    Well, you know how you can make things different colors, etc with the color wheel? Maybe you can pick different patterns from the list in game and replace the ones you don't like with them. I haven't gone in CAS to see if that is possible yet.

    Oh yeah, no unfortunately you can't do that. You can change colors/patterns of the material underneath the candy design but the design is stuck on top. I'm going to Google this real quick and see if anybody else smarter than me managed to figure it out. There are some very resourceful people in this community who, if it can be done, they have usually already done it! :D

    Ah, well that bites! :lol: There are most certainly some talented modders out there who, I am sure, are able to recolor that stuff, but of course it would then have to be put back into the game as CC, I would imagine. Bummer they 'force' the average simmer into not being able to use different patterns, but I guess they figure if you don't want the 'sweet treats' you wouldn't buy it anyway.

    They don't know me very well because I like to do my best to 'complete' my collections! :-o :lol: Good luck, Meg! I am going to go stretch out now and most likely miss the item I was gunning for in the process. :wink:

    Google tutorials for meshing. Not sure if the forum rules allow me to name the site but it has been around for a long time.

    I am with you on completing my collection. Eventually I will have everything, I just wish it could all be used in any theme. Thanks for the input Tina, have a good night!

    Meshing huh? I will look into that Me, I wasn't sure what to look for. Thank you! 8)

    Edit: Okay so I looked into the mesh tutorials and... it is WWWAAAYYY over my head! I guess I'll just stick with what I have. LOL!

    I have watched some tutorials on more advanced building and creating but never had the patience to follow up with trying it on my own.

    Ohhh, I hope some things sell out early. I really don't want to have to be up at 3am to catch the Greenhouse (if it gets there again). The hubby thinks I'm crazy enough as it is. Midnight would be better. *nodnodnod*

    LOL, you did figure out I wanted! Alas, I did not wake to grab those pants. I missed it by about 1.5 hours.

    Now here I sit sipping my coffee, head hung down in sorrow and shame. *sniff* hehe ;)

    Hello fellow stalkers - today's the big day. Hopefully it'll go at least as far as the GH, but if not, then hopefully that will be one of the Memorial Day sale items.

    Oh my gosh! A wonderful simmer to whom I have never spoken or met, gifted me those pants! :mrgreen: Now I can stop crying (lol) in my coffee and hold my head up high again. :lol:

    It is so funny how such a small, but thoughtful gesture, can make someone's day. Thanks so much, ObviouSecret, for making me smile this morning! *big hug*

    Just a heads up to those of you waiting for the next big venue to come up on the rotation. I am not able to update the spreadsheet too often today. So, please watch the DD page to see the actual time of the deals. You never know what the store team has planned.

    Right now deals are changing at 25 after the hour.

    When stalkers come out of hiding... er... Lurkers. When lurkers come out of hiding! lol

    I'm glad it made you smile! And thank you very much for my own gift! :mrgreen:

    If the Greenhouse sells as fast as it did when it came up at the beginning of this round, it will sell out in about a minute. Rather than having a limited number that sell out so fast, I think it would be nice if the item was offered for 5 minutes with no limit. Then, at that point, the limited number could come into effect. This would allow for simmers watching at the turn of the deal who have slow internet connections or slower browser refresh rates to have an opportunity to get that deal.

    I'll second. I have to be at work until 9PM tonight and then back at work at 6AM so I'll have just enough time to watch what happens with the end of this repeat before I have to head straight to sleep! :wink:

    For Memorial Day, I hope they puts everyone's WL on sale! :mrgreen: :shock: :D

    I hope a new rotation starts up today! I love being surprised by each deal. I also love that they were so short. More deals per day!

    Haha... made you come out! :mrgreen: It is great to see you and you are very welcome!

    Awww Dicey, what a sweet thing to say. :oops: Thank you! *hugs*

    Awesome idea, Me! I do wish they'd leave it up long enough for more people to get it this time. A big thanks goes out to you for the spreadsheet and helping everyone keep track of the deals. It is a very kind and selfless thing to do and we all are very grateful! :-)

    Also agree with the idea of a new list starting after that because I am wanting to spend my SimPoints too! *pouts and stomps foot* :lol:


    Oh what the heck? *big group hugs all around* :lol:

    Oh, for the love of pants, no. A minute? That's even worse than the market going in two. I don't know if I can be that fast while sleepy (assuming my internet is fast enough). Maybe I shouldn't bother, but I really want that stupid greenhouse!

    This, this, a thousand times this.

    I wonder if the silly bunny toothbrush holder will appear, and again for 2 hours... I kind of hope they skip it. :lol:

    I'm kinda hoping the two hours for the rabbit toothbrush was an error and they'll rectify it to be one hour for this rotation -- I'm getting so paranoid about missing the greenhouse that I'm wondering if I should risk sleep deprevation, but then what'll happen if it doesn't appear...
