    Annin,

    LOVE the shirts! I have now downloaded all of them! You are going to have to tell me how to upload a style. I uploaded my MOO shirt, too, after a fashion: I uploaded the pattern.

    EVERYONE,

    I edited my previous post (with Julianna in her MOO shirt) and added the Exchange link to my pattern. Just find the T-shirt (from base game) and change to this pattern to have your own MOO shirt.


    I can already tell this class is going to be great fun!

    Hi Zoo and Taryn! PLEASE REGISTER ME! I'm so looking forward to this class!!! :mrgreen:

    Annin! I LOVE the tee shirt! :thumbup: And I didn't notice the candy at first, but when I went back to see, I noticed an apple and a notebook on the table too, lol! Annin is completely prepared for class!!! :P

    Gotta get to the candy store next...

    Cath, dear TEAMMATE, you are now on the class roster. And you and Annin stop trying to bribe our teacher! She is susceptible to bribery, you can tell by the shift of her eyes!

    Annin is definitely gonna be teacher's favorite with all that yummy candy! And I want a MOO shirt! :D

    YAY! P-Pup is back! I hear you and T had big fun on the visit. I think the phrase "building sponge" was used. :D



    This sounds so great " Professor Taryn Tempestwind" :D and the pictures annin posted just make me smile - so cute, so funny - great t-shirt :D

    I took your "looks like fun" and made that into "Register Me!" LOL! I hope you will join us for the class, Lari!

    By the way, I would love for someone with a GREAT hand for (and a unique eye) for using PATTERNS in CAS, someone who, say, taught me a lot about how to look at the patterns in a new way in CAS, would come in and TEACH a Zoo U course on Create-A-Style. HINT HINT! :shock:

    WHOOT, and Sue P is with us, too! This is going to be a fun class!

    SQUEE! Army is back as well! This is that great bunch of students from Course 9. We are still missing some folks, so you guys spread the word, okay?

    Everyone is all registered. Let's go sit in a corner and plot---I mean PLAN some hijin--- some STUDY SESSIONS for Taryn's class.

    Does anyone have a good source for over-ripe fruits? :twisted:

    The candy! The candy! Annin gets an A + already!!! I can be bribed! Plus! You saw that candy, and you know it was MOOed. Annin already knows what he is doing! He is another one that I will watch for shenanigans and hijinks in class!


    But wait!!! Take a close look at Annin's first picture! I just noticed! His Fatty sim is at the top of the boat with a triumphant fist pump in the air....and look..he is wearing cow patterned sexy swim trunks! :lol::lol::lol: I laughed so hard!

    Scoutie loves kitties! So don't worry Zoo. She thinks "they are sooo fluffy!!!" She trembles with excitement when she sees the kitty at the vet! I think she wants one. She loves my daughters bird too! He got out one day..my fault, again, and he crash landed on the floor and Scout ran over and just sat and stared at him.

    And Zoo looks marvelous!

    T

    SEE! See how you are! A TEACHER willing to accept a BRIBE!

    A short, but true, Zoo Story:

    I once was in the middle of a College Algebra course and a young man in the back raised his hand. I thought he had been paying attention and had a question so I asked him what he wanted.

    He said, "I just want to say that if you need any yard work done, I am very available. I JUST need a "D" in this class!"

    When I told my husband (AKA Mr. Zoo) this story he looked at me in such a betrayed way and said, "And you didn't take him up on that?!"

    The Point:
    Taryn and Mr. Zoo would both end up in trouble if allowed to run rampant on their own! :mrgreen:

    You can certainly do that, but we have such fun when the class is "live"! Won't you register and join us next Saturday? Lots of your friends are here and you would be most welcome.

    You mean how to upload a clothing with a CAP? Well,that was the first time I used CAP... :D
    I made tree color CAPs and exported them, and then installed them in my game. After that I put the patterns and exported the clothing.

    Cath, dear TEAMMATE, you are now on the class roster. And you and Annin stop trying to bribe our teacher! She is susceptible to bribery, you can tell by the shift of her eyes!

    Well,I'll try to walk away with the honors! :lol:
    I'm so excited!!! :D:D:D

    It has been noted that all enrollees are possible and probable trouble-makers. I expect hecklers. I expect gum-popping-wise-cracking- detention-loving-rascals. think I will be booed off the stage and maybe have tomatoes...which I hate and am allergic to, thrown at me. I'm gonna wear a raincoat and galloshes.

    And all I've ever asked for was candy!!

