(Short answer: computer issues, back in a week or so I hope!)

First and foremost I want to thank everyone who's ever downloaded anything I've made here at TSR, it's a huge boost to see my download numbers go above 1 million!

Secondly, I want to apologise for being so quiet (it's unusual, I know!) and not:

a) uploading any new parts to my story; or

b) uploading any new creations.

Unfortunately I've been having rotten computer trouble. I can launch my Sims 3 game for long enough to see if something I've made is working correctly, but not long enough to get any decent screenshots. My little laptop can't handle it and it just overheats. Obviously playing for long enough to get screenshots for my story is just out of the question, even though I've got about 3 parts ahead of where I am now actually written.

Add to this that objects in the Workshop are in beta, and my laundry room set is being held back by a little bug right now. I have, however, created the meshes and textures for several items in the set, and I'm continuing to work on them. As soon as I have a computer that will play TS3 without overheating so I can test adequately and take screenshots I hope I'll be able to release something.

And that computer is, in theory on its way. It's very theoretical right now because according to my order status it's not been built yet, and the parts haven't even been picked. But hopefully in about a week or so I will receive a new high end gaming computer. I'll keep you posted :)
