    So I've missed a lot in this thread! haha and welp a lot has happened in my game I think lolz

    Riley aged up into a child! I think he's pretty adorable ^_^ I kinda took a glimpse at what he'd look like aged up and um...I not so sure about him...or bailey for that matter haha. We shall see!

    And just as a refresher, here is his older sister Bailey. She'll be a teen in about a week I think *nods*
    Screenshot-262.jpg

    And also I tried to move my sims but I REALLY didn't like the house they were in and honestly none of the houses in Twinbrook were what I was looking for SO I decided to try my hand at building O.O. I built a house when I first started playing TS3 a couple months back but it was really me not caring about the way it looked and not really knowing anything about it at all.

    This time I actually read up a bit on building and such and I actually have an unfurnished version uploaded to the Exchange HERE. I moved my sims into it because it was pretty affordable, but after I moved them in and began furnishing it my game crashed and i lost all of it! >.< So out of frustration I said "EFF IT!" and I just started decorating and furnishing despite how expensive the house was going to be. Just mean my sims would have to wait and make more money before they can move....or until I cave and use a money cheat <.< >.>

    But again like I said I'm no builder or decorator but here's what I've got so far. The kitchen is about the only thing I think I'm done with. Everything else still needs to be situated and recolored and such *nods*

    For some reason, I can't get Errortrap or Overwatch to work on my Mac. I tried unzipping the file, but all I got was this unusable file. Wha?

    Do you know how to install .package files?

    If not: http://modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Sims_3:Installing_Package_Files

    You totally should.

    He's been a regular addition to my towns for a long time now. Gets along surprisingly well with my Evil Empress despite not actually being evil in any way.

    ... Gets along maybe a little *too* well, really. :roll: :wink:

    (Old pic, but I still love it!)

    Haha, that's priceless~! Yeah, I'll definitely add him sometime soon. :mrgreen:

    I've got a couple more cute pics of Nova

    Nova1.jpg
    Novabottle.jpg
    She's so easy to take pictures of. She always looks happy. Ella on the other hand is a bit tricky. She always looks all serious business. OR she's having a cry for no apparent reason. Lol.

    Ella.jpg

    Their mum, Katie, treated herself to an iceblock as a Mother's Day treat. And stuck it through her face. Good times.

    I also just finished making a new sim a couple of hours ago. So I'm thinking of starting a new game with her soon. Just not sure what I want to do with her yet.

    How on earth do people get that close to children and pets for screenshots? I can't seem to get that close. Am I doing something wrong?

    Which ones in particular? The toddlers eyes are by pralinesims and the last sims eyes are by Tifa. The hair in the last pic is a Newsea hair. Swallowtail I think it's called. :)

    The hairs are pretty but I find it so creepy for toddlers to have hair like that.

    The trick is get into TAB mode, then apart from just using the zoom function, also use the arrow keys and Q & E to get closer and move up and down.

    Her hair is quite dark and her highlights are quite light, so that's what gives it that effect.

    Haha. I suppose it is a little. But I always found the bald heads a little creepier. :lol:
    I guesss it doesn't seem that strange to me, because at 2/3 years old I had unusually long hair too.

    Hey everyone, I uploaded a new sim yesterday named Emma MacNary! Feel free to rec or download her: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=5751481

    (I'm not sure why one of her traits shows up as "Unknown", since it shows up in-game and in CAS. It should be Social Butterfly.)

    Her everyday and formal outfits were inspired by the Hollister patterns, although I couldn't achieve the full effect since I don't have any Hollister-esque dresses in my game. I intentionally gave Emma that popular yet simple look because she is the kind of girl who no one expects to be smart, yet turns out to be a total nerd on the inside. Pics from my photoshoot:
