THE GOODBYE

2010-09-27T10:24:00.000-07:00

This is the goodbye, my friends. This is when I realize I must leave to continue with other aspects of my life. But I won't completely disappear, no. My site will remain active for as long as I can keep it, I'll check it once in a while, and who knows, maybe I'll be back with ts3 if I get a new computer! That's a really odd chance, but it is possible. And now, for the corny ones...
I remember those good old days when I was really young (about 13) and such a newbie on the community, when I found that awesome site with tutorials and a lot of custom content called MTS and was amazed by all the possibilites the game gave us. It was definitelly a new world to me. But this didn't come alone, it made me know other sites which shocked me by their so out of this world owners: peggysims2, tharasims, raonsims. I was almost in love with those sites!
I also remember my first hair, pretty famous I must admit, with the giantic bangs pulled back and the curly textures. It lacked so much quality, but I was so proud of it. I felt like I had so much fun to have ahead, and it was actually true.
However, I was lost in the custom content creations world at first, specially with hairs since they're considered to be the most difficult piece of CC to create, and that's when I met on a forum post my dear, old friend Anto. We were both obviously a mess at that moment: textures were flat, meshes were blocky, animations were just...so not natural lol! But we improved, and kept improving, until I reached an ok level and he became the huge master he is nowadays. Of course he wasn't the only person I met. I also got to know some others like Noukie, Dave, Vivian, Hysterical Paroxysm, Escand, etc. who helped and entertained me so many times.
Once I thought I was good enough, I decided to make my own website. It was so exciting to do the design, choose a hosting; another new world to me. I started to get more and more visits until after two years I reached 4 000 visits a day. It felt good to see how people liked your downloads and decided to use them in their games. I believe that's one of the best memories I get from the sims.
But this has changed, unfortunately. The last couple of months I've seen the community die. I remember when there were hundreds of active sites with amazing creators. Being surrounded by almost nothing was really sad, and made me want to go, cause I don't wanna be stucked with the sims forever and I already know that I've spent too much time with them.
So I guess this is pretty much it! I'm really sorry for those who like my creations but I'm afraid I'll leave the community no matter what (not that I was so active before anyway lol). I had the greatest times, and I had tons of fun. I've always appreciated your feedback and your supporting words, so thank you for all.

P.S: I'd love to know about you this one last time, so be free to say anything you want!
P.S 2: I've uploaded all of my files to one directory so it's easier for everyone, and now you don't have to go through 3 different places to find my cc. That's why now posts are not visible anymore. But so you know, I have all of your amazing comments of the previous posts saved, but just for myself. Thank you.
