syn28 What's currently on my mind in regards to sports ... NOT New Jersey 2013-10-02T19:59:50Z 2006-11-15T15:56:33Z 13646 48 81 https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=syndication&j=328&type=rss https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=syndication&j=328&type=rss2 https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=syndication&j=328&type=atom Yeah I know it's been a while and yes I know I said I was back when it reality I wasn't truly. Let's just say I had a move to the arctic that kind of put creation on hold. Also when I had first entertained the prospect of adding new designs to the Sims 3 it was a relatively new process at the time... 2013-10-02T19:59:50Z 2013-10-02T19:59:50Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=6758 After a long hiatus (4 years to be exact) I am back to my recoloring ways. The Sims 3 offers a whole new realm of customization that I wish to explore. I just walked through my first custom jersey so I hope to start producing my NFL packs for the Sims 3 in due time. Stay tuned. 2011-12-14T21:26:40Z 2011-12-14T21:26:40Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=5834 Yeah... I'm still alive and yes I'm still putting out Sims2 creations (just not actively). I found it funny that the upload I spent the least amount of time on and had the lowest hopes for ended up being the biggest hit so far... that being the Ladies Workout Outfit. Sooooo since people obviously... 2007-08-01T16:34:31Z 2007-08-01T16:34:31Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1701 Geez. I didn't see that one coming. Heck... it wasn't THAT long ago that I was celebrating my 25k download. It seems as though that Ladies Workout Outfit I made was a big hit. I'm glad it proved useful. I got a male workout outfit in the works too but I don't have a set debut time for that yet. I... 2007-07-05T14:58:40Z 2007-07-05T14:58:40Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1583 Still not "officially" back creating but I have been keeping busy. Just uploaded a nice gymwear set. 38 outfits in total and a new mesh. Not bad for not being back to full time creating, huh? :up: 2007-07-01T05:43:34Z 2007-07-01T05:43:34Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1565 I felt that I at least owed you a public apology. For what, I'm not not exactly sure, but you are by far the most understanding mod around here. You're very cool, calm, collected and basically a sweet person all the way through. It's really been bothering me that you feel as though you've been... 2007-06-07T15:04:58Z 2007-06-07T15:04:58Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1490 I find it extremely intriguing how quick people turn on you when you have a difference in opinion. Oh things were fine and dandy when I shut my mouth and just created. However that all changed as soon as I decided to have a thought of my own. Let's see, I've been told to grow up, that I'm... 2007-06-02T17:11:17Z 2007-06-02T17:11:17Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1479 Yeah.. I said it. I figured since the gloves were thrown off by administration, why hold back anymore? Apparently it is not okay to question, debate, discuss, or even bring up any of the policies this site has in place. I thought the community boards would be a good place to get some feedback... 2007-05-29T19:06:28Z 2007-05-29T19:06:28Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1461 I got a pretty nice Thanks response to my Memorial Framed & Folded (American) Flag I didn't intend for that to soley be just for the American fallen soldiers, so if anyone wants a recolour (if it's even possible) to suit their country, just PM me with your country's flag (image) and the logo of... 2007-05-19T17:54:10Z 2007-05-19T17:54:10Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1412 Ok... I'll probably be banned from the site for stirring up a ruckus, but I've got some serious gripes about the Featured Creation Criteria. Some may see this as self-promoting jealousy on my part. Believe what you wish. Everyone's entitled to their opinion. I'm not speaking soley about my work. I... 2007-05-17T17:27:48Z 2007-05-17T17:27:48Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1395 Just thought I'd let ya'll know I dropped a North American Sports Trophies set this weekend. It's my first official attempt at object meshing, but from the responses so far people are really digging them. Will this be the set that gets me featured? I doubt it. I feel like Rodney Dangerfield...... 