    What MOO can do for You



    I wanted to show you, if you are on the fence about joining us at MOO U..what it can do for you. How it can transform your builds.

    I made a simple blank box as a backdrop. A simple room that we all might build build. It isn’t a house, it’s just a stage.


    Here is a shot of a room..BASE game only. Everyone of us can build this with just sims 3 installed. I quickly put some furnishings in it, I recolored some, basically, I did what every beginner learning to build did. I plunked the furniture down! At first glance, it’s a nice room.
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-158_zps90037011.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-158_zps90037011.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-158_zps90037011.jpg"/></a>


    But look closer. See how the curtains are bleeding into the bookshelves? The rug is too undersized for the space. See how we have big gaps between the bookshelves and the fireplace that are just not where we’d align them if we were building our own real house? See how they are blocking some of the window? The library table is too far from the sofa. We’d push it back, closer to the sofa. The desk looks squished into the room. Oh sure, the sim can use it. But it’s not very appealing, and it’s not a good use of space, but the homeowner clearly needed a little home office. And we needed something under those big windows to the left, but…we don’t really have anything sizable that fits, so those end tables don’t look very good. They are the wrong scale.



    Our next picture shows what MOO can do for you in BASE game only again. Everything in the picture, you definitely have. See the difference??
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-162_zps8960a33c.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-162_zps8960a33c.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-162_zps8960a33c.jpg"/></a>

    I changed some patterns…I added some items. I pulled, I pushed and I arranged furniture. I made the fireplace look like a solid, built in piece. See how it fits the window space now? The curtains aren’t bleeding through the bookshelves. Plants, and little décor pieces really make the room look lived in.


    And the desk..the little home office… I knocked out the walls of the stairs and tucked it back into the nook.
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-163_zps543412c7.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-163_zps543412c7.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-163_zps543412c7.jpg"/></a>



    “but wait”, you say……”Taryn..We can’t put things under the stairs. The game clearly says they aren’t usable. “
    Aren’t they?! Little Fairy Taryn Tempestsim disagrees.
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-170_zps5b554a90.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-170_zps5b554a90.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-170_zps5b554a90.jpg"/></a>

    And the bookshelves are usable…See? She just got a book…
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-172_zps517d4260.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-172_zps517d4260.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-172_zps517d4260.jpg"/></a>

    “Well, Taryn, good grief..the fireplace is going to catch on fire and burn everything down. That’s a fire trap!” you think…

    MMmmNope! Look at this picture. That’s Fairy Taryn putting her handy skill to work and making the fireplace fireproof. Nothing’s going to catch on fire now, and it looks great! So much nicer.
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-173_zps20ab7cb4.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-173_zps20ab7cb4.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-173_zps20ab7cb4.jpg"/></a>

    Now let’s take it one step further. Now I added other items from expansion packs that I own, stuff packs, store items. Nothing that is CC..everything is EA made and safe for your game. But now it really is looking homey and quaint. Now this little room has some ecclectic style!
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-176_zps6af266cf.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-176_zps6af266cf.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-176_zps6af266cf.jpg"/></a>

    Look at the new home office storage space. See the toybox and the toys. Doesn’t it look like Mom or Dad could work from home, (or play the Sims) and the children could play nearby. This adds some realism. We all live like this! Children need toys in the main area of our homes so we can get some work done and keep an eye on them. To the left, I took out the wall and utilized that space for a file cabinet and some built-in storage. Space that was being wasted.
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-181_zpse79f89f5.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-181_zpse79f89f5.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-181_zpse79f89f5.jpg"/></a>

    Here’s a custom little touch. Doesn’t it add some snappy décor?
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-177_zpsf37ff431.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-177_zpsf37ff431.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-177_zpsf37ff431.jpg"/></a>

    So basically, MOO will help you make the most of what you have.

    And you can go from this:
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-158_zps90037011.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-158_zps90037011.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-158_zps90037011.jpg"/></a>

    To this:
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-175_zpsc3bf753f.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-175_zpsc3bf753f.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-175_zpsc3bf753f.jpg"/></a>
    To this!
    <a href="http://s400.photobucket.com/user/taryntempestwind/media/Screenshot-176_zps6af266cf.jpg.html&quot; target="_blank"><img src="http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp84/taryntempestwind/Screenshot-176_zps6af266cf.jpg&quot; border="0" alt=" photo Screenshot-176_zps6af266cf.jpg"/></a>

    And more!
    Come join us. Come on, get off that fence! Come on down to the pasture/playground with us MOOers!


    Bring the candy. Leave the tomatoes.
