@EEtheridge the cabinets were by for the toughest elements to place for me. But they are much better than they were in TS3. I love that you can stack more than one cabinet on top of another. But I could never get them to stack in the area over my bar, I'm guessing because there was no wall there. I may try adding a wall then removing it, but I'm afraid that will removed the cabinets too. I will definitely be playing around with them some more in future builds.

MOO is here (in mod form, anyway) !!!!!!!!!!!!. That is the single thing I've most missed the most in Sims4 building/design. Even more than CASt, I think, and not having CASt is HUGE. Off to try it out in game... http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=535846

Omg, excited! I wonder what happens if someone who doesn't have the mod downloads a lot you used it on? If it keeps things in the spot you put them in, that would be great and we could just warn people that if they move something they may not be able to put it back.

Unfortunately, the downloader does need the mod, or the objects will not remain overlapped.

I've been put in the Established group? Wow. Thanks!
I might not get an entry in for #2 but I sure have been lurking. Happy Simming!

Shoot. I'll use it for any builds that I don't plan to share, but I guess I won't be using it on anything I upload to the gallery.

Everyone's entries look amazing!
I have my Sim done, and just finishing up the decorating and patio space of his Penthouse...it's been a fun challenge so far!

Hi guys. we have decided on entry categories and they are as follows:

I did challenge #1 and I am not listed? Did you overlook my entry? Its on page eight below conutrykris1play's entry. I'd like to see how I did. Thanks! ~Twilanite

Hey hon, apologies, we did have you down, looks like I just managed to miss you off the list somehow, after working 14 hours yesterday, I think my brain might have been a little mushed

PacifistBF3

oh i wish I could share. But being "new" I have to get points to be a full on member. Too bad I have a great little lot I made.

Carewren123

@PacifistBF3 you could still post your entry. Just when posting the link to you slideshow leave out the http

@PacifistBF3 What @Carewren123 says if you have your entry, just fill out the entry form and where you place the link, paste the whole link and remove https:// and you will be fine

Sweet, I'm in the "Established" category. I guess that makes sense, since there's no "Weird Little ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Who Kinda Know What They're Doing in a Not Really Sort of Way" category. XD

KraftySim

Haha! I'm excited to be in the Starter group. I was planning on tagging myself as a beginner before the categories were removed. There are so many great builders, I'm just happy to be a part of the challenges. :-) Uploading pictures now for my submission.

Keep in mind - these are our first impressions based on one build. With so many entries (woot!), we felt it was important to divide the field in some way, but it was very difficult to do with just one entry to go on. These are suggested entry categories going forward; and, if you have a win or two under your belt in one category, it's a good idea to challenge yourself by entering in a higher category in the future.

Also - we are currently working on feedback for each category and hope to have that up for each group very soon. With the Sims 3 Challenge still active as well as this one, we will be looking for some more behind-the-scenes people very soon. If you have a few spare hours each week and you enjoy these challenges, I'd encourage you to consider become involved with judging, organizing, or hosting. We look for people who have entered several challenges, are dependable, like to provide feedback, and are generally encouraging and friendly. More info on this to come after Challenge #2

countrykris1play

I have done many Sims 3 challenges and first and current challenge her for Sims 4. I would be willing to help out, I could do the organizing part. I am a very organized person. I would offer to judge, but I'm not good at writing a critique on someones work.

Thank you SO much to everyone who gave me 'likes' and 'lols' so I could obtain member status again and post pics/links! VERY much appreciated. I tried to return to the favor too, but most had already gotten enough to be members again. Y'all are SO sweet!

I posted a thread with a link to what would have been my entry for Challenge #1 here - http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/789136/englam-sim-properties-e-s-p#latest if anyone wants to take a look.

Good luck to everyone entering Challenge #2, I think I'll skip this round, but look forward to hopefully having time to enter Challenge #3. *Hugs*

I posted my entry last night and the boards said my post had to be approved? Any idea what that's about?

You did really well @KraftySim! Hard to believe you are a Starter after this build

Will the winners announcement be next Wednesday then? @BuildnShare

Weird....I keep trying to post my entry but it says it needs to be approved first!
Sorry if there are suddenly three posts by me waiting to be approved, haha!

KraftySim

Thank you, @celdys0n! I had fun, I never spent a lot of game time focusing on building previously. I'm enjoying it so far!

@misscbong, I was experiencing the same thing last night! Read this post: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/785356/your-comment-will-appear-after-it-is-approved-work-around

KraftySim

@BlackRoseBronwen - wow!! It is all amazing but I think the atrium might be my favorite room. Very nice!

gamerrecordtv

I love challenges! :)

BlackRoseBronwen

@KraftySim Thank you very much! That was a fun room to build and completely frustrating with building the pattern on the ground. Also the fact that columns disappear when you are trying to take pictures was frustrating as well. I had to knock down some walls to get the pictures then put them back up again so you could see that feature.
