    Hey Sir Copeland! I don't suppose you're sneaking my giant beautiful flowering version of the Glauer Tree in there are you? SOOOO much nicer for a courtyard than yet another fountain! Just sayin'.... :wink:

    I swear though, VENICE! I feel like this set is being made JUST FOR ME! LOL Monte Vista is hands down my favorite world and now I'm dreaming of revamping it into Venice somehow! You may not have been able to give me my long hair and long skirts but dang Copeland, I love you! ((TOTALLY CHASTE HUGGLES))

    I love the fence, I really do... but I (wishfully thinking) would love a fence the same height and design, but without the Celtic cross design (so that I can use the Celtic cross as more of a decorative element at corners or in other ways... I hope that makes sense)

    Not yet but this is suppose to be a big set I think so I'm hopeful.

    I can't wait to see today's hint. I hope we get to see the gondelas,a tunnel(?)or other pc if it exist.

    Umm... I got the urge to prat about in CAW a little bit, just to mess around with canals and houses in the hope of making something Venice like and... umm... yeah... that one might take me a while! :XD:

    Wouldn't it be great if the Store team was going to initially create Venice as a world, but when that got cancelled, they decided to stuff all the goodies they made into one huge set/venue for the last hurrah?

    Like a super, uber Store set (the "Amore" stuff pack)??

    I'm really excited that we are getting canals and canal boats! (Especially since I can't play properly IP). I'm going to redo France (once again!) and Monte Vista (again!).

    I'm totally clueless on what this venue is going to look like. The HUGE window through me off, so now, I'm thinking it must have a building created for giants--LOL.

    Still sad, but feeling a bit better today...

    Looking at this painting the store released last week I see a couple of things. First off some of the buildings to the upper left look like they have the fence attached to balconies.

    Also on the dead left I see a hole with moss around it. Anybody want to guess what that could be?

    The Gondelas have heart shaped seats.

    Now I know this is just a painting but it's probebly very close to what the screenshot will look like.

    erm, that is actually the fence. :shock:

    I love that we can make the water so close to the buildings! I wonder if it's going to work like the Grandpa's Grove tractor? Seeing that pole in the water up ahead makes me think that. The picture is very beautiful though. I wonder if they had an artistic sim paint it, or if it's a decor painting.... hmmmm.....

    I just love the first looks! :P

    We will miss your work, Copeland!

    If we pay you 1 million dollars, would you be ok to keep making Sims 3 store stuff for 2 or 3 more years?

    BIG was in reference to the window.

    The canals and gondola are the only PC for this release.

    Will other boats be able to travel down the canals?
    It's kind of sad that I have to point out that anything I say is only just my opinion and may be a different one from someone else.

    Hey, jcp, I never thought about that!!

    It would be neat if the canals were compatible with the row boats at least, as everyone needs a swan in their canal... *winks*

    However, based on what someone else surmised earlier, I think the canals might work like the grandpa's grove tractor. So, it may only work with the gondolas, which is OK by me.

    I do wonder if the gondolier comes with the gondola? Wouldn't it be neat if the gondolier also sings? Like a romantic song or two? :mrgreen:

    Hmmm... :)

    I'm hoping not just the gondolas of course. As for the gondolier that would be amazing but I worry that it won't be the case, store NPC is hard to come by :(

    I'm so bummed and sad...

    As of last night, my brother was able to fix my computer, but knowing this is the last set/venue of the Store... I don't know what to post... I just can't get excited over it, even though the pics look so lovely...

    Where is everyone migrating to??? Twitter?? Facebook?? A different fan website??

    Soo sad... :(

    It is extremely bitter sweet! :cry: I personally have dusted off my Twitter account (still trying to figure out how that one works) :lol: and have also reactivated my Facebook account. I have joined the group tinydancer has created:

    I had wondered the same thing earlier in this thread about the gondolier (or maybe it was in the related August thread). That would be so cool!

    I'm also wondering if the gondelas can be used in any body of water that boats can. Eg the waterfall location in Aurora Skies.

    Also Copeland said that the canals are pc. I'm hoping that means you hear music when sims are going thru them.

    Is there a tunnel?
