I’ve made a couple of changes, one concerning my policy and once concerning comments, and I decided they were big/important enough to warrant an announcement. (It isn’t anywhere near as ominous as it sounds, I promise!)
Firstly, I’ve changed my policy to allow my custom content to be converted for The Sims 3 – as in, not just for your own game (like it was before), but also to upload and to share with others. Knock yourselves out, TS3 creators!
(I still don’t want my items to be converted for The Sims 4, though – even if you create for both games – and that’s unlikely to change in the foreseeable future. Sorry.)
Secondly, about commenting. You no longer have to fill out name and email to leave a comment, but can comment anonymously! The fields for name and email are still there in case you do want to fill them out, but now it’s fine to leave them blank. π
I’ll admit it’s a bit of an experiment. If I get flooded with spam comments, or if people do like on Tumblr and think that anon equals a free pass to be an arsehole, we’ll go back to the name-and-email route. (I’ll tell you right now that my pain threshold for arseholery is going to be low; I’m not going to waste as much as one of those flimsy little plastic spoons on that kind of crap.) But for now, the bar is open, so to speak.
See? I told you it sounded more ominous than it actually was. π
…because I think you need an earworm, too π :
No earworm…just an hour spent listening to songs about change! (Much worse ways to spend an hour ^_^)
Here, have one of my favourites.
Sounds like an hour well spent to me. π And that’s a great song! I hadn’t heard it before, but I like it a lot. π
*tight hugs* β€
LOL ^ I just went straight to my Bowie play list… cruisin’ through Ashes to Ashes right now. π
I don’t play 3 or 4 (never will!) But, I really enjoy all your goodies! Thank you for sharing β€
And I hope you are having a nice Summer!
Hee. β
Yeah, I’ve got no plans to start playing either, but I’ve received several (very nice and polite) requests from people who’ve asked if they may convert my items to TS3 for personal use – which of course they may, that’s always been fine (but I still really appreciate their asking to make sure). And after some consideration, I thought… TS3 has been around for quite a while now and so has its community, so what the heck. If they want to convert my stuff for TS3, let ’em! π (The main reason I didn’t want conversions before is that I was concerned that people would make sh*tty conversions and then give me as the original creator the blame for it, but the TS3 community doesn’t seem to be anything like that at all. The TS4 ditto, though… yeah, don’t get me started. π )
And thank you for always being so kind and encouraging – and for sharing your goodies. β€ Without your lots, my 'hoods would be nothing but boxy boxes.
Hope you're having a nice summer, too (and that you aren't affected by that horrible heatwave)!
First time here! Was looking for sword dummies and it brought me to you. I barely play sims (I wish I had more time!) but I appreciate what you are doing, and the bowie song is an indeed an earworm!
There seems to be a lovely community here, I wish you all the best π
Hi there! Welcome! π
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot to hear that people like what I do. β€ And it is, isn't it? Bowie really was one of the greatest.
And yes, my downloaders and commenters are a great bunch of people, I've been very lucky. π All the best to you, too! Stay safe.
