    @ZeeGee Awesome Catwalk, you are so talented and creative....you just amaze me o:)

    @FairyGodMother Thank you!
    *walks away like I know what you are talking about*

    Isn't that what we all do when Scilla talks? *Ducks and runs*

    I protest! That's not fair! If I can't walk away from me then you shouldn't be able to either.! (Hey, when did they take away the red faced emoji? Well just imagine it's here. Right Here... Thrice.)

    How's your game going? Are you all installed and creating a new video to amuse me?

    LOL. Ok really, what is up with these emojis. We've lost all our emojis and can't use the 'colon' key to bring them up anymore. First they take away our 'lol' now they've taken away almost everything. :Three more red faced emoji's: I suggest we move over to NRaas chatterbox and irritate entertain the geniuses over there. :eye roll smiley here:

    The video: I got stuck. I tried to portray a scene that I don't have the technical video skills to portray. So I tried to learn the technical video skills. But finally figured out it would take me months to learn. Now I will fall back on what I used to do, just figure out a different way to tell the story, which will take awhile but I'll eventually figure it out. But I wasted a lot of time trying to learn stuff that's beyond my video editing skills. Silly me. The other issue is, like you, I don't like to even fire it up unless I have a few hours to work on it and having a few hours with nothing else to do is rare now! So, it's still in process, and will be here...someday

    I don't know if I'd be able to understand anything they say over there. Do they have red faced emoji's? It might be worth it for the emoji's alone.


    I can't believe you just said that you "wasted time" learning. lol Now I'm shaking my head and walking away. Sheesh!

  • ZeeGeeZeeGee Posts: 5,356 Member
    @scillakees They do have red faced emojis, and thumbs down, etc. The geniuses are there to answer questions but mostly it's people like you and me who have questions or don't understand something. :)

    Don't walk away! Let me explain. Learning something would not be wasted time. But spending lots of time on something that, in the end, you finally recognize is just way over your head seems to me like wasted time. Maybe I got something out of it but doesn't seem like it right now. Frustrating!

    Ya know there are people out there who keep trying to tell me that the internet is instant gratification. I have proof that it's not. >:)

    @scillakees But now you know what I've been busy doing! Thanks for the comment. I'll be back over there to reply in a sec.

    Hellllooooo ..... (hears echo)

    Time for some nostalgia. Does anyone remember Pippi? Pippi has come a long way since my beginner sim making efforts.

    This was my first pic of Pippi:

    I like her first appearance because I can identify with her. B)

    Seriously, your sims have always been beautiful and I think it's amazing what you can do with the store/EA items. Looks like she's gone goth, which dress is this? (This is me, subtly trying really hard to keep on topic of the thread so you don't get locked out)
  • ZeeGeeZeeGee Posts: 5,356 Member
    :smiley: That was a CC outfit for her performance as a singer in Simsovision. I just didn’t have time to film it tho. And now I’m glad cause oh my goodness the talent bar was high this year. But the casino she was standing in is store content!

    I don't remember Pippi from the pic above. The catwalk photo is familiar.

    I have been wondering what is up with the little pink flowers that censor some words that I don't think need censoring.

    Is quoting from an old message necroposting. I hope not because I do want to know what is up with the pink flowers.

    @Me1620 Hi Jodi! I think I've figured out that they're now substituting the flowers for the word 'plum', but it's too late. I already say plum for anything slightly off anyway. :lol: Old habits die hard.

    The new picture is Pippi redone for a singing contest using custom sliders and lots of CC and lighting effects! This version of Pippi has not been on the catwalk before, so you wouldn't remember her. Hmmm, maybe I should put her there?
  • Me1620Me1620 Posts: 4,994 Member
    @ZeeGee - She is beautiful. Maybe I should try custom sliders.

    If you need a break from The Sequel, the catwalk is a good diversion. Will Kevin possibly make an appearance?

    @Me1620 Now the creative juices are flowing!!
  • ZeeGeeZeeGee Posts: 5,356 Member
    @Me1620 I'm a little tired and out of it this morning. Forgot to say, custom sliders are really awesome. I mainly use the face and head ones, cause body ones can cause clipping with the animations. I plunked a bunch in my folder when I first started and didn't know what they did or how to use them. Then I went back and added them a few at a time to see what they did, which was much more productive!
  • ZeeGeeZeeGee Posts: 5,356 Member
    Had a bit of a panic attack this morning as I couldn't find any of my Picturesque saves. Thank goodness for my hoarding of old computer backups!

    The save loaded, I've got a lot of work to do on the sims as you can see. But here's our old friends in front of their old catwalk. I've never seen sims line up like that before! But I've never had so many sims on a lot before starting out either. This is a quick, no frills video to show y'all what I'm dealing with here, lol

    @ZeeGee - I commented on your YouTube page. Quite a site to see the long line of sims. :o:)

    Edit to add: Spent a few hours downloading sliders and watching some YouTubes tutorials. I got lost and started watching other Sim related videos.

    lol That's quite the mob you have. I felt like I was back in the 80's with that big book on my lap muttering "Now where is that Kevin" to myself. o:)
