[LouieLove]

OMG really? THANK YOU!! I was looking for a sim to start it ( I am about to go work on first chapter now) I LOVE Asha and Laniel It will be hard to choose!!! thanks again! wow I feel so lucky!-I hope there are good male walk by's....

[Astral Faery]

Don't forget - Lainel is an elf, if that makes a difference.  Hooray!  I can't wait to see one of my sims start your legacy!  That is SO COOL!!

[LouieLove]

LOL It wont be as good as yours, I dont have your talent..But I'll try, I feel bad though too some of the things in my game happened (withought being planed) that R the same in your game..sorry!

[Astral Faery]

That's unavoidable in a legacy, Louie.  There are going to be many similarities from one legacy to the next.  There are several similar things that have happened with Sadie's and my games - that's just the nature of sims  I'm really looking forward to reading it.  Alright - so who'd you get for your founder?  I've been dying to find out!!

[LouieLove]

LOL you'll see (I will give you full credit 4 her) but my photobucket wont upload the pics..I think I am doing something wrong..I took like 3 chapters worth of pics so hopefully they'll all be up this weekend! Thanks again!

Yay updates! I love you Astral! *hugglez*

[LouieLove]

*groans* Ok, so I took all of my pic and I found them in one of those folders after a mad search, I moved them to MY Pictures but when I try to upload them to photobucket the pics arent in the folder anymore!

[Astral Faery]

Aw, thank you SimKween!

Louie - oh no!  You didn't lose all your pictures did you?  This is probably late information, but your pictures are always located here:

My Documents/EAGames/The Sim 2/Neighborhoods/N00?/Storytelling

The N00? is variable and depends on which neighborhood you're using.  Pleasantview is  N001, Strangetown is N002, Veronaville is N003.  The newer neighborhoods that have come with the last few Expansion Packs have slightly different names, like G001 for RiverBlossom Hills (Seasons), F001 for Desiderata Valley(Freetime), and E001 for Belladonna Cove (Apartment Life).

Inside each neighborhood's Storytelling folder you'll find snapshots and thumbnails.  The snapshots are the ones you want to select to upload to photobucket.  It's extremely helpful if you rename each snapshot because it will make it much easier to find. Otherwise it will have a label 'snapshot xxxxx' that is assigned to it.  The x's are actually a series of letters and numbers.  You can also change the size of your snapshots by looking under the camera options on the control panel ingame.  Large is the size I always use - it's 600x450.

Does that help at all?  Or is the issue something else?  I sure hope you didn't lose your pictures - that's a heartbreaking experience!

I got it!- the first couple chapters will be up soon!

[Astral Faery]

Hooray!

I can finally stop spamming on here now!

I was thinking of starting my own legacy... But I can't stop cheating. I'm a failure. =]

[Music_Is_Life]

I have that same problem, ilovejb. I like my sims to live a life of luxury right off the bat.

It doesn't matter - unless you're trying to score it.

At one of the forums where I hung out, we did what we called a 'Faux Legacy' - where we each made our own rules and did what we were comfortable with.  The main points were to start with a founder, marry a townie, and procreate - repeating the process as many times as we felt like - whether it be 2, 5, or 10 generations.  And everything we did inbetween was left up to the individual.
