Well, Rad suggested I give a look over at Valley Sun Sims and I must say I'm absolutely astounded by the creative community here! (Thanks so much for the invite Rad!)
I probably read and comment religiously on quite a few of your Sim blogs, but to the rest of the simmers who I haven't found yet: Hello! And: which story of yours should I read first?
As for introduction pleasantries, Tipix is my preferred nom de plume and I write the very (very very) seldom updated (oops) Chouette Legacy. I've been addicted to The Sims franchise since its release with The Sims 1 (I loved Makin' Magic, don't you miss the little dragons?), and have been playing my way through every expansion and stuff pack since then. Quite Shamelessly. Sims 3, despite its glitches, has definitely been my favourite for the story possibilities it offers.
Now I'm off to raid the topic boards for new stories :D Happy Simming!

Hello, tipix, and welcome! ;D Well, let's all take a moment to applaud Rad into finding us a new member... My stories are (there's quite a few now): The Gang, Shadow, Alternate Universe, Condemned, and Christine's Story (which I believe the link to that is old and I need to update it). The Gang and Shadow are made using TS3 while the others are TS2 pose box specialized. I'm not sure which one you should read first... The Gang has been up there the longest... The Shadow only has one more chapter to go...everyone seems to enjoy AU... Condemned is a Sims challenge... Christine's Story is on PowerPoint so not alot of people view it. [shrug] Take a pick. I'll be sure to pop by a read your story as well.

Yay hi! I just wanted to say that I appreciate you sticking with my blog even though I've gone all text and haven't updated 10 in a while. Farmer Brown is coming along, and once it's done I'll go back to Seth and 10. Just needed a bit of a break from Seth. Huge thanks to Rad for inviting you. I hope you like it here. OMG, I loved Makin' Magic too! My story album showing it off is still on my Sims 1 SimPage, lol. I'd look it up if I wasn't at work. (Shhh.) Sims 3 certainly does have a lot of story possibilities. One day I'll find my disks and reinstall, and who knows - a year or two from now I might go back to pics and Sims. Especially if a new EP gives me story ideas. You'll find plenty of good Sims 2 and Sims 3 stuff here to read - who knows, maybe even some Sims 1. Yay I'm glad you're here! *happy dance*

Hi Tipix! Welcome! Glad to have you here with us! I'm still stuck on Sims 2 for the moment, but I'm looking forward to trying out Sims 3 sometime soon - you guys make it sound great!

Stacy- You're welcome, I love me some Seth. I think you update more often than I do, to be honest. Besides, I enjoy being able to read about the same characters over a long length of time without worrying about falling behind. Seth's stories are like comfort food in that way, always around when I need them! Until then I'm awaiting Farmer Brown, holding for applause. Laura- Thanks so much! I miss Sims 2 at times, but after getting used to the game Sims 3 really does hold some great potential. Of course with a project like you're running over at Lakeside Heights, I can't imagine wanting to change and start all over again!

Hi Tipix! *waves excitedly* You inadvertantly reminded me that I haven't finished reading chapter 60. I know it was very wrong of me to forget.

Hi Tipix! Nice to meet you I don't have any stories for you to read yet, I'm just beginning - but an avid reader like yourself, and there's plenty of stories to read from the story forum. And hey! you should add your story link there too - that way I'll remember to read it.

Thank you all for the warm welcomes! (& Thanks again Rad, I have my reading cut out for me for quite some time now!) Pink- I guess 60 was a bit long for one sitting. I just wanted to get my blog caught up to my game! Kiri- Pink is just flattering me, the Chouettes definitely aren't one of the best. You can give them a read over on tipix7.wordpress.com/ though, if you'd like.

All Right, another Canadian! Welcome Tipix, I use sims 2 in my storytelling fun, maybe someday I will get Sims 3, who knows?

Well I've only recently received my citizenship, but Canadian enough! I hope you do give Sims 3 a try, it's definitely blended some of my favourite things about Sims 1 and Sims 2. Although I rather miss Sims 2's table interactions (so cute!) and weather.

YAY!!!! Tipix, it's about time you got here! :-D
The Chouette legacy is one of the best woven legacy stories out there. The characters are well developed, and the home is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. Most of all, the family itself has a culture and flavor all its own. All thumbs up!
