Here you go.

http://seomi.zzo.net/

I been following her like a lurker.
She is no longer posting on MTs2. She has her own site and she has been uploading stuff to TSR and her own site.
Her site is free. So grab everything while you can 'cos if TSR is smart, they will make her an FA soon. And if she accepts, that's it. More $ spilling out of pockets and I will have no shirts to wear.
477  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: CONFESS! How many of you pay for downloads? on: 2006 February 22, 03:05:06
Do you have a link for semoi's site Jysudo?     I would love to go take a look.

 Smiley
U sure you want it. Don't blame me for the bulge in ur downloads folder. I will be back here shortly with the link. Need to search for it and her files are HUGE like 10 mb. I hope u are not on dial up.

But I read that the patch brings the identity of the PT back! :/ not sure if its' true or false? I have yet to check it out in the game. I will report back again if it does. Use that hack. I have a feeling the kid will be adorable ...I mean he has a nose as a tot, sharp pointy eyes and bug shaped eyes and his sim dad is good looking. what could go wrong?

With the PT hack, i also have twin alien girls but they have human shaped eyes and no pointy ears so its not a 100% thing either.
479  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Question about alien kids on: 2006 February 22, 02:51:56
I just checked my patched game and neither of my 2 alien spawn show the polli-tech in their family tree (in two different neighborhoods)

Jysudo, I assume you mean the multi-polli-tech hack, am I right?  just want to make sure  Smiley  I didn't try out the multi-polli-tech hack, that would require doing a bunch of breeding of alien spawn and I'm to tired tonight to play  Cry  I assume it would still work, you just wouldn't be able to tell in the family tree which polli-tech fathered which spawn  Undecided


I wish Maxis had just added more polli-techs instead of zapping the polli-tech parent from the family tree *sigh*

Yes Sleepycat, I am using that.  Grin
And I love it.Can't wait for the kid to grow up. I have one alien kid with the PT's genes. now.
480  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Killing off those ugly NPCs maids on: 2006 February 22, 02:29:42
I know I can create my own NPC but I am lazy and killing is the easiest  Kiss

I still haven't seen my new maid, arrrrgh.
They sent an ugly one, Dallas over. Perhaps I should make my new maids - punk, goth, gay and hardworking by myself  Tongue

Well that came around to kick you in the ass, didn't it?


Bleah! I am sure I will get a good looking maid. But I haven't got around to sacking Dallas and hiring a new one yet.
Let just see what MAxis give me before I make my punk-goth-gay maid in a long skirt ...
481  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Question about alien kids on: 2006 February 22, 02:28:13
I am a bummer and a philopsophical risk taker and I leave the PT (mts2 version) hack in my NL game.

No problems at all. The kid get sharp pointy ears and black bug shaped eyes, genes of the  PTs hack.

So yeah, u can use it but if u are not philosophical, pls back up ur game 1st.

The recent NL patch seemed to make the aliens linked again. I haven't checked it out for myself yet.
482  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: More are abandoning ship on: 2006 February 22, 02:21:12
The works I see are certainly the FA's current work on other FREE sites. But I am not making noise.
483  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: CONFESS! How many of you pay for downloads? on: 2006 February 22, 02:04:20
Just to say I think that the MTS2 "Thanks" button is a great idea. I really wish to thank some folks there who share their fantastic creations. I know its time consuming to create all these and there is nothing wrong in me wanting to show my appreciation.

I always make sure I click the "thanks" button regardless of whether the person mentions it. If they do it for a hobby that's fine with me. If they want recongniton, that's also fine with me. The important thing is the download was shared FOC and I don't mind stroking egos to get it. Who doesn't want their egos stroked once a while to feel good? I would love it too, so would you.
And what's the name of this website?  Grin and whose ego we stroke all the time here?  Roll Eyes

Yes, my US$9.95 comment is made based on Peggy Sims2 site. I am so tempted now. I am practically dying for that bridal veil.
I am still resisting...but I don't know for how long.
By the way, did you guys know that semoi have a new site on her own and she has a new hair there she shared for free while its also paid content on TSR? Go grab it. Its a guy's hair.

And yes, I think we shouldn't share paid content 'publicly'. Its ok to do it in private as long as its discreet and we don't broadcast.

Yes, hobbies cost $. I am skipping buying a few shirts and having a few less sodas for my VL habit.

and I am not sure if that's right...I mean losing RL for VL hobby...so its a 'confession' in that sense, I guess. Not to imply paying for cc is a sin...
484  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: More are abandoning ship on: 2006 February 21, 16:24:41
Serious? How much do they get paid?! I always wanna ask this question over there but I am afraid this is a forbidden question or something. The mods are pretty you know ...strict. They locked threads when you discuss topics they don't like... such as questioning why stories forums are in off topic (most recent case  I read)  and some other crap issues.

