The Harrid dynasty (bugged)
« on: February 24, 2011, 11:22:02 AM »
Okay, this is my first ever story/topic I've done, so bear with me!

This is Samantha Harrid, Sam for short. She is the founder of the Harrid dynasty! ;D

The first thing she did was go get a job at the bistro, so her cooking level will be mastered by the time she can take the ambrosia! :)
For the next half hour she went around the neighbor hood for a gentlemen caller. What about Hank Goddard?

For a while Sam was messing around and just trying to get his attention....
They danced right in front of his wife, but she didn't seem to mind!  ;D

Eventually they became friends so Sam put the romance on, ;) when Hank's wife was asleep. Apparently, sleeping sims who are being cheated on in the same room, will wake up. :o

So after that, Sam got really tired at like 2 a.m, so she got into the bed and fell asleep. ;D
Her first day at work wasn't the best because she was so tired, but she did pretty well, considering.

OK, that's it for now, if anyone can help with the picture size, let me know. i use photo bucket.

He he, next time Sam should invite Hank over to her place.

Good luck with the story - I'm looking forward to reading more.

As for resizing your screenshots, I personally think they are fine as is.  I don't know about anyone else, but I love to see the detail in screenshots and when they are too small I have a hard time.

Awesome start! I have always wanted to marry Hank to one of my sims. But he's a vampire now :(

And for photobucket resizing you just click on the picture you want to resize and bring your cursor onto the picture, a bar should then show up at the top of the picture then there should be an option that says "resize" the optimum size for the forum is 640x480, I think



EDIT: the size of the first two pictures look good.

Hmm..weird. The top two pictures look about right.
Did you make sure you copied the IMG code directly after you posted it in the reply box? Because sometimes I will forget to resize and put the code in here then press preview, realize I didn't resize and try again. Then it still is big even though I resized it. So what you have to do is delete that IMG code of the problem picture and copy the entire text you already wrote and refresh the reply page. Then put it all back together again and it should work. If not re-upload the picture and try again. I hope that made sense. :P

I use photobucket too and usually I use the "bulk uploader".  I take a bunch of screenshots for my stories, go to photobucket and click "upload now" choose which folder I want to place them in.  Click on "browse" and find your pictures which I just go to "my documents", "EA folder", "screenshots" and when I click screenshots, it places all of your screenshots in a window, you click "select all" and before you click upload, below the bottom portion, you will see a spot to resize all of them, I use 17" monitor and best resolution for mine and that way they all resize at once.  After they are downloaded, then you "save and continue" and they have fixed it now, where you just move your cursor over the pic, the img code comes up, you don't even have to right click any more, just click and it automatically copied and then you go to your reply for your dynasty and right click and paste.  It sounds like alot of steps, but it really does not take long at all.  I use "word pad" and write my story and put my screenshots on that and then copy and paste into the reply.  I hope I did not confuse you.  It is quite easy and I am sort of technically challenged, lol.  If I can explain any better, I will PM you, instead of going off topic.
Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?
