* WARNING: GRAPHIC INTENSIVE *

Since posting my story "Couples Who Labor Together, Stay Together" my other Sims are now "up in arms", demanding attention from the public too!

So, I promised them that I'd share some of my favorite pictures of them, with you. =D


Without further adieu, here are those pictures . . . .

---

And you thought your job was tough . . .

---

Space . . . The Final Frontier . . .

---

Okay . . . I have a "love" for the stars . . . what can I say?

---

This is how I feel in the kitchen . . .

---

"Letting it all hang out" for extra credit . . .

---

The Great Nanny Experiment!

---

Toilet Training Oddity . . .

---

"Eskimo kisses" with baby . . .

---

Hubby & Wife going to work . . . she was a cop, he was a criminal . . . what a pair!

---

Dead woman serves breakfast, eats then vanishes!

---

Kissing Doubts . . .

---

Don't you LOVE IT when they acknowledge your presence?

A great selection! Where do we read about their names, life histories, etc?

:grin: Here's one of my recent favorites along those lines:



(Gina was working on her third Secret Society Suspect friend, and while the other girl there was finishing cracking up from a joke, she suddenly looked straight into the camera, with that priceless expression on her face.)

(Also note that she has zits. Are young adults supposed to get zits? She keeps pretty clean in general. And she doesn't have the "apply acne cream" action on her mirrors. I should probably just do a no-op Change Appearance, and that might fix it; but she looks sort of cute with zits. (Okay, so am I besotted, or what?))

Where'd all those nannies come from, anyway?

Don't have any of the "background" info written up (yet) . . . I was too frazzled from the massive revolt going on! = O lol

Perhaps sometime I'll write up descriptions for the images, not sure yet. Then again, if I'm asked about a particular photo I won't hesitate to explain! :winky:

No, no . . . you're not besotted (at least not yet I hope! The night is too young! lol)

You're not alone, I didn't know Young Adults were suppose to get acne either (I thought it was just a "teen" thing).

The Nannies were an experiment . . . =)

One night I was bored and playing the "Loner" house in Strangetown. Ajay had just adopted a baby (Dagmar) and he was (in a word) having a "mental breakdown" (yes, I helped that happen because (and I forget why now) he did something to tick me off . . . I guess he didn't know enough about women to understand Estrogen is NOT to be toyed with!) lol

So at any rate, he was going crazy, calling the police and the fire department over and over again. This also happens to be the way he adopted Dagmar (by using every option on the telephone), so I had him call over a Nanny. Then the thought came to mind "I wonder how many Nannies will show up if I keep having him call?", so this is what I did.

In the end, there were thirteen nannies in that house (I finally had him stop calling because the small house he lived in couldn't accommodate any more than that). Dagmar never had so much attention in her life . . . it was comical to watch.

If you try (or anyone else tries) the "Nanny Experiment" do let me know how it works out for you! =)

Those are fabulous! The potty training one looks like your toddler is trying to get back into the womb! LOL

And it really freaks me out when they look at me. Its, like, WHAT?!?! Whaddya want....go eat some cereal, already!

I must say though, that the male sims 'acknowleding your presence' is a nice looking one. Wanna package him up, if you have the time and/or inclination, and share him? :wink3:

Sure thing . . . he is rather hot isn't he? (hehe) I love when they "turn out" to be nice looking!

The trick is "selective breeding" . . . Yes, it sounds "clinical" but it sure helps . . . =D

Also, you should see how the boys turned out from my "The Couple That Labors Together, Stays Together" story turned out . . . Drake and Donovan . . . woooot! hehe

I have to jump off of here and shower, but will post back later . . . with "the boys" . . . :winky:

Alright . . . I just need to figure out "how" to package up "just him" and nothing else . . . Hmmmm . . . .

He was "genetically created" (i.e. - not in BS) so . . . how can I do this? lol

Thanks! =D

Sim Surgery with Sim PE. There is a thread here somewhere where I told greg how to do it, but I'm too lazy to look for it you can clone any sim in your game with this. However, don't leave the clone file in your saved sims folder or bodyshop won't run

Hmmm . . . alright Hon . . . I'll have to hunt down that post!

Thanks! :winky:

It might be hard to find because it's right in the middle of the Tales of Happy Valley.

Look at the note right after this one.

Two messages later was where I posted the download link for She. I just realized that there is another strong reason to clone the character's appearance instead of trying to duplicate the character file: At the time I made that screen shot, She was pregnant! That could turn out to be an interesting surprise when you imported a character!

Thanks So Much Greg . . . I was starting to get nervous . . . hehe

I'm not sure how this will work, so I did a backup of the neighborhood (I only play Pleasantview, deleted the other two long ago). Do you know what? I have over 1000 sims in my neighborhood! = O (based on character file count - which I'm guessing also counts for NPC characters) ~ still . . that's a lot of Sims! = O hehe

Omigoodness! Yes, that's a lot of sims! I don't think any of my neighborhoods have grown that large yet.

If you start running into problems with your game, you might want to try JM Pescado's overflow-prevention hacks from More Awesome Than You.

Oh My! So that's a lot of sims? Is it too many? <<-- paranoid you know =)

Thanks for the tip regarding the "overflow hacks" . . . I appreciate it (as I can use all the help I can get it seems =)

Hopefully, Zen will like Brishen after I get him uploaded . . . he's such a doll! =)

Hey Zen . . . =)

You can find "him" over Here. =D

~*~ Carrot ~*~

Got him, Carrot. Thanks!!

Once I get him settled into Founders Ridge, (my prosperity challenge neighborhood, that I have strayed from the rules in-LOL) I will update you on his progress. I promise to have my single ladies take veeeery good care of him, too. Well, until he decides to settle down with one of them, as I'll likely make him a family sim.

And I'll be sure to let you know if there are any problems, too. I'll prolly be playing this evening.

I finally found a picture of a sim looking at me:

Her name is Vivyan Fenian, but this picture was taken while she was leaving her aunt and uncle's place. She was meant to be sleeping over, but instead she spent all night playing the guitar on the rooftop. Then she complained that they hadn't let her sleep and left! And Auntie Neesh (at least I think it was Neesh) had made her pork chops!
