    i don't know what the benders actually are.whith every rewrite they change things i thought i knew about them.

    The unpredictable trope? I think that's a thing. :D

    Tropes? Great question! I have so many stories so I'm not sure which story you want to hear tropes from.

    @AdamsEve1231 Pick any. :) Which one's the most interesting or has the most fun tropes?

    @AdamsEve1231 You can also just think of which tropes are your favorites in general, independent of the ones used in your stories if that's easier. :)

    I need help with 2 things guys.

    One: How do i make a gif to put in my signature for the blog? IK how to add a link to an image but i don't know the basics of making the actual image.

    Two: I use Blogger for my blog. I have the top-bar thing that has 'shortcuts' to pages. How do i add a page to that bar?

    It's okay @CathyTea, we can only see her head. The rest of her is hidden by the flowers. Furthermore, it's not a suggestive pic because it is actually a thing to have a bath outside, so perfectly innocent. :) Also, the dog is looking away, which is very courteous. :)

    There are some gif making websites out there you can use to string your images together. As for blogger, I don't use it so I'm not sure myself! I use Weebly.

    Well, a running theme in my stories... redheads... :smiley: I'm a natural redhead so you know... mostly because I want to #represent. Kass is a redhead in her story series, Rachel Colt in Colt Family Traitacy, Cora Mae in Darkness May Dream, Ruby in From Riverview With Love and My Life With Criminals, and of course, my Simself. My favorite trope would probably be the fiery redhead. Haha. Plus redhaired Sims, in my opinion, are gorgeous.

    That's ok, @CathyTea, something super awkward happened in my Simself story, and I seriously debated not including it... and rewrote it a few times, but decided since it was an ISBI, I had to be true to the story. And I've written far more blush worthy content in KCLKF, KFLL, I&S, FRWL, and DMD. :blush:

    And I agree with @simscognito. Cog said it much better than I could think of in a faster amount of time. It's whimsy in my opinion.

    yeah but unlike joseph lizzy won't go home and scream i have to pee.

    You do realize I will have complete control over your sim selfie in my game (and story). Endless opportunities to make your sim selfie have bladder control issues. Do we want to go there? :grimace:

    @AdamsEve1231 I agree, the fiery redhead trope is cool. I particularly love Merida from Brave. Everything about her is just... AWESOME. XD

    I have two red heads in Gen 5 of The Swansons-

    @CathyTea @simscognito what does "Founding by Royal Blood" trope mean?

    :smiley: Yeah, fiery redhead characters are good! I think the character I mentioned to @simscognito earlier (the one with long hair I'm going to introduce into TIOL) fits this trope.

    I wonder if it will continue that way in my story. My sim selfie chose a redhead. Joseph Jr. is engaged to a redhead. Hope (daughter of my sim selfie) is a redhead. And I have to add that one of the four sim selfie women for Generation 3's heir is a redhead. Now if he chooses her is not up to me. But if not, we still have Hope (pun intended) and/or Joseph Jr. (his fiance @MadameLee is a redhead) to continue a redhead lineage.

    Hello Simmers, I'm excited. I came across an EA Origin gift card I completely forgot I had, and used it to purchase the Get Together expansion on sale right now. My <3 is happy! Okay, just thought I'd share.

    Anyone have any favorite things from the GT expansion?

    OH, yay! It's so fun! It's the one with Windenburg, right? If so, Windenburg is AWESOME! It's the best.

    Clubs can be useful in ISBIs, if you set things like skilling or homework for the activities.

    I've also seen people use clubs for finding friends or lovers. That's cool!

    I really adore the Windenburg premades, too, especially Jacques Villareal. (And Hugo and, especially, Lucas! I've actually got a Lucas fanclub in my mind because he's so awesome in my Dogacy! :) )

    But mostly it's just Windenburg, which is so big, so beautiful, and has so many lovely outdoor spaces! Almost gives a TS3 feel, since the neighborhoods are HUGE, so the Sims can take big long walks! :)

    I second the love of Lucas. Windenburg really did step it up with the pre-mades. (I just looked him up in your story and he looks really good with a beard! I also love that you made him a painter; he's a musician in my story.) His genetics are awesome, too; his kids in my game came out adorable. So you have that to look forward to.

    That might be a fun question one of these days-pick a premade and see what their descendants look like in other people's games. I'd be genuinely curious to see how similar or different they come out.

    I actually keep having this idea to do a Pre-made story, but a Generation after the current lot. Give some couples kids or age up ones they have, shack up some pre-mades together and give them kids and call it "Pre-Mades: The Next Generation." And then I realise that I have too many ideas going on at once and shelf it for the thousandth time...

    I'm a fan of @DreamsInPixels Gunther Goth in Dusk to Dawn. #SimSquish

    @Munterbacon's Shaela is gorgeous. And so is Charlotte in @Dancer-freak's Blakesley Legacy.

    @simscognito I love Merida too. And Anna in Frozen... I swear she's me in so many ways.

    @LegacySims2017 Oh yes, I think I was the rare soul who voted for Hope to be the gen heir. I liked Juju too.

    Did you snag my Sim selfie? For future generations? No worries if you didn't. My library is a little wonky. Plus I've made edits to her.
