;D ;D ;D
But seriously, I really miss catching up on the Charms' lives. One of, if not *the* best legacy out there, written like a novel (srsly I'd buy it if it were published, fantastically written), properly exciting drama, controversial, and, and... not updated in months.
'Kay, I know I'm sounding all grabby and toddlery, but it'd be nice to know that you're still out there, Ashleigh!

Aw thanks sian! <3 I had no idea people adored my legacy that much. ^-^ I'll be updating again as soon as I have all my old CC back in my game. I had more game issues and had to uninstall everything again for the millionth time. It's irritating. I think I have a plot in mind with Morgan, but we'll see how that goes in the game.  |

Ah, the curse of the game issues. Fortunately the only one I experience is the old crash-to-desktop, which only happens if I have too much mods/CC installed, so I'm trying to keep it at a 350MB maximum, plus manic saving. While I was on an Emmett break I played a family for about 5 hours, stopped saving after the first two and, well, you can guess what happened! I'm so glad that *touch wood* I haven't experienced anything more serious than that. And it's no problem, was just making sure you were still out there somewhere  Knowing that an update will arrive at some point is better than knowing nothing! |

Well, I've played out the next chapter and written some of it. I've got the first page done. I may need to save some of the plot for the next chapter if it gets too long, though. A couple of hints: Not in this coming chapter, but later on in the story, you're going to get to read about a vacation and a romantic complication.  At least, I hope you will, if my Sims cooperate with me. Sometimes they like to change the story of their own accord. Also, 'm quickly reaching my limit for the amount of space I can use on my free account on WordPress, so now I'm resizing all my screenshots to be 510 x 319, which is the largest size that fits on my blog and toning down the quality just a tad to be under 100kb per screenshot. I think they still look pretty good, though. I can't stand crappy screenshots. |

Ooo, holiday time! Gotta love it. You can tell which legacy writers bought WA as there were a plethora of holidays ^_^ I loved the Chouettes' trip to France, twas a marvellous read.
Luckily I've still got 90% ish left of my Wordpress space. I don't know how or why, I use loads of pictures and have roughly 60 odd posts full of them. They're not horrific quality either (or at least I don't think they are). Maybe they took pity on me after the photobucket debacle.
What are you going to do when you run out of room?

Probably host them on Photobucket and cross my fingers that it doesn't decide to eat everything on me. *facepalm*
I can't really think of another solution other than purchasing a paid account with WordPress or buying my own domain, but I don't have the money to do either of those things. I don't even have the money to buy food for myself. I'm almost 20 and my parents are still housing and feeding me, how pathetic is that? *sigh*

I think a lot of people use tinypic, it's supposed to be really good. Maybe look into bandwidth policies and stuff, I'd hate for what happened to me to happen to anyone else.
And tis not pathetic at all, I don't know if it's the same in Canada but here there are scores of people who either have had to continue living with their parents or have had to move back. The people who live next door to me at my home-home have the two parents, two of their sons and their wives and two grandchildren in a four-bedroom house. A lot of it is recession/housing market based though. Tbh if I wasn't at uni I'd probably still be living at home, and I probably wouldn't have a job thanks to this loverly shortage.

Yeah same problem here. You're in the UK, right?
I'm just glad I don't live in America. The recession hit hardest there. There's so many people losing their homes and people who can't find work anywhere. Poor Obama, having to try and clean up that mess. *pats Obama comfortingly*

Yeah, the UK. I actually think we're worse off than the USA at the moment as there are so many other problems happening too, thanks to this useless labour government. Hopefully the election on Thursday will change all that though! Well, unless the tories get in. Bah. C'mon Lib Dems!
