A warm and inclusive community that welcomes all orientations, from carnivores to vegans, from gourmands to junk-food junkies. Guaranteed bias-free, food-positive, and pan-epicurian.

I swear I saw this somewhere, but now I'm making a Sim of a friend and totally needed.



If anyone knows where I can find it, I will <3 in your general direction through the internet tubes. <3 <3 <3

ETA: I mean the bow tie, like it says in the title, smartypantses. (Though now that inkspottedtea mentions it...)

ETA2: I also could have sworn I specified I needed this for TS3, but apparently I can't do my own tags in this community. Apologies for my stupidity. No more requesting before breakfast.

Awhile ago (were talking a long time) I had several boots that were under the "glasses" category, most were rain boots and such but I really liked having the shoe option. I now cat for the life of me remember where I had gotten them from, and was wondering if anyone else had seen them and could point me in the right direction. thanks a bunch.

Thank you for pointing this out, whomever you may be. I never put a claim on any of the Queen Bee posts that I would be sticking to the rules strictly. I do not have the time to sit through game play of sixty children growing up. I hardly ever have any sims in my game play out their entire life before using boolprop, it takes away the fun for me when I am idling twiddling my thumbs as the sims eat and throw a baseball back and forth.

I see this challenge as a type of diversity challenge as opposed to "how many hours you can sit at your computer waiting for all sixty kids to age up and move out". I did it for the variety in genetics not to fill up free time that I do not currently posses.

This secret just grates on my nerves slightly because I am assuming said secret writer is a friend of my journal, since I have not posted these anywhere else besides here. If they do not like the way I do my challenge enough so that they must go and spend their free time to make a secret, then perhaps friending my journal was not a wise choice.

Thank you to all of those that view/comment/download/etc. and don't feel the need to point out pointless facts. I do adore all of you for reading and being so kind.

I saw these boots on Stylist Sims and I love them, but can't find them. Anyone have any idea where to find them? Thanks for any help!

Hey everyone I'm looking for a headband accessory - not one that's included in hair, a seprate one that I can recolour and add to any hairstyle I wish. This is the sort of style I'm after:

( Piccy... )

Does anyone know where I can find one please? I've looked everywhere, including MTS2 and Rosesims.

Hello everyone!

I'm hoping that someone can help me out. I have AL and while I love to furnish the apartments, it takes a lot of work, and often, I'm moving sims in and out of them, but I'd like the furniture to stay in the apartment for the next move-in. I downloaded Stay Things Shrub from Simlogical, but it doesn't seem to work on apartments. I tested one guy out, and moved a new one in and everything was gone with the previous attendant. I tried looking through the hacks section here, but it doesn't look liked anyone's asked this yet. I've also googled and searched other places for a hack like this, but I'm also not sure how to word this particular hack.

If anyone knows of a hack like this that will work for AL, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!

p.s. Thanks to the MOD who will help me tag this : D

The empire strikes back

In recent weeks, we've taken huge steps towards blocking spam accounts on LiveJournal. In fact, we've suspended as many as 30,000 accounts in a single day! We've implemented several pre-emptive measures to prevent the creation of spam accounts, and we've honed our detection of suspicious content. Spam bots are a crafty lot, so we'll continue to refine our tactics and keep up the good fight to keep you safe from spam attacks on LiveJournal.

RSS feeds again

If you're addicted to xkcd_rss, icanhaschzbrgr, or other syndicated feeds, we're pleased to report that we've resolved the update error that was mucking up your RSS feeds. While content was being pulled correctly, it wasn't being posted to the feeds themselves. Late last week, we finally nailed down what we hope was the root problem, so content should post properly. We thank you for your patience.

I've known of this hair for toddlers for ages. I think it's really cute, but I hate the textures on the original and the one retexture I found. Does anyone know where I could find a nice retexture of it? Thanks, guys. :)

Hi everyone! I heard there was a hack for your Sims' children where they could develop crushes on and have certain romantic interactions with other kids (like kissing), but I haven't been able to find it anywhere. I was wondering if it even existed, and if so, if anyone knows where I could get it?

Thanks!

I lost my folder of hair, and though it's actually pretty good because I really needed to clean that thing out, now my poor Simon Tam Sim is bald. D: I had thought I used a Maxis mesh for the lazy hair recolor I gave him, but now that it's missing, I guess it wasn't Maxis (unless I am somehow missing Maxis hair too now)!



I think its shape is pumped just a bit bigger than the Maxis combed-back hair it resembles. Unfortunately I have no idea where I got it and I've searched everywhere, high and low, including all my downloads backup discs, for the past week, and it is just nowhere to be found.

( A couple more pics. )

Thanks in advance!
