Chuckles, you are truly a master builder.  Kudos to you on every single build you've done so far, and for the ones to come as well.  I know they will be just as marvelous.  I'm downloading them all.

[Chuckles_82]

Thankyou everyone for the lovely comments I have so much fun creating them, and it really is the icing on the cake to see everyone enjoy them.

I look forward to the next building contest to give me ideas for what to build! Even though I grumble to myself about not having my store content, or some in-game content, (I really wanted to put the zodiac animals collection in Zenadu - I have a sim custom made for decorating purposes) I think I enjoy the challenge of finding something that fits, and making it fit the budget.

In the meantime, I have a townhouse to upload for you, Joria It is jam packed with store content and a little exy, so I may do a cheaper, store-free version later.

Chuckles, I moved your tread in this section since even if you upload only lots, it is still not following the scheme everyone else does - one lot = one tread. Here many members have similar treads where their creations are found in one place, they can announce new one etc. I hope your download links are not messed up with this movement, and I'm sorry if they are.
Also, since you post many links for store items, take a look at this tread to make them look nice and neat, which we are encouraging here.
If you need help with it, feel free to ask for it.

And as for your houses, they are fantastic! You proved to be a great builder in so many different styles! My favorite is Zenadu

[Chuckles_82]

Do you mean you would prefer them to be embedded? I had a read, and I didn't know how to do that before. It's not much more difficult that what I'm already doing, so I'll give it a go I was also considering laying out the contents so that each house has basic info like number of bedrooms, price etc, and an embedded link to the post.

[Anushka]

Thank you, I'm glad you'll give it a go!
If you upload the pictures and informations of the lot in a separate tread with uploaded link, here you can add only basic informations and one picture of the lot with embedded link to the topic where you upload it. (I hope this is understandable sentence )

Lilygirl has done something like that without pictures, as well as many other members, with little variations. I'm shore you can find the way that is the most suiting for you.

What pattern did you use for the middle picture behind the bar?
By the way, I see your amazing/awesome/great/perfect idea works like a charm!

[Chuckles_82]

It's 3 different patterns applied to the middle tile of the "Heavy Wood Squares".

I'd like to learn your way  how to make the proper car parking place like that. It's truly amazing!
Also I've never made that kind of idea to make the kitchen like that. I always wanted to let my sim use the chop board on the dining counter!  This idea is very creative!! I got impressed!!   Also I love your living room! Thank you.

And can I introduce this item onto my other community has no English speakers there. So they can't contact and enjoy your items here. They'd love your work!! Just want to get a permission from the creator. Thank you for the fantastic house! I'm downloading for my sim world!:D

[Chuckles_82]

In the rock and stone section of floors, there are some floors that look like marble, with lines. The different parts can be recoloured. If you change the big part to a masonry pattern that looks like tar/gravel, and then change the stripe on the side to be yellow, it makes the lines for the carpark. Do the same for the floor that has the diamond on it. Lots of them together make the x's. The pedestrian section is just the very wide stripe pattern in the geometric patterns. If you look it the Banzai Lounge from Night Life, they have the arrows on the floor there. I recoloured those to have the same texture as the rest. The raised section down the middle and between the entry/exit is platform. The pillars are just 1x1 wall sections. There are also tutorials on how to make a sunken garage - that is how I made the entry/exit go down. I hope this helps

Actually I'm still waiting for someone to take up my request to do a disabled sign pattern. That way I can put it on the two wide spaces at the end closest to the elevator Then it will be truly life-like.

I would be very happy for you to post a link to this thread with a translation for for friends. I love sharing my creations! That is the best part!

Thank you so much for that lovely house chuckles! I love the pool area, and those patterns on the walls are a genius idea! Not sure about the dive well, but it's a funny idea lol. thank you, I'll download soon!
