Hi guys, my Sim was out yesterday and got hungry. But why buy food or barbecue when he has delicious fruit in his inventory? However, he had to eat 4 apples, so that the hunger bar was a little more than half full. Uh, if I eat two apples, I'm stuffed. I remembered that I had downloaded a mod a long time ago. I can't find it again. My thoughts that I had the mod from LitteMsSam or Bienchen83 were wrong, but I don't remember where I got it from. So I apologize in advance to the actual creator that I made my own version of it. It is actually only meant for me, but maybe somebody can use it anyway. By default, an apple or other harvestables fill the hunger bar at 15%. In my version it is 40%. If you assume that you never wait until the bar reaches zero anyway, it's pretty realistic if a sim is sated after 2 apples.
Hope you can enjoy this mod. ☺️

Hi guys! I love this Desert Luxe Kit Awning. But it is just one piece in 4 units wide. Not every backyard has dimensions that are divisible by 4 and sometimes back yards also have corners, inside and outside. So I made 5 more, 1 unit wide, 2, untis wide, 3 units wide, an inner corner and an outer corner. Btw. I must make the outer corner so huge, otherwise you can't set it on corner wall. My first model was not bigger than the inner side. And I must say, I love it! ❤️ Hope you'll like it too. 😊
Oh and Desert Luxe Kit is required. Sorry!

It has come to my attention, and many other creators’ attention, that a website under the name SimsDom is posting external links to CC creator’s content under ad links (60 seconds), therefore, profiting off of our content without our permission. While the mods of the site plead this is not illegal, it does not excuse the fact that they are in violation of many users’ TOUs (and possibly copyright infringement as a whole), and actions such as these are incredibly upsetting and inexcusable.
Here are just a few pieces of unauthorized CC:
Notice that none of the content pictured indicates a creator name (unless specified in the original, stolen image). Only when you search for your URL specifically, your content will not be immediately shown.
And to expand upon the real issue, your CC posts are being monetized before a user visits your original post. (Even so, this isn’t always the case, either. Some posts on SimsDom link to the download itself, rather than the original post. So you may be missing out on notes or reblogs of your content. This method tends to vary) If someone were to download content on SimsDom, they’d either have to sit through a 60 second ad (while an adblocker is enabled) or become a member of the site to disable all ads, therefore speeding up the downloading/browsing process, much like TSR. (the only difference being that TSR creators/users upload the content themselves)
The price for membership ranges anywhere between ~$2 a month to ~$20 a year. All without creator permission! Not only are they taking advantage of creators, they are taking advantage of their users/members.
And to make matters worse, when a creator makes a request to have their content removed from the site, they are met with indifference and disrespect. A fellow content creator, @isjao, requested to have their content removed, this is how the conversation played out:
The message on the right can be translated to (as per Google Translate):
“Hello, isjao. Your request for site administration was passed on and we reviewed your request better. We have seen that you are a creator who really does not deserve any downloads coming from the SimsDomination. SimsDomination usually sends between 30% and 90% of the total downloads to a creator. If you want to be a creator of Tumblr, you will be. We’ve removed your creations and blocked future directions to your Tumblr and site. If we see indications of Tumblrs that have relogared their posts, as the link informed, we will remove as well. But keep in mind that you are not the only item creator in the world. It’s not we who depend on you and yes, you rely on disclosure to help you have more downloads. The indications for your items have been removed. We wish you a great week.”
And in a Tumblr post, SimsDom addressed the issue as well:
While I understand many CC creators use services such as Adfly (myself included), Patreon or receive donations through PayPal or Ko-Fi, this does not mean we shouldn’t have control over who is able to use our content for profit or forfeit the right to request it doesn’t. And when a simple request is made to have content removed, we shouldn’t be met with disrespect.
SimsDom is clearly violating our rights to our content, and they need to be held accountable. If possible, I urge you to get in contact with a site admin if you feel as though you are being treated unlawfully or disrespectfully. Be sure to notify fellow content creators if you see their content being used without their permission! And in the meantime, I, as well as others, will research a way to get this site removed.
The list has been compiled by @petaluh. Your work is greatly appreciated!
Sometimes I don't understand the creators at EA. Sometimes they make a ceiling light in 3 different heights and sometimes not. Why? Then why the hell did they give us 3 different height walls? So that pendant lights that are too short look ridiculous?
Anyway, I think the cupcake lights are so cute, I had to have them in several heights. Even though I usually just play with the normal wall height, I love playing with the heights and making the lights smaller if necessary, as you can see in the next pictures.
The lights come in every original Swatch, of course, and a few Recolors, though not 100 or so, just a few that suit my taste. There is an extra recolour file for the original lights. As you can see, I have a fable for lilac shades. Feel free to create your own recolours and delete mine if you don't like them.
By the way, on the last picture you can see only my recolours.

