    it hasn't been missed velter. don't worry. with this project that we do to help out the community we don't always flip in order. we like to pick up lots we get inspired by and take it from there. if you don't it tends to feel like a task and not at all fun. we want this to be fun for both parties. we also have an off-site list of all the flips that have been requested due to site maintenance sometimes limiting our ability to get on the forums.

    on that note i do have some questions regarding your flip, Williams Manor.

    1. do you mind us scaling down the build down as there is a lot of space in there which most mat not get used by a sim family.
    2. do you mind us using cc patterns or would like it base game patterns only?
    3. i do have cc items, eg furniture and decor in game same with the other flippers. would you feel comfortable with us using some pieces or would like us not to use these?
    4. is there any colours you do or don't like?

    Hi Jenni! Just in case you check in here first, I sent you an e-mail with the link to the slideshow featuring the finished interiors. Just let me know what you think and if you are happy with them, then we can consider this flip done and I can package the lot up for you! :D

    Scaling down is fine i just wanted the library for a kinda medevil dungeon with a knowledge base in it but forgot that i could makea basement .... all colors are fine yes even pink it depends on how its being used and what may i ask are cc items? third party downloaded items? if so then just tell me where to find them and yes. next wanted to know could i ask you guys help ONLY on colors like floor color and wall colors and for 1 other lot it may look basic at first glance but its far more intricite once you lookinside....

    http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=2426825

    all it really needs is a womans touch or a bit of fashion... anyway um about my earlier question i was saying i didnt see it being added to the queue thats why i asked was it missed :)

    anyway thanks for all your help

    Hi SimMermaid :D

    It took a while but hope you like the shell of the house? I moved the front door (hope that was ok) so it lines up with the balcony door as it looked a bit lopsided. It means the front yard has to change, will that be ok? You mentioned a classic loft style and I think nothing says that more than exposed old brick to me, so I added some, which I think works really well with the siding? Anyway see what you think?

    Screenshot-16-5.jpg

    I have started woring on the interior... So am hoping you like the shell so far lol, this is a view in the main lounge... do you like it? If you dont I can change it :). You can see some exposed brick (matched where it is externally, but most rooms will show none or less.

    Velter - Hi ! I can confirm your lot 'Paradise Escape' has been added to our off site list of pending Flips :).

    SimMermaid - Hey :D. Just to let you know I have decorated all the ground floor and hallways which leaves the 2 floors of bedrooms and the landscaping. I recently got Ambitions EP and it means I have had to patch my game to the latest patch. Will you be getting Ambitions? If so I could possibly use some of the new items included with the game?
    Let me know what you think and if you would like to see more pics of the other rooms I can post some for you :)

    Sorry it has taken so long for me to get back to you with feedback, it seems The Sims 3 forums don't like it when I sign in (always being down for maintenance >.<' )
    I really like the new look of the shell of the house! Moving the front door is fine as it makes it more symmetrical. I am not really into the color of the brick siding you used. If you can use maybe a white-ish or maybe a gray-ish brick it might look better. The interior brick is not really eye catching for me but it also just may be the color throwing me off lol. If you could change the color I might be able to warm up to it a bit more. The front yard needs change now, to go with the new exterior look, so it's fine.

    The bottom floor looks great so far! I just installed Ambitions myself so anything from that expansion is fine by me. Please keep up the awesome work! I can't wait for it to be finished! Oh one more thing... If I could have a room/attic/basement, something set aside for a workshop for my ambitions sims? If you could do that, it would be awesome!

    Hi SimMermaid!
    No worries I will experiment! :mrgreen: Great about the ambitions too! New shiny things in there! :D.

    I also have struggled to post ANYTHING or get on these forums, worse when you are logged in too! Extremely frustrating :(. I don't know if you have considered joining a forum/fansite outside of TS3...as they actually work ;) lol. As I am a member of several and we could liaise directly through Pm's (which is great as we get email notifications also!). This is totally up to you of course, and it's no problem to keep contact here on TS3 if you prefer :).

    I can be reached via pm's as 'Allium' on http://www.siminteriordesigns.com/ , http://www.buildersboulevard.com/apps/blog/ (both these sites you can use the same login's as they are hosted on the same server) or also http://www.simmerssociety.net/ :lol:

    I just want to say that I am sorry for not keeping the new thread updated lately. I can never get on the forum and when I do it only lets me post about 2% of the time so I am going to try and update it now but don't hold your breath. :shock:
    Plimmia- I would like to know what expansions you have now. Do you have WA and Ambitions?

    Hi Plimmia. I will do as you wish for sure. Can I keep the underwater tomb but make it fit more into my theme? I have researched Archimedes and was planning on an ancient Greek structure with the tomb underneath. If you agree I will show you pictures to make sure you approve.

    Hey Alli, I haven't been on in a while just wanted to see how the flip is coming and see if there are any new pictures to share.
    Btw this site is fine for continued contact as it seems to be behaving itself for the time being.

    SimMermaid- Hey! I am still playing with the brick colour on the exterior but here are some of the interiors so far :)

    Kitchen
    Screenshot-244.jpg

    Study
    Screenshot-246.jpg


    Downstairs Bathroom
    Screenshot-248.jpg


    Dining Room
    Screenshot-242.jpg


    Master bedroom and bath (I went with the pink theme you originally had?)
    Screenshot-251.jpg

    Screenshot-253.jpg
    (this is the same pink as the wallpaper)
    Screenshot-250.jpg


    Nursery ( I really liked the cloud theme you had so again worked with that) :)
    Screenshot-254.jpg

    There is also another bathroom on this floor.


    Question time lol! :D

    1/ You wanted somewhere for a studio I was thinking the garage would make a cool workshop and I find for game play its more useful to be on the ground floor? They only need one car and it can be on the drive?

    2/ I have done the kitchen prior to Ambitions but would you like laundry facilities in it?

    3/ On the top floor any preference for the bedrooms? You have a master bedroom and a boys nursery so far. Upstairs is room for 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. They could be a kids room (boy or girl) a teenage room (boy or girl) and a guest double room.... or would you like an exercise room instead maybe?

    Let me know :). Hope your enjoying ambitions?

    Hey Alli everything looks pretty good! I especially love the master bedroom! In the kitchen the bar stools look out of place with the natural wood color, can you change the frame color to white or gray to match the rest of the kitchen but keep the seat pattern/color as is? The boys nursery looks even better than before!

    1) The Garage is fine for a studio/workshop.

    2) The kitchen or a large bathroom for laundry facilities would be ideal.

    3) Upstairs can I have a shared girl's room for a child and a teen? I would also like the additional bedroom to be a guest/ Simbot bedroom.

    Additional requests: I prefer my sims living in the lap of luxury so could I have the study furniture revamped to the more expensive and environment friendly ambitions love-seat, desk, and dining chair? Also, for the bathroom, the the high end loft stuff toilet or the most comfortable toilet and higher end counter sinks would be preferred. Is there room in the backyard for a small pool?

    And finally, I love all the really cool custom objects you used!

    I hope I am not being too picky or demanding for you... :?
