@elanorbreton, what a great thread and homes you've shared! I started creating some starters the other day to replace the ones in the cheaper neighborhood. I thought they looked too much like trailers and felt they needed to be some older, smaller homes with character. Anyway, it's been lots of fun! @asphyxiateddoll, yours…
Congratulations to all! I have really enjoyed these challenges so far and am anxiously awaiting the next one. Free time to play the game as of late has been limited, but I do enjoy spending it on building. Despite my initial frustration with the budget on this challenge, it was completely doable, just lots of downsizing,…
They are just too cool. @Berrypie27, I have started a Berry Sweet Sim finally! I hope to have her a friend done in a few days. :-) Tranquility is gorgeous!
@cully_c - Thank you very much for the lovely home! Silas and I were finally able to celebrate our birthday! We are very much enjoying life at The Marches! Here is a snapshot of us meeting our neighbor, Douglas Curtis III. Yes, we are just as grateful, @cully_c. The misses and I were able to enjoy the home as well! LOL! I…
Thank you, @celdys0n! I had fun, I never spent a lot of game time focusing on building previously. I'm enjoying it so far! @misscbong, I was experiencing the same thing last night!

@cully_c - That is SO COOL! Very spacious and looks like it could easily be added onto when they have more funds! It appears to have most everything they need. I know they can't wait to take a peek inside. @22calprincess - Keep trying! No rush, as I am leaving for a weekend work trip tomorrow and won't be back until next…

Exciting, @cully_c! They are already on the lot, so as long as the build/buy mode total is $25k or less, it should work fine... I think? We're all learning together!
I posted my entry last night and the boards said my post had to be approved? Any idea what that's about? SOLVED: http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/785356/your-comment-will-appear-after-it-is-approved-work-around
Haha! I'm excited to be in the Starter group. I was planning on tagging myself as a beginner before the categories were removed. There are so many great builders, I'm just happy to be a part of the challenges. :-) Uploading pictures now for my submission.
Yay - thanks, @22calprincess and @BlackRoseBronwen! I have been building in Build-n-Share this week as a distraction. Everything kept breaking in their home -like everyday!- and the layout was really just poo because I just threw rooms together in the beginning. I tried several times and kept spending all of my money in…
I am in game and working with the foundation as a balcony. My confusion lied in semantics and I'm just happy to play along with the challenge! I had fun creating Douglas and it's been fun building his house so far. :-)
Does Douglas want a patio or balcony, since the penthouse is a one story build? I was originally thinking that the lobby would be the bottom floor and the penthouse would be upstairs (so it would have a balcony) and there could only be two stories making the penthouse just one level.
