Invader Bloo 10-18-2006 11:46 AM

Blake is stupid. :P
The 2 moons thing was cool!

Nyo 10-18-2006 02:08 PM

Frankie looked cool.

Kzinistzerg 10-19-2006 03:20 PM

That is so awesome. I agree, blake has NO taste.

Hehe, richie and sweetums. I fher name is sweetums, what would you call her as a pet name? Actualy, don't answer that one.

Sparky 10-19-2006 05:31 PM

Despite being ill, I managed to drag myself out of the apartment today to pick up the Pets expansion pack. I think I am going to give Terrence a dog. ;)

kageri 10-20-2006 01:21 PM

On the subject of Frankie, I suppose sticking one's fingers in one's mouth and whistling very loudly would be inappropriate here. Which is okay because I, sadly, don't know how to do that.

......but how do you fall off a treadmill? It has handles, even! Sims never cease to baffle me.

I fell off before...but that was because I jumped on while it was moving.
It hurt.

Kzinistzerg 10-21-2006 03:28 PM

I just use stairs; they dont move when you walk. The good kind, anwyay.

Cassini90125 11-25-2006 09:05 PM

I have no idea how they fall off the treadmill. They do get better at it over time, but in the beginning they get bruised a lot.

I picked up the Pets expansion recently, so there may be some four-legged Sims coming up here soon.

So many comments on Frankie's little black dress! She did look great, yeah, in that outfit and a few others I've tried out on her. I'm willing to take requests, by the way, if y'all want to see her or any of the others in a particular outfit, although I don't want to turn this into a "Foster's Fashions" thread. Don't be afraid to ask, though.

New random shots from the Valley

This is the last ever shot of Sweetums Bratman and her Imaginary Friend Tiffany as children:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...125/1-ST-a.jpg

A few minutes after this shot was taken, the two of them reached their age transition and turned into teenagers:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...125/2-ST-b.jpg

I don't much care for the outfit that the game chose for Sweetums but I haven't done anything to change it yet. I'll probably pick out something similar to what she wore as a child. With the transition to teens comes the time to choose an Aspiration, too; for Sweetums I chose Pleasure. Fortune might have been a good one for her, but I think it's usually more appropriate for Sims that don't have a lot of money and want to earn a lot more. The Bratmans are already wealthy. Tiffany I gave the Family aspiration, mostly because it just seemed the best fit out of all six choices. Besides, somebody in that house has to be the sensible one.

Oh, that Blake. He juggles, bounces on the furniture like an overgrown cat, and now plays the piano:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...3-Pianoman.jpg

Please note that I did not say that he plays it well. He doesn't. In fact, he's just plain bad. He'll improve in time, I suppose, but until he does I'm keeping the volume down.

Mr Herriman finds someone new to annoy:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...-Irritated.jpg

Some of you may remember Gabe the Valley Pest from the old Forum; this is his father Gregor. I don't know who started this or what it was about; I was playing Mac, seen here meeting Sweetums, at the time. The double negatives appeared over their heads, so I swung the camera around to get the shot. Mac and Sweetums got along fine, much better than in House Of Bloo's, but these two ended up slapping each other. I don't know why Mr. Herriman annoys so many of the other Sims; he almost seems to enjoy it.

Of course, no photo set would be complete without a shot of my favorite Sim:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...25/5-FF189.jpg

You can almost hear her saying something like, "Uh, Cass? You know, you don't have to photograph everything I do." Oh, yes I do, Frankie, yes I do, and in both Bitmap and JPEG formats. This was a random shot; I was playing the house behind her and the game opted to use her as the next walkby. Thank you, game.

And finally, another classic Bloo moment:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...0125/6-BBB.jpg

Here he's discovered the joy of spying on the neighbors, specifically Checo Ramirez. Whenever any of my Sims spy on the neighbors, they always spy on poor Checo. I don't know what he's doing that they find so interesting; I'm not sure I want to know. Shortly after this photo was taken, Checo ran into the house and screamed at Bloo. Bloo screamed back; they shoved each other. Checo then turned and left, waving at Mac as he left. Bloo went to the kitchen and made a sandwich.

The Valley is a very strange place, but I love it. Hope you enjoy these! :D

CG 11-25-2006 09:32 PM

Bloo's face in the last one is CLASSIC.

Well, I'd love to see your Sim Frankie in the nightgown from "Squeakerboxxx" and the blue bikini from "Squeeze the Day"... but I recall you saying on the Frankie thread that you're not willing to show those.

That's odd, because the Frankie sim with those cut off jean shorts were pretty revealing if you ask me.