2007-05-13T12:59:38Z 2007-05-13T12:59:38Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1375 Okay... I've got a scenario that I'd love to get some input about. I'd say I'm a pretty strong moralistic guy. I'm not a bible thumper or anything, but I have a rigid set of moral codes that I live by. One of them is if you're in a relationship with someone, you don't cheat on them. Plain and... 2007-05-12T02:31:48Z 2007-05-12T02:31:48Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1365 Ok... I know the Draft is long over and I know a lot of people on here don't give a hoot about sports news, but for those who do, can someone please tell me why the Detroit Lions took yet another wide receiver in the 1st round? 2003 they take Charles Rogers(<--BUST). 2004 they take Roy Williams... 2007-05-09T19:35:53Z 2007-05-09T19:35:53Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1359 Yeah... I'm sure every creator has gone through this turmoil at one point or another. You start feeling underappreciated, uninspired, overworked, and the real world just gets a bit overbearing. :( I feel that I've given back to the community 100 times over. I feel that my contribution has... 2007-05-01T22:08:32Z 2007-05-01T22:08:32Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1331 Wow. That was a whole lot of exercise I didn't want to do. Imagine, if you will, moving a 2 bedroom house worth of STUFF with a Kia Rio (non hatchback) and a '98 Ford F-150. Oh yeah... we were up on the 3rd floor as well with NO elevator. :blink: Thank goodness the new place wasn't too far... 2007-04-30T21:11:17Z 2007-04-30T21:11:17Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1322 For anyone who cares, I'm in the process of moving to a new home. Like most moves, the hell should start unfolding within the last few days of the month and carry over to the first couple of days of May. Translation: I'll probably vanish for about a week. I'm not leaving for good. I'm not... 2007-04-19T18:56:42Z 2007-04-19T18:56:42Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1262 I haven't been impressed with the female jerseys I've been recolouring. Some Maxis meshes are just a pain in the a$$ to do so with. :wtf: So rather whine about my woes I did something about it. Thanks to my acquired knowledge from these boards I cranked out a flirty little outfit for the girls... 2007-04-15T20:19:56Z 2007-04-15T20:19:56Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1248 No... I'm not tuting my own horn. Heck If i could do that I wouldn't leave the house. j/k Seriously, I'm not being egotistical by congratulating myself (cuz I know some of u monster creators would laugh your a$$es of at such a paltry number). :lol: :lol: :lol: No.. in fact I'm just pleased as... 2007-04-11T17:12:42Z 2007-04-11T17:12:42Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1222 Okay... so it's not technically Easter yet, but I figured I'd belt out my well wishes now. I try to keep race, religion, and politics out of my conversations because they really serve no purpose in my getting to know someone. Just because I don't actively speak about religion, doesn't mean I... 2007-04-07T15:58:28Z 2007-04-07T15:58:28Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1202 I'm sitting here the other day, hanging out on my balcony trying to soak in some fresh air and my gaze happens to catch a young woman crossing the street. I'm not gonna lie. I was watching her rear in motion. I'm not afraid to admit that. Least I wasn't ogling her or tossing cheesy catcalls in her... 2007-04-06T16:31:40Z 2007-04-06T16:31:40Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1195 Ok... I'm having a bad day in general, but I swear... something hit me in the last couple of hours that just set the fuse off. First off, I'm getting real tired of people bitching about "Why didn't you make this?" and "Why didn't you make that?". I mean c'mon! Piss off! I bust my a$$ putting out... 2007-04-05T08:31:01Z 2007-04-05T08:31:01Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1188 Yup. That's right. My first exclusively female outfit set. It's in the moderation queue at the moment and should pass inspection relatively soon so keep an eye out. I have to send a special thanks to the ladies of the MTS2 community. When I first started making jerseys I thought it was only going... 2007-04-04T20:57:34Z 2007-04-04T20:57:34Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1186 Yes. It's finally here. I was being extremely nitpicky with this mesh. Had a few texture bugs with the male hockey mesh that I didn't want to happen to this one so I took my time and double (and even quadruple) checked everything. The Atlantic Division for the ladies should be a piece of cake to... 2007-04-02T09:52:00Z 2007-04-02T09:52:00Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1177 Yeah. Took far more banging my head against a wall than I would have liked, but I think I tweaked out my frankenstein mixed part mesh. :blink: I still have to slap a texture on it and give it some in-game testing, but so far so good. Hopefully sometime this weekend I'll get a chance to upload... 