Out of Touch Update


Chapter Twenty-Two has been added today. You may want to note that we've reached July 9. Getting closer all the time to finding out: Will he stay or will he go?

I loved the way this picture turned out, so I turned it into a wallpaper. It's 1440x900.

Thank you everyone for reading!!

5 Poses Boxes Added to Catalog :)

Pose Boxes added to Stand, Sit, Couples, Kneel, & Weapon:

wuyi posebox 0903
wmgc posebox by catdogII
bingyue's box
RayE_boyslove posebox V2
Loli Box 2

The majority of the boxes were added to the Couples catalog.

Also, starting with this update, I've included a small thumbnail of the top of the box in the upper left-hand corner to make deciding which box it is a bit easier, I hope. :)

Just a bit of FYI, as of this update there are 38 pose boxes contained within the catalogs. If this sounds like a lot, remember, it's really only the tip of the iceberg. :p

Today's Update is SoM

We're getting closer all the time to the end of the Search for Nanda, and heading into the final stretch with this update. Just one more non-evening time of rest, and they'll finally reach their destination.

On a note of trivia, below is a picture from the night when Lessa came to Kerrin's bar the first time. I'm sure you all didn't notice Xavier sitting with Chryses that night. He's also playing pool behind them while they speak.

Trivia

How he know Chryses will eventually be covered, but not for a rather long while.

Thank you all for reading!

Happy Easter

I don't usually talk about non-Sim related items here, but something happened to me on Friday that I want to pass along.

In this world where we all think no one really cares any more, where you go to a fast food restaurant and get a sloppily made hamburger and stone-cold fries, a pop that's either too carbonated or too syrupie, or many other things we deal with on a daily basis, I found a man who was willing to go an extra step for me. :D

A couple of weeks ago, I ordered an HP computer for work. When it was shipped and the tracking came out, I saw it was set for FedEx Home Ground delivery. Well, I didn't worry, the local terminal would know we're a business, right? After all, we ship with them all the time. Well, as the day wore on and no delivery arrived, I began to worry, so I called the 800 number. Well, there was nothing they could do, it was the shipper's fault, not theirs and so on and so forth. But she could make a notation that we'd close at noon on Friday and not be there Saturday and hopefully the computer would get delivered Tuesday at the latest and not get shipped back to HP.

After a sleepless night, I went to work Friday and looked in my files finding a local FedEx number. Everyone was wonderfully helpful, and the guy at the home delivery terminal told me he'd try to get the driver to bring it to us before noon. Well, the office guy called back, the driver couldn't make it, but he'd bring it to me personally, after all they were just in the next city over. By 10:00 Friday morning the office worker at FedEx had personally brought me the new computer, saying these things happen - he didn't place the blame on anyone. It's so wonderful to know that there are still some generous, caring people that I just had to pass this on.

Anyway, to the real reason for this post, Out of Touch, Out of Time, Chapter 21 is up. :D

Thank you everyone for reading!

Pose Box Additions

Hey everybody, two new poses boxes have been added. The way to the link is here.

A couple reminders:

Goodbye_sun has an ongoing project with a face overlay catalog that clearly shows how face overlays work by themselves and in conjunction with each other. I highly recommend checking it out as it just makes your pictures so much more complete.

Overlay


Overlay

The same pose with a face overlay added can make a big difference in how your story will look in the long run. We spend a good deal of time writing and then simming them. A few minutes more to add a face overlay can make such a difference. :D

Lastly, Goodby_sun's Posing Sims at Garden of Shadows has links for everything, including the pose boxes themselves, that you can possibly ever need to tell a quality Sims2 story.

New SoM Character

Hi Everybody,

I'm just popping in because I've finally got a pretty decent picture of a new Sea of Moons character who will make a brief appearance in Search for Nanda, but he really shines in Guardian's Key.

Just a teaser, you know I like to do these from time to time. ;D

The picture will expand out to 1440x900.

Pose Box Labeling Error

Sorry everybody, I' made an error in naming one of the pose boxes I put up on April 3. I have every intention of correcting it and putting the proper name on the boxes, but that may take a day or two as I have something else I'm working on at the moment. I thought about taking it down because I didn't want to terribly confuse people, but since there is a picture of the box as well, I don't want to do that either.

So, the proper name of the box is: xixi posebox for quidiexi at the moment it's listed as posebox for quidiexi. This is one of the poses, just so you know which box.

Dreams Bring Mysteries at SoM

Pollux, Part 6, The Dream is up!

Hum, I seem to find that understanding the pose boxes and experimenting with the face overlays are making for a very satisfying look to the updates, but are also making them take so much longer to put together. :D Even though putting them together is getting easier.

It also makes for fewer to none of the extra strange pictures because I usually get what I'm looking for. Instead of 100 pictures to sort though, I get very few more than I use. So, the outtakes aren't as plentiful. :)

Thank you everyone for reading!

More Pose Boxes

As usual, go here to get to the pose box link. :D Poses were added to Stand, Sit, Lay, Kneel and Couples.

I had help this time. Goodbye_sun graciously offered use of any test shots she'd taken of boxes that I hadn't had time to get to yet. You won't have any trouble telling which are hers and which are mine, I'm sure. Thank you Goodbye_sun, they were a tremendous help.

Take care,
