Just a lil note

NOLA is a redesign of Twinbrook. I redecorated many rabbit holes and tweaked several venues, added lots and genreally did some mucking about to give it the feel of New Orleans. I was helped along by some fantastic Simmers. So i thank the simmers who helped from my Shotgun Home Challenge( http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/328461.page and the simmers from the Friendly Simmers chat thread http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/304822.page who helped me along and encouraged me and donated simselves and shared patterns to the town. I will try to note the houses from the challenge when i can but i do get a lil confused and forgetful so right now..Thank you all credit to all of you!

Getting to know the Neighborhood

Some major renovation has taken place to many of the community area of Nola. I had the lovely Raven Vintage take a walkabout for me and snaps some pics.

First stop was the new Joy Theater a wonderful homage to the era of the silver sim screen. Simwood South launches from it's lobby!

This will be the story of what goes on in my Nola town, It is still being built, Many of the houses used are from my contest thread on the Sims3 website.
The front page has a list of links to the houses.
My hope is to update this blog with how i have used these houses and how i have reworked Twinbrook into a lovely lil sim town that reminds me of my hometown, where ever possible.