2007-04-01T00:09:02Z 2007-04-01T00:09:02Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1168 I think I'm going to do something out of the blue and change up the way I'm putting out these NHL jerseys. Back when I was doing the NFL gear, it was literally my first time meshing with recolouring Sims2 stuff and all. Yes. I was wack. I was a n00b. :blink: THANKFULLY, I've grown since then.... 2007-03-22T15:59:24Z 2007-03-22T15:59:24Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1140 ...Pardon my typos (if any) and caveman speak. Burnt the midnight oil on this one. Good news is I think they bury my NFL sets in terms of quality. Set's in moderation right now so if it passes approval, all should be rockin'... Must sleep now... Good night and unga bunga...... :sheep: :sheep: ... 2007-03-21T09:00:40Z 2007-03-21T09:00:40Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1137 ...the Atlantic Division! It was close though. I'm actually surprised I got as many responses as I did so first and foremost thank you all for participating and sharing your input. :up: So, the rundown will go like this: Atlantic Northeast/Pacific (will be a coin toss) Northwest/Southeast (yet... 2007-03-17T15:21:02Z 2007-03-17T15:21:02Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1127 Okay, quick feedback poll (If anyone bothers to read these journal entries). It's been about a decade since I've kept up with hockey so needless to say I have a lot of homework to do with this next project. My question to you, my loyal sports fans out there, which division should I start... 2007-03-14T06:02:49Z 2007-03-14T06:02:49Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1119 Thanks to the awesome folks who take the time out to write extremely detailed tutorials on this site, I was able to dabble in the black art of Mesh Modding. It was scary. :blink: Thankfully I had a wee bit of 3D knowledge prior to this otherwise I would have turned tail and run. I braved through... 2007-03-13T16:50:52Z 2007-03-13T16:50:52Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1117 It's a shame. I remember early last year (2006) when I first found MTS2, I was overwhelmed by the amount of free content found here. I downloaded tons of stuff and felt guilty as all hell because it felt like a crime. Everyone was so helpful and courteous it almost felt like I stumbled upon The... 2007-03-02T19:48:20Z 2007-03-02T19:48:20Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1090 Not much to say today. I'm probably gonna get these last couple of college jersey requests banged out by the weekend then take a break (once again) from football jerseys all together for a while. Staring at the same thing time and time again kinda drives you stir crazy so I think I'm gonna branch... 2007-02-22T23:43:05Z 2007-02-22T23:43:05Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1063 Not a bad Superbowl if I do say so myself. I swear that first quarter was about as wild as you can get. Definately worth watching. :up: I can't say I'm a Colts or Bears fan. I like certain players and coaches on each team, but to say I actually like the teams wouldn't be right. *Cheers to Dungy... 2007-02-05T16:53:05Z 2007-02-05T16:53:05Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1018 No... not the Greenbay Packers*snicker*, just my Superbowl Party Pack. So far so good. I've received a good amount of feedback from oh ye wonderous Sim fans out there. I'm just thankful it got resolved relatively quickly. I know they give you a time frame for approval/disapproval but on average... 2007-02-04T15:48:45Z 2007-02-04T15:48:45Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1016 ....and is in the queue pending approval. Hopefully it'll get resolved relatively quickly but if not, then keep an eye out... it'll be out there by hook or by crook. Total outfit count in the pack: 38 Sweeeeet. :up: 2007-02-03T18:22:22Z 2007-02-03T18:22:22Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=1015 I've received some requests as of late from our dear female football fans out asking for Bears jerseys for the ladies. I know I ranted and raved about not doing anymore NFL stuff for a while, but since the playoffs were so good (and I'm a sucker for the ladies), I've decided to go one step further... 