Simblr a.k.a Tumblr

I could be resurrecting this blog as it may be easier for me to organize my stuff (poses).  We'll see.

In the meantime, you can find me over on Tumblr where I've been more active:  http://vigmed.tumblr.com/

I Feel Like Writing Again.

I know where I want to start, too. Beginning with the ideas that have been most recent in my mind, fueled by a competition that left me wanting to explore two individuals, and working with the what if's. Something I would have been doing anyway for my rebooted story.  Suppose that would be a good place to start.

For me, starting was always the most difficult, because then I feel obligated to finish.

My Coolness Being Doubted...

... I was goaded into making a Tumblr account: V's Other Box of Sand

It's kinda nice for the quick posting of a pic!  It did make me look through my screenshots folder that I haven't viewed in some time and I noticed at least one set I need to post here.  Could be good for a laugh.

Taking A Deep Breath...

... TO WOOSH! THE DUST OFF MY BLOG!

Yeah, I don't know what happened with it exactly, but I could not get into my blog.  Kept getting some security warning, so I gave up on it.  Tried it again just a few minutes ago and it worked!  Was greeted by the familiar face of one Gabriel Stark looking very much like Gabriel Stark.  Whatever that means.  I was happy and just a lil' excited, wee bit. 

But what now!?  I dunno.  Fiddle my thumbs for now I guess.  I will think on this as I stare fascinated by the rotation of my thumbs.

OM...B!? The Con That Was Berrified.

First assignment: Berry-Con.  I was completely lost and not sure what I was going to be doing for this.  We were given the task of meeting our favorite Berry Sims and to dress up as them.  A tough start!  I am not too familiar with Berries.  Aside from two, that is.  Fairy and Victoria.  Some time ago I was granted permission to use these two wonderful sims for my story, so they were already in my bin.  But what to do with them?  How could I have Jack dress up as one of them?  It was a pickle of a problem.

This first assignment would also be the one assignment that I put forth a bit of time into.  As it turns out, it is also my highest scored picture, too.  Whudathunkit!?  This was the pic that made me want to come back later and talk just a little bit about them.  With the pic being small some details are missed.  And with this, there are a few things going on in the background.

The Bestest Berry of All-Time Competition.

A Berry Sweet Modeling Competition, actually.  The timing for this comp. had been perfect, I guess.  Can't quite say what possessed me to enter it, but I did.  And not only that but I made it through and was accepted to compete!  I was surprised.  For a long time now I've wanted to enter one of these competitions but the timing was never good.  Cause, well, it's me and time is everything to me.  What really surprised me most is how much fun I am having with it.  Although I do feel sorry for everyone for occasionally holding up the competition... cause I'm slow!  (Sorry, Berry!)

One of the things I wanted to do when this first started was to post pics that didn't quite make it, or maybe should have.  This really came to mind during that first assignment, but I'll get to that in another post.  The first thing that had to be done was qualify with a single picture - not counting the head shot.  Actually, no, the first thing was to find a Berry-Sim.  And I had only one in mind from the get go.  But was he Berry enough?  I didn't know, but I figured I'd at least try and let the judges decide if he was.

I entered Jack C.B. Wintermint.  The pic I used:  (Took a few tries, I couldn't remember how to post an image!)
