We received candy-sweet goodies in the past month,don't forget to check them all out in the tables! This month's theme, I think, could outrun "Maxis Makeover" in entries - Books,Movies&little more....

January Theme - Books, Movies & TV Shows
Something colorful to start January with - anything you read in books,seen in a TV show or on big screen qualifies. You have a favorite TV character,but never had the guts to create by yourself? A dress you saw in your favourite movie,that you never seem to finish for upload? An awesome movie decor or scene from a movie, made into a lot? Let your imagination run free and have fun with it! We just have one rule:
*Please,mention in your posts,what you used from where,otherwise we won't know whether it's related to the theme. Entries with search tag,but no mentions, don't get a sticker. So please, add a line or two saying "I saw this, in this movie" and don't forget to add the search tag - themetv.

The Rules

The usual Creator Guidelines apply to all uploads.
Anything goes, as long as it's somewhat related to the theme - see help above
Only uploads that are uploaded before the end of January will receive an achievement sticker (this includes 31rst) - anything uploaded after that date will not compete. We will look at the date it has been uploaded to the queue, don't worry about waiting times for moderating.
Tag your upload with this tag:themetv. This way it is much easier to keep track of uploads and we know that you are participating in the monthly theme.
Add a brief explanation to your upload(a line or two),so we see exactly where you found,what you're sharing for the theme

If you have a question about something that is not included in the description above - feel free to ask! If you have other ideas on content that would be in the spirit of this theme, don�t hesitate let us know

All currently in the queue,will be added once approved,so don't forget to stop by if we somehow miss you!

(Unless I can stretch the truth and say I got the idea for the LACK pink cars from a Barbie movie. )

I'm putting together a broadcast network affiliate lot (which I'll upload eventually regardless of whether it fits with this contest or not), and while it's absolutely TV-themed, it's not one that's ever actually been on TV!

The characters (like the smurfs) have been seen. But not the actual cupcakes.
But I'll make them anyway.

Haven't you read the books? I've got the complete original series (as well as the PC games LOL!)
And, there was a ND (with the Hardy Boys) TV show back in the 80's. So - YES!!!
I love Nancy... just sayin'

I've already got her and the gang in my game - but, I can't wait to see how you make her/them.

Please ~ support my TS2 habit! Shop at my Etsy shops:

CatherinesJewelry ~ Artisan Jewelry
Catherine's MOUSE ~ Up/Recycled Jewelry
and Vintage Stuffeths

Time flies like an arrow ~ fruit flies like a banana
Ah, well... there is that
So, do you know the difference between roast beef and pea soup?

I have read a good number of the books. It was a long time ago, but I did. I asked about game characters because I'm more readily familiar with them (and there's a dress in Movie Stuff that's begging to be used for Charlotte from Ghost of Thornton Hall).

I've already been working on recreating 221B Baker Street from BBC's Sherlock in the Sims 2, just for my own use. If it's any good I'll upload it for this theme. Looking forward to seeing what comes out of this month from others

Heheh...I had it in a folder but I put it in the wrong one...sweatdrop Hopefully it'll go through the files soon enough for them to say it needs fixed so it can qualify!