DISCLAIMER: I do not condone bullying in any shape of form of the creator in question / other creators (that use adlfy) / myself or anyone that responds to this post! All very immature/hateful/hurtful remarks that do not carry on to the conversation will be removed and depending on the severity (threatening someone, etc) of those remarks… I will block you as well. I made this video and post for anyone that uses Adfly/Short.e to shed some light on this returning discussion and most importantly; the alternatives.
After very careful consideration of all the risks I'm taking by making this post I felt a bit obligated to the community, as a fellow creator that also monetizes her CC, to take a stand on this. I will accept any fall out regarding this post. before we continue I’d like to express my gratitude to a group of people who helped me out in lots of ways! <333 English is not my first language so their help has been highly appreciated! I could not silently stand by anymore while children, grown ups, friends… everyone actually risks to pay lots of money to save their PC’s from destruction for $0,02485 dollars. Per click. I did the math in the highest payout rate, USA. I made a short video to demonstrate what happened when I clicked on Adfly / short.e links. Best to be watched on Desktop / iPad / bigger screens than phone.
I'm on an iMac. This makes it sooo much less bad for me than Windows Users. Also the only reason why I was able to do this without risking my computer. OS X pretty much has an build-in ironclad protection to files shown in the video.
Most of the people in this community are on a PC which makes them so much more vulnerable to all the shit that auto downloads and in some cases installs itself, without you having any say in it, as you can see.
As you can see in the vid; I did not click on the files that started downloading themselves. Know that Windows users are even more at risk(!) since these files (virus exe) can start installing themselves on their own. I have to give my iMac a password to install ANY software. That’s why I wasn’t at risk during the demo’s.
I have to admit that the demo’s in the vid are DEFINITELY not worst case scenarios! Please be mindful of that! I freed up a lot of desktop space as you can see for the endless pop-up ads to appear which ‘unfortunately’ did not occur this time around. In lots cases I get lost in an endless loop of shortners (never arriving at the promised directory) or a massive amounts of pop ups open forcing me to close the shortner window altogether. I cannot even comprehend how much worse it is for Windows users!
These are literal comments I’ve seen recently and in the past regarding this topic. THIS IS NOT TRUE! as you can see I did not click on ANY of the ads unless they required to be closed through the ad ‘close’ section to make sure the timer continues to run. Through the years of development for these ads; most of them require you to click ‘close’ (engage with them) before the countdown of Adfly/Short.e continues to run again. How am I supposed to get to your content if i can't click ‘close’ then?!
Also; the extra tabs that open need to be closed first before the timer starts running again. And when you close them they can auto download a file you didn’t clicked on. In the past they were less aggressive I agree. You could “safely” wait out those 5 sec and get to the designated URL of the CC. In most cases this isn’t an option anymore.
Regarding this post: I’ve said everything I wanted to say about this topic. I will not engage in endless discussions in the comments. tbh I might not even engage at all since I don’t have anything more/new to say about this.
I’ll elaborate on the alternatives in this post HERE. This post is already too long.
