Hey all. This sounds like fun. Not as much pressure as an actual build contest, but something to inspire. Or even just somewhere to share something I've already got sitting around from time to time that I haven't uploaded.
I enjoy building it all. Parks, venues and homes. I usually lean toward small to medium size homes, as opposed to large, grand styled mansions. But my style can vary from cottage to deco to modern. Only I do tend to get eclectic more often than not once I wander out of the cottage style.
I have all the EPs and SPs, as well as all the store buy/build content and all the store worlds. Although I don't have all the EPs installed at the moment due to how I am playing my current game. And I have a disc install, so I can't just turn packs on and off. Is there a mod that would do that? Similar to the function within the launcher under Origin? If so I would be thrilled to install that for building requests that need certain packs turned on or off.
Current EPs that I do have running:
Seasons
Pets
Generations
Late Night
World Adventures
One thought, I have one piece of CC that I use almost all the time that I strongly recommend. I can easily leave it out/take it out of a build, but it adds so much. It's called One More Slot Please! by Granthes over at Mod The Sims. It allows you to place things in all sorts of ways, but the absolutely brilliant one is the ability to place items on the inside of bay windows. All that amazing real estate gets put to use! I mention it just because I love it so much that I may recommend it for a specific build and show pictures with and without for people to decided on their own. As a matter of fact, I'll have to pull something out of my current house and post it to show as an example. I just never understood how they could design a window with a shelf that couldn't be used as a shelf and I was thrilled to find a solution.
It's late and I'm getting sleepy, but @charlotteprice I'll see what I have in my bin and get back to you. Or spend a couple hours building to spec. I'm about due for a build. And I see you've also been hit with the new Photobucket restrictions. I need to find a new photo host also. I thought maybe I'd throw some money their way and subscribe, but they are clearly looking to host only professionals at the rates they are asking.