Not that I'm complaining ;D. Btw Cass, that comment you wrote on how Frankie would say "You know you don't have to photograph everything I do".

I would totally see that....and I would probably respond the same way you did to that. Heh.

Fomalhaut 11-26-2006 02:56 AM

I like them! Gregor annoyed... when will someone annoy his eldest son? For he deserves it...

Invader Bloo 11-26-2006 07:52 AM

I really want Sims now. :D

I'm just not sure they're appropriate for a G-rated board. If I find out otherwise, I'll think about it.

Not as revealing as that nightgown. ;) The choice when I created her boiled down to either the cutoffs with sneakers or a skirt like the one on the show with heels; I went with the former because sneakers are a more logical choice for someone who's on her feet all day. Footwear is not a separate item in the game; beats me why. Lazy game designers is my guess. Maybe they'll change that when the Sims 3 comes out in 2009.

The bitmap photos of her are 2 megabytes in size; large, but worth every pixel. :frankiesmile:

Sparky 11-26-2006 09:24 AM

I love your Mr Herriman. :D

And the Sim of my brother loves to spy on Professor Membrane across the street. One day the Professor is going to come over and kick his butt.

Invader Bloo 11-26-2006 09:42 AM

It's always intresting to see someone experiment on little hamster/gopher things. ;)

Voxxyn 11-26-2006 03:41 PM

Cass, it's OK if you don't want to show those. I didn't ask to see her in those outfits solely because I'm some shallow-minded pervert who only admires the "surface" attributes of the female. You know that my love of Frankie is way more sincere and genuine than that. I apologize if I struck you or anybody the wrong way with that request.

Mr. Marshmallow 11-26-2006 04:14 PM

I wasn't offended.

While I am by no means myself a pervert, I cannot help but admit a very deep curiosity to see those images.

Despite the fact that I myself have more deep seeded feelings for Frankie then just her looks like Vox said. But I don't think your perverse for wanting to see them Vox. Nor do I think anyone else should.

Because as the Matrix so brilliantly stated it:

"To deny our own impulses is to deny the very thing that makes us human".

But if you really do feel the need to not show the pics due to the supposed graphic nature of them, that's understandable too.

Cassini90125 11-26-2006 05:33 PM

Guys, I am not in the least bit offended, and I don't think you or anyone else here is a pervert. What I am saying very specifically is that I am uncertain as to whether or not the shots are appropriate for the Forum (they're not graphic, by the way), and I'm erring on the side of caution, just to be safe.

New family in the Valley!

Earlier this afternoon I was running the game to see if some new goodies I downloaded for my Sims had properly installed. When that was done, I decided to mess around with the Create-A-Sim program, not for any particular reason, just to see what it could do and to kill a little time. Here, stars help us all, is the end result:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...0125/Nixon.jpg

Yep, it's the original five Sailor Scouts, along with their new parents, Richard and Solana, complete with personalities, Aspirations, and angst. Life in Foster's Valley just got a whole lot more complicated...

:D

Mr. Marshmallow 11-26-2006 05:58 PM

I have just 4 words for that pic:

:wiltshock:

Holy hell.....that's awesome!!!

kageri 11-26-2006 07:35 PM

Bloo's expression in that last picture = LOVE.

Now I have that horrible theme song from the English dub of Sailor Moon in my head. SHE IS THE ONE NAMED SAILOR MOON!

Hey I LOVED that horrible theme song, and I STILL love Sailor Moon. I'm a guy and a fan of Sailor Moon and proud of it.

Cassini90125 11-26-2006 08:19 PM

Uh, does anyone know where I could download that song? :-[

Mr. Marshmallow 11-26-2006 08:22 PM

I download all my music off of Limewire.

I actually have a Sailor Moon music CD that has some of the songs from the show, including a Japanese version of the Sailor moon opening theme.

I suggest getting Limewire or Morpehus or some other music sharing program, I doubt it would be very hard to find Cass.

I used to watch it, but looking back on it (and having heard the Japanese theme) the English theme song is pretty durn funny. :'D

Howard 11-28-2006 10:25 AM

Cassini90125, I just finally got the time to go through your Sims series - me likey! Especially Frankie - she looks hawt!:frankiesmile:

Fomalhaut 12-05-2006 09:35 PM

I want to be friends with Sailor Mercury and Jupiter!!! Especially the first one, she was my fave in the series!!! (Yes, used to be a fan when I was 8-9. Now I'm nearly 19) :D

You should see them moving around on the screen; it's nothing like the original cartoon. Seeing Sailor Moon in three dimensions, watching those huge anime eyes blink... it was astonishing, completely mesmerizing.

