I always love seeing what you’re going to come up with every assignment. You always think outside the box, and it’s really refreshing. Sometimes you’ve missed the mark, but most times you’re dead on, and it’s awesome! I love this picture! It’s so dark and sinister, and I love how you can barely see your model’s eyes….makes her more demon-like. Awesome job!

You never cease to amaze me. Yes, this picture looks a little sloppy compared to your other work, but it still looks awesome! You, like Chicago, think outside the box, which I must commend you for. Awesome job!

The poem kind of reminded me of a PSA the way it was written…cadence-wise. lol Both the picture and the poem are beautiful. Awesome job!

You’re picture taking abilities have come so far in this competition, but you still have a long way to go. I like this picture, but I think the editing ruined it a bit. If you’re going to edit, make sure you do it so that people can’t really tell, like have it flow seamlessly with the rest of the picture…which is hard, I know, but it comes with practice. Anywho! Great job!

I hate to give you such a low score, but I really don’t see bargaining at all in this. I mean, the picture shows it, if you know the subject, but the poem doesn’t at all…to me, anyway. They are both amazing! But wrong for this assignment.

Eliminated

Bubby. I feel so bad!! And I know I'm gonna feel this horrible for everyone else that I have to eliminate, but since this is the first time I've actually had to eliminate someone, I just feel absolutely atrocious!....well, I really hope to see you next cycle!! *hugs*



Good luck on the next assignment!! :D

I use AVG. Hope you get it sorted.

Of course, Cel, as long as everyone else doesn't mind. How bout I make it til midnight Monday(sunday night).

Oh thank you so much Kash! I promise that'll be the last one. :o

I did a few hours worth of research last night and decided on Avast for my new anti-virus, and I kept ZoneAlarm for my firewall. I found 2 high-risk trojans last night, and I'm going to do more scans & cleaning today when I get a chance. Still crossing my fingers that it'll all be okay...

I just found more than two high risk trojans today. They're quarantined but it still scares me. No more downloading CC for me. :/

That sucks Evie! I'm not 100% certain that mine DIDN'T come from CC, but I don't think they did. It's too easy to get a drive-by virus from any random site, so at this point I have no idea how I got these (found one more after a few extra hours of scanning).

Now I have to test my game and see if it will run any better...really crossing my fingers that it will.

Good luck Cel!

beautiful picture chicago! love the poem xD

thank ya kelle. its a bit simple 2 me

oohh she's beautiful.where on earth did you find that dress? It's so awesome

Thanks bubby. It's from Lemon Leaf the other 2 dresses are beautiful too.

Cel I have Avast and I'm really happy with it. It saved me from a trojan not too long ago.

Oh very well done Chicago, it's really good, how did you do the mist like effect??
So i know who is going this time Points to me <--) XD

Holy shiz Chi! That's one of the most beautiful pics I've seen in this entire competition, and one of the best poems. Oh my GOD, how do you keep doing it...? I keep looking at it...that's just effing brilliant, Jeebus Crikey. I ADORE it...

Toblie, lol, you don't have a THING to worry about, trust me! I have 4 or 5 hours to work on this pic before it's due! LMAO! It's been a great ride, though...

Toblie ~ Mov.Obj. and the chimney. First you have to light the chimney, then lower the bottom of the pond low enough so that when you activate CFE to level the ground that it hides it well underneath and all you see is the chimney. I'm not sure if you can put the whole chimney in, I just used the top part that releases the smoke. Hope I helped ya and didnt confuse you and you're not going anywhere.

Cel ~ Where is your pic lady?! You better not drop! Ya know I'm not sure how, it just seems to work, but I usually think it's not all that good anyway, you've rubbed off on me, jk ;) . Aw ur jokin right, there were better pics in this comp, my pic is so simple tho, and the poem...man I'm surprised it made sense..it was inspired by what I went thru about a year or ago, guess that helped.

Now I want to see your pic very soon if not by tomorrow 7am sharp!

I'm sorry! I took some medicine and frikkin fell asleep!!! So pissed -- I'll have my pic up in just a little bit. I don't think I'll need to do any editing (won't help anyway )

Chi, I have to say again what an unbelievable picture that is. If it's my time to go...it's just my time to go I guess, but I would be honored to get booted out by a picture like that. Just frikkin' WOW dude...

