    Hey all.

    I just uploaded the newest chapter to my blogger account if anyone here is interested in reading. I am working on getting my second generation heir's Affordable Family Housing Neighborhood built as per the #BuildNewcrest Legacy Rules and I just couldn't do it without a good contractor, as such this chapter features @LegacySims2017's Dylan Wahl from his House of Pancakes series. [Thanks so much for loaning him to me!]

    2.16 New Avenues

    Check it out if you have time. :)

    @TheAemaSimming Really good!! I don't use NewCrest for anything but sets (and now 2 houses) in the Swanson Legacy story.

    But you might want to check before you post the next chapter that your picture doesn't cut off words. You have several chapters where that happens.

    adrian cracks me up.

    he got invited to alec house so i sent him. but his bladder was in the yellow zone. so instead of knocking on the door and saying i want to hang out but i need to pee first he goes all the way back home. alec is in windaberg i think adrien lives in willow creek so alecs bathroom would have been closer.

    @BlackUndecimber Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. Hope you feel better.

    As for me things are going well enough. I've just been chipping away at my current story/blog plans.

    @MadameLee Thanks...I'm not sure what you mean by picture cutting off though. It appears fine on my devices when I view it not in editing mode...

    @TheAemaSimming It not so much cutting off but the picture seems to be in the middle of the sentence making it very difficult to read

    here's what I mean on your blog (I used Print Screen and then Paint)

    Wow.... it doesn't show up like that on any screen I've viewed it on... maybe I need to add more spacing?

    Yeah more spacing might help-I just tested it using a piece from my non-Legacy story.

    This will depend on monitor size and picture alignment--it's an issue that shows up with WordPress, too.

    What I do to avoid it is to have the images center aligned above the image. Right or left alignment can cause that issue of not enough space on either side for the text to display correctly.

    Do you also play The Elder Scrolls Online? You can find me there as CathyTea, too!

    @CathyTea I have changed with my Swanson Legacy haven't I? At the beginning I was kind of concered about having a (main?) character wear a Hijab item but now..I have two main characters wearing it-for a better reason (?) then why I wanted the other main character.

    @CathyTea I had thought I had all my images centered. Guess I'll need to really make sure they really are. Good to know it's not exclusively a me problem though.

    I'm really lacking in experience aren't I?

    Never had food (hot dog,etc) from a food stand, never had Ice cream from an ice cream truck, and I never got pop from a vending machine (which reminds me I need to write that short story I had last week)

    @friendsfan367 No Simscog had children from many characters (ie Alice's older sister, Cinderella's stepsister, Drizella, Cruella Deville, Mad Madame Mim, Lilo's older sister and Edward's Step-mother Enchanted 2007). One of simself and her husband (Arthur from The Sword in the Stone) child (aka son) married the daughter of Cruella Deville and had 2 children hence the "shared" grandchildren. The grandson from that reunion got together with the granddaughter of Citizen's.
