AUGH .. weeping and groaning! I got the first part of my story shot and the second part all set up (need a lot of set up) .. went to shoot it and BOO HOO the mod (kids harvest) I needed is broken! I tried to find and use a few poses but alas they are for adults. Still trying!

Don't know if this would work, but maybe you could try putting the harvestables in the kid's inventory. If it's an edible plant then your sim could eat it while standing near the plant. And snap a pic of the kid with the plant in his/her hand to stage it like they'd actually harvested the thing.
@lisabee2 Do you use the pose player? There are kneeling poses for "playing with toys" on the animation list where they are on their knees and reaching forward. You could position them near the plant and have them do the toy pose?
FINALLY finished building the lot I needed for my story. I am a terrible builder so it took me ages, but I kind of like it will try to get the story done in the next few days.
Hey @Carewren123 I was just flicking through the old challenges and decided to move my August 2015 submission to my Sims Stories site instead of it being on Lilliana, to have them all in one place. Would you mind changing the link for it on here please? The link is https://simstoriesbylizzie.wordpress.com/2016/07/23/first-light/
I have all the screencaps for my entry! Should be able to finish writing it today - tomorrow at the latest. I'm so glad I built that lot though. Sure it's not amazing, but with some fiddling with camera angles it pulls the setting off =p
Really nervous about entering though - do I just post the link here when it's done?

@lizzielilyyyy Changed it. And changed the tag since your forum name has changed since then too.

@Thymeless Can't wait to see your entry and yes post the link here when you're ready. I'm sure the build looks great, I can tell you've put a lot of heart into it
I have my submission done! It follows all the stipulations (15 images/under 2k words) but that really was just for the sake of the "challenge" -- I would like this placed in the "for fun" section this month, please.
Since I doubt many people here often visit the Stories and Legacies forum and would otherwise miss this, I have a feeling those that enjoy doing short stories might enjoy this: The Poetry/Song Lyrics Illustration Challenge. No time limits, no voting, just a "do it as you feel like it" and then all submissions get collected onto the master thread. Pick out a favorite poem or song and illustrate the lines with your Sims game of choice!
Sorry for not coming so long. I have problems with WordPress, which seems to be fed up with my heavy pictured story, and now I can't save what I write in HTML. That means the end for my Bears story full of screenshots. So now I'm thinking what to do about the situation.
To ease the stress I dive into building and making videos with my Bears, that bring me a lot of fun.
Happy simming and writing, everyone!
@chealsycat Aw, I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I would suggest moving over to Blogger or something, but... I don't know how feasible that would be.

Brilliant @Carewren123 .. what a great idea that should work
TY @CitizenErased14 .. that is a great idea too .. I also have the silex toy from ATS so it cold be positioned kind of under and they could reach to pic it up ... I have all part 1 shots and the story sketched out .. so off I go to perhaps get this in right under the wire ...

Oh, phooey! Don't give up, @chealsycat ! I am sure that we can find a solution to your WordPress woes when you're ready to have another try at it.... until then, have fun with the YouTubes! And let me know when you want to do a little WordPress trouble-shooting together!

Yes, I'm thinking about that. I fear to think about moving again, but I have to.

I know that some readers don't like blogs that move around too much, but... I'm too much of a perfectionist to just stay still, lol. This is the 4th site my legacy blog has moved to... And I'm determined to keep it on this blog until I run into a problem that I can't solve on this blog. Anyways, hopefully a move will be helpful, and hopefully it'll all work out for you.