Wow chicago, wow.... no words can describe how the heck did you think of that! Will have to try it and dumb question what is CFE? O_o

And yet again my picture looks dark and blotchy as hell on this site...I swear I didn't make it that awful on purpose anyway...ugh. If you enlarge it, it looks a little better. I'm sorry...



"Full Size" HERE

Yay, everyone got their pics in!....wait....dammit! Now I have to eliminate someone again!

Phoebe, I need your scores, please.

Wow cel- dang i can just hear the bugle's playing for me now! lol

Psh, I'm sorry you think that Toblie -- I'm already planning what I'm going to do with all of this free time I'll have after the judging...

i didn't even think about that, awwe i will have to do something, stalk threads maybe ahahahaahahha runs off to find another contest to join lol.

Cele!!! blotchy where? Its so clear to me, I love the silvery blades, the blues are so beautiful in this picture and your model is so gorgeous, even with a slight frown just beautiful and breath taking. I love your poem too.
And girl ur not going nowhere cuz of my pic, still dont know what the judges really like.

Toblie ~ who is this sexy man parading all on my screen?? lol. I love the pic btw CFE is (ConstrainFloorElevation true/False) it allows you to move the ground, raise walls to different heights and all kinds of fun things. That's how you saw me put Lemiko and my extra on the bloody mattress. Now the fireplace wasn't my idea, I just remembered how to use it to get a swampy feel, hotsprings if you like lol.

If you go around on TS3, you'll find that CFE is pretty useful, mostly for the builders, but it comes in pretty handy with modeling as well.

*sneaks in*

Yes, I'm still here stalking you guys :twisted:

OMG Chicago your entry this round just blows me away. Your picture and poem are incredible - perfect!

Cel - Still great :D I think your picture is really cool! I absolutely LOVE the background. I know to say you were pressed for time on it is an understatement. I couldn't put together anything even half that good last second. Exceptional poem again (I love all your poems).

*sneaks out*

Sweetbaby! you gotta sneak in more often. aww thanks for the compliment.

Thank you so much you guys I had to scrap my previous idea 100% because my game was so wonky. I'll just have to do that picture as a non-competition-related shot.

Sweeeet! You really DON'T come around often enough! :x Dammit we miss you around here...lurk & post more or else... :face:

Toblie, did you see FuryRed's blog post about your sim?! He's BYOOTEEFUL -- that's just about the sexiest damn avatar I've ever seen too! :lol:

Chi, I'm still loving that doggone picture of yours. And my brother-in-law says to tell you that he ADORES your neko sims! ^_^ You know I'm sitting here impatient for more... :bounce:

Cele tell your B-I-L I said Hey and thank you . Does he play? Oh and if he does, I'll make a special Neko for him any style he likes lol. I'll make one for you too, so that you're not jealous . They are just the cutest things ever!

Oh and I'm waiting for this height slider from Basic over @ MTS so i can make them the perfect height. Eeek! can't wait!!!

No, he doesn't play (isn't he missing out?), but he's HEAVILY into anime and all things Japanese or anything related (especially girls, real and animated), so those sims are right up his alley!

But if you want to make one for me I would be VERRRRRRY grateful! I'll squee like a fangirl if you do... :bounce:

And I hadn't heard about Basic's height slider! o_O Definitely looking forward to that :cyclops:

Man he is missing out big time! With all the CC thats out he could have his anime sims all to himself, gotta bring him to the dark side cel :twisted: I'll make one for you! what style would you like? Hiphop/goth/innocent/techy/nerd?

Oh yeah that slider can make them go down to a childs height, I mean how cool would that be! I'd have all kinds of creepy peeps running around lol. Oo a short creepy clown, nightmare!

aaaaaaaahhhhhh!!! I can't WAIT for that slider then!!! EEEEEEE!!!! It would be SO cool to have shorter sims...the possibilities...

I DO need to get him over to the dark side, don't I? :twisted: I'll work on that this summer. His gf might already be into it, and if not I can get her hooked too!

Thank you for making me a sim! Yay!!! Let's see...I have no idea what I want! Maybe hip hop or goth (heh heh, or both ). Yeah, one of those two. Thank you Chi! *hugs -- I don't want that to burden you at all!

Oh please it's not gonna be a burden at all, it'd be so cool to make ya one! I'll do both for you *hugs back* I'm going through ms3b now to find some cool stuff, like I need more lol.

Yes bring them both over, its always a good feeling of converting people. I did it to my mom and she's big into it now. Brings a tear to my eye *sniffle*.

I'm running off to start my game now so I can get to work ^.^

suspense!
