I only found out that a creative corner was still available a fortnight or so ago as its quite difficult to find if you are not sure where to look however once I found the thread I bookmarked it and will remind myself to look in once a fortnight or so for new builds. I love looking at pics and downloading player made builds and am just so grateful to Sims 3 builders have not completely disappeared and have continued to create and supply us all with great builds to use :)

You did a great job on that build and you can use CAS created sims to replace the social workers that deal with child abuse like I'll be doing when my town gets big enough for it.

Wanna know how to prove I paid attention and studied every picture.This is actually funny and cracked me up.I am very attentive

The Hidden Springs pizza delivery girl Ria Gade is the one applying for section 8 housing. :D Apparently now we know what happens as a result of our sims not tipping.
