Summer of Love

Good morning to each of you,
Some of you may be aware of the GNOMELANDIA project created by our group just three weeks ago. Well, we are now ready for our next neighborhood. The theme? Summer of Love.

The following is a sign-up for families for our town. This time we are making the families first so we can more easily provide housing that meets the community's needs.

This list is a sign-up of families that might have been seen in the '60s as well as a few influential musicians, artists, writers, and political figures you may have heard of...

There will be no duplicate families, so they are on a first-come, first-served basis. Please read the posts before yours carefully to make sure your chosen family is still available. I will try to keep up with the list as much as possible, but I will be out most of the day, so keeping up will be a bit difficult. Please read the posts before yours carefully to make sure your choice is still open. Also, you will see some families have already been taken, as I opened this sign-up first to our Builders' Boulevard members. http://www.buildersboulevard.com

Please sign up below for the family you would most like to create. Please sign up for JUST ONE at this time. If there are more left at the end, I will allow people to take an extra. These families will be featured in the Summer of Love neighborhood, which will be built next week! For this reason, I need sims by Monday night if at all possible. I would like to have the families ready for the builders who will build their home so the fam and lot can be uploaded together, with credit to the sim's creator, of course!

For the celebrities: Please look them up on the internet and try to create them as they looked in the '60s. I realize some hairstyles will present a small issue. Just do your best!

For the other families: Try to match the style suggested by the family description. Lizajbee has helped me compile this list, and she suggested a few styles to try to include if you're stuck:

bell-bottom pants

tie-dyed

vests

dashikis (those kind of long tunics...)

peasant blouses

long, full skirts

head scarves

headbands

The next post will include the sign-up list. Please include the number and family name that you are signing up for.

Peace,

Addict

Families:

(Please make sure to include some children and/or elders in this section, as we don't have any in the well-known figures area).

A big thanks to ICRAW for helping me compile the list of links!

I could do Warhol &/or Nixon &/or Fonda

OMG! Shottie the Mamas and the Papas.
Make your own kind of music...

- Mmyoko out.

Can I have Jane Fonda?

unless porterpam wants her, then I'll do Robert Kennedy.

Do you need so many 'famous faces'? I'd like to do a non-famous person if at all possible ;D

Addict,

Just a quick question. Do you want the Air family to have the surname Air? or can we make up our own names?

Cool, I'm excited. So am I making an 8 person 'family' but only some are actually related?

Ooooh this neighborhood is going to be awesome. I LOVE the 60s. Some of my favorite famous people are on this list.

Too bad I'm terrible at creating Sims...I'll just wait around for the lots to be divided up!

dlyrica wrote:Cool, I'm excited. So am I making an 8 person 'family' but only some are actually related?

I am thinking she means multiple families living in one compound.. so it would be a household of maybe 2-4 families.

This is gonna rock.
My sock. Shamrock. Peacock. Vegetable Stock. Wok. Knock. Clock. Mock.
LOL I'm going all Dr.Seuss on you guys.