2007-01-23T15:42:33Z 2007-01-23T15:42:33Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=986 Now, because of this new task I'm putting all other projects on hold for the moment (so anyone with stuff still pending it'll be a wee bit longer). The Big Game is on the 4th so I'm going to try and have this out by or before then. I'm working with a bunch of meshes/textures I haven't messed with... 2007-01-23T15:40:25Z 2007-01-23T15:40:25Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=985 OKay... it's not bad news, per say, just some rants and information I want to get out before production begins. If you read any part of this three part announcement, make it this because it's the most important. Nothing drives me more crazy than people who just read what they want to read. If you... 2007-01-23T15:38:08Z 2007-01-23T15:38:08Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=984 I guess that title rehashes bad high school memories for me. You all know how it was - cliques and clubs dominated by the popular and everyone one else on the outside looking in. Mind you, it's not the same situation here, but it still brings back those memories. :( In contrast though, unlike... 2007-01-18T15:41:19Z 2007-01-18T15:41:19Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=969 ... at least not for a while. I don't think a lot of people realize how many NFL jerseys I've done for the community. Let's do the math: I covered all 32 teams. The Browns, Colts, Patriots, Bills, Pittsburgh, Oakland, KC, Dallas, Washington, Chicago, Green Bay, and Seattle all have just home... 2007-01-14T17:01:07Z 2007-01-14T17:01:07Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=953 *yawn* Well Christmas is here. I know there are a ton of other holidays coming or here already that don't get as much attention, so please excuse me for not shouting them out. I'm not gonna waste everyone's time with long drawn out holiday dribble. Ya'll know I love all of ya no matter what it... 2006-12-23T17:44:39Z 2006-12-23T17:44:39Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=872 I know I posted about them before, but the project is quickly coming to light. Considering there are (were) only 8 teams it shouldn't be too hard to pull off. I doubt I'll put any names on the jerseys (cuz like who the heck can remember any of them), but they'll be kinda funky to have around. :up:... 2006-12-09T15:45:03Z 2006-12-09T15:45:03Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=810 Yes yes, I've come back from my Sabatical and I come bearing good news. It was my birthday yesterday so I decided to give gifts this year rather than receive. :king: Currently there are several uploads of requets in the moderation queue. Four College Team Jersey Sets... a Steelers base install... 2006-12-07T17:02:34Z 2006-12-07T17:02:34Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=804 Note: Updated 3/22/2007 Ok... here (once again) are my official rules for submitting a jersey request. You must follow these rules if you want a jersey (or jersey set) done or else I will not respond and your request PM will be deleted. I've received far too many PMs that follow little or none of... 2006-11-26T17:15:52Z 2006-11-26T17:15:52Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=765 ... but not for good. Just for the Holidays. ;) As it stands I've got Thanksgiving coming up. Shortly after that (like about a week and change to be percise) my birthday drops. Then as we all know X-mas is not too far off in the distance. And let's not forget New Years about a week after that...... 2006-11-20T13:57:19Z 2006-11-20T13:57:19Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=751 While getting prepared for my much needed vacation, I found myself sifting through Yahoo's newswire. I came across an article that stirred up my long dormant ire about pro sport player salaries. (For those interested the aticle is here). I don't even want to get into the social commentary aspect... 2006-11-20T01:19:53Z 2006-11-20T01:19:53Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=749 I swear... I hate and love being a sports fan. I know.. I sound like Gollum, but still. It's such an rush to be caught up in the hype of Rivaly Week. I've been a Wolverine fan since ...hmm... I'd have to say '94. I made a road trip up to Ann Arbor with a couple of buddies to go catch a game. I had... 2006-11-19T02:49:25Z 2006-11-19T02:49:25Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=745 Wow. What a programming nightmare that was for NBC, huh? I love Vince McMahon though. He's my business IDOL. That man knows how to make money and not lose it. I especially love the way he put all the liability in NBC's hands so that when it crumbled, he really took no damage from it. Brilliant!... 2006-11-16T17:40:02Z 2006-11-16T17:40:02Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=735 I've put a lot of thought into the Canadian Football League. I visit Canada on a regular basis so I'm very familiar with the teams and the fans. It's a very popular American myth that Canadians love hockey and nothing else. Canadians are just like everyone else in the world; they love all sports.... 2006-11-15T15:56:33Z 2006-11-15T15:56:33Z https://modthesims.info/journal.php?do=showcomments&e=728
