Can't seem to upload Sims at the moment...
Been trying to upload Sims ready to be submitted ever since last night and I don't know whether it's my computer or TSR servers, or what, but on IE, I keep getting an error message that the submission page cannot be found after it's been uploading my Sims for like, 5 minutes and on Firefox, I just get a blank page after five minutes of uploading.
I have three Sims that I am waiting to upload to this place and I only just managed to get my Morticia Addams one to upload through some weird twist of fate last night...can't get it to upload any more now. I can upload pictures to my galleries and update my profile perfectly fine, but when it comes to uploading stuff, it just won't have it.
If anyone else is having these kinds of problems or knows anything about why my computer or the TSR servers might be doing this, please let me know.
HUGE ICON GALLERY UPDATE
Just rooted through my old Photobucket account and chosen the best of the icons that I have ever made from my collection to pop up on here. There all kinds of celebrities covered in the icons, so please, go and have a look and see if one of your favourite famous people is featured.
Will be uploading with new icons that I make from now and will post in here about updates when they are published.
GALLERY UPDATE AND A NEW GALLERY-PLZ CHECK THEM OUT!
Just a quick blog posts to alert readers of my page that I have added some more Alice pix to his gallery and I have also added the first in hopefully quite a few galleries where I am going to post up any graphics I make.
The new gallery that I have added is going to be filled with 100x100 icons with about 4 new icons that I made in there today already, so please, go on over and have a look see!
Having a bleeping hard time with this!!!
I'm having problems finding out how to work with channels when it comes to Paint Shop Pro X at the moment...keep trying to convert Photoshop tutorials to PSP with my knowledge of the program already and it just ain't having it.
Thinking I may try and find a downloadable trial of Photoshop and try and work with that a bit to get a hang of the Channels thing in general and maybe when I am a bit more clued up, I can try and work that knowledge into Paint Shop Pro. Sigh. All I know is that my brain hurts! LOL!
Finally!!!
FINALLY! I've worked out how to get the .DDS extension working in Paint Shop Pro X just now...hopefully, all things going well, I should be able to start making textures for tshirts and the like very soon. Wish me luck!!!
NEW Alice Cooper Song for Halloween...
Link to video on YouTube here. I love it! LOL! Going to have that in my head all night now. Rock on, Alice!!!

LMAO!!! Couldn't get on my MySpace, so had to post this in here for prosperity.
I guess people looking at my profile will kind of have guessed by now that I am a rather big fan of Alice Cooper. Well! Count me and even bigger fan now! Just seen this commercial (which was supposedly banned for some reason?!) and it cracked me up. Enjoy.
Cut and paste the link into your Internet browser-Alice Cooper like you've never seen him before...TRUST ME! LOL!

Alice Cooper Stuff, plz???
Any Alice Cooper stuff (t-shirts, Sims 2 stuff conversions, posters, etc) would be very welcome. Please make me some of these things if you have the time!!! Thank you!!!
Hmm...
Well, I installed GIMP and got the DDS plugins...and I can't work out how to install them! LOL!
Think I'll save up for Adobe Photoshop and work the DDS plugins into that instead because it's a hell of a lot easier having an automated install wizard put the plugins into the program for you rather than having to code the damn things like you seem to have to do when using GIMP. I'm pretty good with computers but not that good. LOL!
Think I somehow managed to make a texture of Alice Cooper in the pattern creator though...I think...well, I've installed it into the game. Will just have to see how that goes when I actually start the game up. I'm not hopeful.
Going to work on celebrity Sims for the moment, I think. Will start on texturing tshirts and the like after I've bought Photoshop.
