Me again ...

I have to say this: If you get a chance to go on a little downloading spree, check out Ehaught\'s page. You will find him in my favorites. I\'ve finally had time to look at his Opera House, and it is fantastic! I kept an eye out for his buildings in TS2, and it looks like the legend will continue. I can\'t wait to see the rest of them. ...
What, you still here?

My first upload

I\'ve been a builder for the most part all the way through Sims 2. With this game, it took a while to get into it. I still can\'t figure out the tools for making an arched bridge. For some reason they want to take the darn thing sky high when I\'m only going for a gentle slope. More tinkering, I guess.
Today I\'ve uploaded my first completed lot. The pictures show it being unfurnished, but I\'ve just downloaded and installed it, and it\'s still furnished. Whew! A community lot wouldn\'t be much good without all the toys.
I meant for this to be a park, but the game decided it\'s a gym. No matter. It\'s called \"Avery Community Center\", and it has everything I could dig up from the catalog to include. It wouldn\'t let me keep a few things: no food processor, football, softball, or picnic baskets allowed. Oh well. It has everything else. I wish I\'d thought to put toddler potties in the restrooms where they belong. I left a couple behind the fence by the playground where all the little kid stuff is.
Also, while I was sloping the pool I had no idea I\'d be adding adjoining steps, and now I can\'t go back and change the fence I put there. I can remove it, but not add a new one. That bites. However, I think the aquarium view from the basement kind of makes up for it. I may be the only person to ever download it, but at least I know I\'m able to upload. I had issues after a while with TS2 and couldn\'t get a thing to upload. Not even a little sim with very little cc attached.
Okay, I\'m going back to my game.
