    Hi everyone. As we all know Lucky Palms will be released later on this week.
    The community has been very nice to me for quite a while and to say thank you I decided to host three giveaways this week. The first was Sweet Treats, the second was Hidden Springs and the third is this one, Lucky Palms.

    To win this world you need to submit images of rooms or settings showcasing the collections listed below. Here are the rules:

    * You must use the following collections: Las Vegas, Mid-Century or Mission

    * You can't mix and match collections in a single image, although you don't have to stick to one collection for your entry. Feel free to submit a number of images with different collections if you have them

    * You will need to submit no more than twelve images in total. Feel free to submit less.

    * You can use items from the base game or any expansions to flesh out the sets if you like, as long as you remember to focus on the set you're highlighting.

    * Lots won't be reviewed, just the images.

    * Post your images on this thread but please keep the original sizes backed up, since the winning images will be added to the collection pages.

    * No photoshop manipulation (lenses etc). Direct game images only.

    *No CC

    * Sims can be in your images as long as they don't overpower the pictures.

    * Have fun with it. Go crazy. Enjoy yourselves.

    There will only be one winner for Lucky Palms but as I did when I used to host these competitions before, often many people score little presents for their creativity.

    Thank you all who want to play.

      Sounds interesting but I don't have las Vegas or midsentury set (I don't even know what they are). I'm still looking over the rules and will edit when I'm done with questions so don't answer yet.

      So we pretty much have to make a room and take 12 pictures of it based on the compilation and making it look nice

      Ps. Done with my quesiton :mrgreen:

      @Smilzpretty you don't need to use the whole set, just enough to showcase the stuff.

      @ShooterII Yep that's right, but feel free to be creative.

      Also to everyone: The mission set is the one from the base game so everybody has a chance. I chose the Mid-Century and Vegas collections because they're the best suited to the new world, but thought Mission was a good choice too. I'm working on the item list now.

      Thanks for listing the items, I don't really know what they are. You can put me down for mission though.

      I tried to create showrooms without mixing sets at all. I couldn't give a shot with 'When Worlds Collide Collection' because I don't own it at all. To be honest, I feel out of creativity now. I tried to do my best, but I don't see any miracles here... :roll: I'll try to update my entry post with better quality pictures :)

      EDIT: Having considered this again, I don't think I like the look of the world enough to buy it so it would be a waste for anyone to gift it me. I'm sure I wouldn't win anyway as there are much better entries than mine, but please don't consider me for the world prize. You are welcome to use my pics if you are mad enough to like them lol, but I am withdrawing from the prize contest.

      I'm working on something with the Mission sets - but there's quite a lot of Mission to fit into one setting... :)

      Is it OK to submit several settings with different items from the same set?