I'm not sure if they have the same offer going for all FAs or if some get paid more than others. The amount they pay is based on how many subscriber downloads their items get, but there is a monthly upper limit. What they offered me one time was a maximum of $250 a month ($10 for every 10,000 downloads), but who knows if it's changed since then. I would imagine (just guessing here) that they pay more to the famous and popular FAs to make sure they stay at TSR.


Hosting your own site is not that expensive. I think most smaller sims sites will get by just fine on the cheap hosting packages that give you something like 100 gigs of bandwidth a month for the cost of around $6 a month, for example.

Wow!$250 a month! They must be making big bucks. I know Sim Chic pays $ but I didn't know TSR does and pays so much. But is there a 'quota' of items they must fulfil within a certain frame? I mean otherwise there couldn't be 'Retired' artists right?  Huh
485  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: CONFESS! How many of you pay for downloads? on: 2006 February 21, 16:22:01
I just did my maths. Assuming that I subscribed to different sites on rotation basis, by the end of base game + 7 EPs and 3 years later,
the cost of paying for these downloads would be almost the same cost as paying for the game +7 EPs.

And I don't believe that free stuff are not good ...look at mts2 - there are awesome stuff there!

But at the same time, good stuff with quality are almost always not free. We don't get to eat a free lunch and as a life stimulator, our sims don't to live a free lunch too...its just so sad  Sad

But you have to agree that some sites are out to make a profit its not for maintaining the site. I mean US$9.95 a month! what kind of awesome site you need to maintain?
Its not even more awesome than this site! and I cough up a bloody US$40 here a month!  Shocked

486  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: CONFESS! How many of you pay for downloads? on: 2006 February 21, 11:39:42
Why, you wanna deal?

Why not if its good?  Wink
487  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Question about alien kids on: 2006 February 21, 11:38:54
I thought ita 50-50% if the simmie has cc eyes.
488  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Question about alien kids on: 2006 February 21, 08:59:59
I really hate it  Angry when aliens get bug shaped human beings - its spooky!

And that Multiple PT hack from MTS2 is compatible with NL - I been using it and the alien kids have the PT's genetics.
- very sharp pointy ears and small good looking bug shaped eyes and yes a nose.
489  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: CONFESS! How many of you pay for downloads? on: 2006 February 21, 08:40:20
yeah do tell.

I need my $40 back so that I could slurge them on other downloads.

* Grin Grin*

And Brynne,

Does ur back-alley friends need more friends?
490  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: CONFESS! How many of you pay for downloads? on: 2006 February 21, 08:08:00
I think this topic died a death a good while ago in another thread!

Ooo..There has been a similar topic before? I am a newbie. I didn't know

Devilish grins   Grin
491  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: CONFESS! How many of you pay for downloads? on: 2006 February 21, 07:46:07
Except for here, of course. You did pay your subscriptions here, right?


Damn! I forget to blame you JMP! Because of ur HIGH fees here , I have no $ left to pay for cc.
 Grin
492  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: More are abandoning ship on: 2006 February 21, 07:40:32
Mod the sims 2? I don't know of anything bad there, outside of the odd swear that gets deleted by mods.

I am talking about TSR  Tongue
493  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: CONFESS! How many of you pay for downloads? on: 2006 February 21, 07:39:34
That means you did pay up.

come on, be manipulated.

*tags at puppet strings*  Grin
494  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / CONFESS! How many of you pay for downloads? on: 2006 February 21, 07:30:56
I confess I subscribe to Sim Chic and TSR before.
I don't have a choice because I want those things so much ...  Cry
And my wallet give way and spill the $ out.

So how many of you here (horrors!) give way like me? And where did you subscribe to?

CONFESS today  Grin
495  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: More are abandoning ship on: 2006 February 21, 05:39:29
They also don't like people giving out outside links.

I think they only don't like it if the site is not PG13.
And their definition of PG13 is very strict...I was warned once.
I think my defn is more like M18 to them ... Grin
496  TS2: Burnination / The Podium / Re: Lame Party Scoring on: 2006 February 21, 03:17:30
Everything above "Snoozer" is great. Some parties may visibly display as "disaster" due to some required condition not being met until the very last moment, after which the display is not quick enough to reupdate so the party ends looking like a disaster, but isn't.

I always thought that everything below "good time" is considered a bad party. That used to happen to me but it didn't happen anymore.
 
Now everything is "have a great party" even if its below Snoozer. But I will try  to have a bad party again and see if it happens.

Getting a whole site is expensive and a lot of creators at TSR are forever stuck there lol.
Sometimes I wonder at the attraction of TSR to these talented creators  Huh
It can't be the free days. Serious creators create and don't play much.

Because the featured artists get paid.

How about Louis@simcribbing? Some of his/her men's lips (unisex actually) are pretty nice but I am not sure if your definition of too pink, too pale defines those...  Grin

Because that site has a lot of lag.

Also, eventually all serious creators seem to get their own sites.
