One room, One week, One theme
http://i.imgur.com/i2li8o5.jpg?1 I thought that I would start a thread where Simmers can post rooms that they create based on a particular theme that is chosen for that week. There will be a theme given for the week, and during that week simmers can post rooms related to that theme. Come to this thread and post pictures of your room! It will not be a contest where there is a winner. The simming community is the winner because we all then have new rooms to download and use in our games/builds ! I just want to encourage everyone to post rooms. Your rooms will all be very warmly welcomed here! It will be interesting to see the different rooms that sims create based on the chosen theme! It will also give us new furnishing and design ideas! More information in the next posts!
☆☆ Sims 4 Quality Control Contest ~ Challenge 74 up due (EST) 9th March ☆☆
https://i.imgur.com/xZrfnEH.png https://i.imgur.com/AYPddEL.png Welcome to my Sims 4 Quality Control Contest, this competition is a builders and designers contest. I love seeing how creative people can be and I have been a part of some wonderful competitions on these forums. I could only dream this competition becomes as popular as them but for now we will see how it goes. My goal with this challenge is to see people improve, I started out having no idea how to build anything but a square box house. I started entering competitions and never dreamed I could build some of the things I have today, though I still have a lot to learn. I see a lot of builds on the gallery that look wonderful on the outside but are lacking on the inside with decor or simply play ability with sims so this competition is all about Quality. There is 3 parts to the Quality Control Contests Quality Control Contest (Bi-weekly/fortnightly) Quality Control Monthly Contest QC Create A Room Contest (Bi-weekly/fortnightly) QC Competiton Guide If you are new to the competitions or thinking about entering I highly suggest checking out the QC Competition Guide, it has tons of helpful information that pretty much explains what we look for in entries.

♥♥ ~ SANDRAELLE'S SHOWCASE ~ ♥♥ *NEW BUILD*: Bristlecone Motel
Welcome to my Showcase Thread, and thanks for visiting! A little bit about me: I'm not really a game player but I do LOVE to build and have been creating since Sims 2 came out. I mostly built for myself (back in the day), then started joining building contests and challenges in the old Sims 3 community forums, which then led to me becoming a member of the DNA request team and started creating for others for six years. I have been participating in several world collaborations most recently and it's been a lot of fun. I've learned a lot about building in these past 10-12 years and have improved quite a bit since those early days. I'm a stickler for details and aim for realistic interiors in my creations. Most of my builds contain store content, but are CC free and I always upgrade all the plumping/electronics. To visit my Sims 3 Studio, click here. To download FREE items from the store, click here. UPDATE September 2025: Added a new build, "Bristlecone Motel" under the Misc Builds section. 😁 UPDATE August 2025: Added "Wooded Bliss" under the Misc Builds section. 😀 UPDATE June 2025: Added the Bayou Bijou Collaboration builds, added some sim households and completed posting some of my "2013-2017" builds. 😀 UPDATE August 2024: This thread has totally been reconstructed using posts from my showcase thread in the old Sims 3 community forum. Custom World Collaborations I've participated in (More information about these community projects can be found by clicking on the links below.) Bayou Bijou World Collaboration (a world based on New Orleans, Louisiana, USA) Orient Express Community Collaboration (a world that consists of London, Paris, Venice and the Alpine area) Cape Albacore World Collaboration (a coastal town inspired by Nantucket Island) Disney Magic Kingdom Community Collaboration (experience the magic of Disney) Ackney-upon-Sherne Creators' Collaboration (an English Village Collaboration) BUILDS FROM WORLD COLLABORATIONS (this section updated on 6/13/2025) Bayou Bijou Project dates: Jan 2025 - June 2025 Orient Express Builds Project dates: Spring 2024 and Jan 2020 - Apr 2021 Cape Albacore Builds Project dates: Sep 2023 - Feb 2024 Disney's Magic Kingdom Builds Project dates: Oct 2021 - May 2023) Ackney-upon-Sherne English Village Builds Project dates: Aug 2021 - Mar 2022) MISC BUILDS -- Personal builds and DNA Request team builds NEW BUILD: Bristlecone Motel, 9/25/2025 Wooded Bliss, 08/26/2025 Fallen Acres, 10/30/2024 2021-2023 / 2020 / 2019 / 2018 / 2013-2017 (updated 6/14/2025) SIMS AND SIM HOUSEHOLDS SIMS / SIM HOUSEHOLDS (updated 6/13/2025)