By the way, guys, they're all unattached. :D

I'm planning to have some fun with the Blooregard in the not-too-distant future. Fun for him, anyway; the other Sims may not be so happy about it when he starts dumping detergent into fountains. 8D

One is never too old for Sailor Moon. ;D

Six more random shots from Foster's Valley:

Cheese meets the real Big Cheese:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...heese_Kyle.jpg

This is a random encounter between Cheese and Kyle Harrison, local con man and Cheese's mentor in the criminal arts. The two first met about two months ago and for some reason Kyle took a liking to him. Beats me why. Nice outfit there, Kyle.

Oooooooo, bluuuuuue...:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...Blue_Angel.jpg

The outfit is by Sunair, one of the most talented artists over at the Sims Resource site (link available on request). I've always thought Frankie would look great in blue; guess I was right. Here she's getting a jump on lunch; the IF's won't be home from school for another half an hour, but why wait? Chef salad is on the menu today, and after lunch was over there wasn't so much as a crouton left. In the background is a birdcage; more on that shortly.

Genius (sort of) at work:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1.../RabbitArt.jpg

Mr. Herriman hasn't left this thing alone since I installed it. He even ignores hunger and bathroom needs to paint. He gets out of bed in the morning, heads straight for the easel, and gets right to work. He does seem to be having an awfully good time with it, and his finished paintings do bring in some cash, so I usually just let him be. It's one less Sim I have to keep track of.

Boy meets bird:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...ilt_Parrot.jpg

Bendy and Berry both wanted a bird, yet Wilt is the one who likes playing with it. Moments after this shot was taken, the bird bit him. Stupid parrot has bitten everyone that tries to play with it and it eats as much as Eduardo. If anyone reading this plays the game and has the Pets expansion, don't buy the birdcage! Oh, and yes, I named it Larry. :D

Awwwwwww...:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...lake_Shane.jpg

Richie Wildebrat has a new baby brother, Shane Wildebrat. One evening the newborn woke up and started crying for his bottle. I clicked on his mom to feed him, but Blake Superior, of his own volition, took care of the matter before she got downstairs. Take a good long look at this photo, folks; I'll bet you'll never watch "Hiccy Burp" quite the same way again.

And finally, every so often the game gives me a dream shot:

http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...The_2_Best.jpg

Two of my favorite cartoon characters, having a quiet conversation, nothing more. Or is it? Take a look at the speech balloon over Sailor Jupiter's head. From the game's standpoint, she's expressing an interest in science fiction, but from where I'm sitting, she's clearly telling Frankie the tragic story of Sailor Saturn. I could hardly believe I was seeing this.

Dang game really gets to me sometimes. :frankiesmile:

That is SO cool, I am a die hardcore Jupiter fan, I always felt she was the most under appreciated Sailor Scout. Seeing her with Frankie there, that's just a dam sweet scene if you don't mind me saying.

Also, Frankie's position makes her look a bit "revealed" honestly. Not to sound pervertish but that's a REALLY nice shot for her.

Wendi 12-08-2006 01:52 PM

Aww! :] The picture of Blake Superior feeding the baby brother is soo cute!! :D

"C" the Dragon 12-08-2006 02:05 PM

Your Sailor Moon charaters are SWEET!!!:D I loved that show! Too bad it's cancled...

Cassini90125 12-17-2006 12:36 AM

The Sailor Sims are fascinating to watch; Sailor Moon in particular is very much like I remember her from the original cartoon. For the record, in the game they're all known as the Nixon family. Don't plan on seeing them too much, though; after all, this is a Foster's Forum. :)

Since today is Koosie's birthday, and he's got Bendy listed as a favorite character, here's a video titled "Bendy behaving badly":

http://s47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...urrent=BBB.flv

The monster has awakened... :o

Sparky 12-17-2006 03:49 PM

*rolls* I knew Sims could do that but I'd never seen it. Alas, I don't have time to play it anymore. :'(

CG 12-17-2006 06:56 PM

Jebus H Crispies! What set that off? Tsk tsk, what a naughty boy! He should get spanked for that. If anyone dares. :p

Cassini90125 12-24-2006 12:44 PM

Season's Greetings

Well done, Cassini. :)

CG 12-24-2006 02:18 PM

Could you make Frankie's neck dip any lower? Is that a bizzare homage to my picture? :p Either way, Merry Christmas to ye too Cassini. Much love and best wishes.

Cassini90125 12-24-2006 05:48 PM

The solo pic of her I took afterward was unbelievable. Either way, that was about the tamest outfit I could find for her on any of the Sims sites.

Howard 12-24-2006 10:52 PM

Sweet Cass! The gang's all here!:frankiesmile:
