Weekend Project Post

Last week: Coins, shaved hair, house plans, stuff! Things! Woo!

Sunday post instead of Saturday yet again, and barely at that, alas. Have been in a car all day. Blargle.

Have a project you've been sitting on for ages but don't have the time/skills to complete it? Looking for a long-term collaborator for a series of projects you're planning? Want someone to test/give feedback on something? DO YOU NEED A COLLABORATOR OF ANY KIND, FOR ANY SIM-RELATED REASON AT ALL? This is the thread for you. Reply to this comment with the details of your project/idea/what have you and if someone's interest, they can comment back to you and you can sort out the details.

Note: This is not a request thread. The point is not for you to ask people to make things for you, but with you, cool? Cool!

Want to see more of a particular something in sims creations? Reply here. If you think there's a lack of cute elder clothes, or a particular brand of fantasy-style CC, a body mesh you really love or type of hair style, tell us!

The point of this thread is to hopefully inspire people to make more of whatever you think is lacking. Again, it's not for specific requests, there are other places for that. This is just to give a general idea of what you would personally like to see more of from creators.

Have some resources you'd like to share? Websites that are good for textures or meshes, or just have really pretty pictures that inspire you to create? How about tutorials you've found to be really helpful? Comment here!

How was your week in sims? TELL US ALL ABOUT IT IN THIS THREAD. We would like to know about your new legacy heir or your conquer of that mesh with which you were doing battle!

I HEARD YOU LEFT THE COMPUTER AT SOME POINT THIS WEEK. What was that like? If you just want to blather or let off steam about the week you had outside of sims, share non-sim links of interest or what have you, this is the thread for it!

If you would like us to add a thread or have a question about the existing ones, reply here!

Pre-trip, I was making progress on the Newsea hair I whined about here! I've got the adult and child age bow-free at this point, which just leaves the teen age. I'm just going to remove the toddler age, I've decided. Three times carving out this stupid bow is enough for me, and bouffants on toddlers = lol no.

Child/teen male clothing for categories other than everyday.

Male alien "hair", both original and mesh conversions. "Hair" in quotes, because I'm thinking of... things like the Darth Fubar Twilek lekku and that Togruta montrail mesh, and so on, which aren't technically hair but are classified as hair and essentially hair for all intents and purposes. There's a decent variety of women's alien "hair" to go around out there, enough you could default replace like crazy (I keep meaning to do this), but pretty much a male Sim has to either make do with hair-hair, wear a hat, or go bald.

There is never enough not-sexy underwear or exercise clothes for any gender or age.

Those who fix borked meshes and animation bugs are like unto the gods. And also awesome.

Auto-Tune the News. I watched far too much of it at one time, so now my brain goes "shawty" during random pauses.

I got all of the basegame TM&AM suits re-shaped, packed up, and taken pictures of, and even made conversions for the two meshes that didn't have a teen version. Now I just need to upload them...

I also made winceyfaces at a bunch of the Maxis clothes and asked myself if I reeeeaaaally wanted to reshape so much. I'm terribly tempted to pick and choose from the clothes offered in the EPs... but I'm also a completionist. Hard things are hard!

Retextures of Maxis clothes, especially for guys. There are some 'okay mesh, crappy texture' men's clothes that really need some help.

Another book--

Boneshaker, Cherie Priest: A face-paced steampunk adventure with airships, zombies, and a hard-bitten woman searching for her son in walled off downtown Seattle. The characters are colourful and distinct and the alternate history and setting well-realized. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of steampunk, zombies, or both.

Workout meshes, man. Specifically, for AM/TM/EM. For CU, too. All I have is a leotard and some soccer uniforms. :S

Whaaaaat, no bouffants on toddlers? HOW AM I GOING TO HAVE MY MISS PRISS PAGEANT? >;[

Here is what has been eating my internet time up:

Polyvore is a great site if you are a freak about your personal style and clothing like I am. Mine is right here . People use it for various things, like collaging, but I tend to use it just to make dream and semi-reality outfits.

Pokemon Indigo is great, especially if you are someone like me who is without a handheld gaming device. It's not perfect, by which I mean a bit easy but I like it well enough. I'm Deoxyribon on there!

Also has anyone gone to Pride? I'm quite excited since ours is next weekend! 8]

I wish there was more Harry Potter stuff. =/ I'm going to start doing my part with Uniforms. =)

I spent the last week building a house and taking pictures in it. I never actually enjoyed building one like this before. it was kind of awesome.

Psst. Your comments should be in response to the pre-created threads.
