heaven_sent, what is this siding you speak of that you can change the edge color? I have Ambitions and I still could not recolor it so I had to use the 3 patterns. It's too late for me to change my entry now as I'm at work and the round will be closed before I get home but it'd be nice to know for the future.  Edit: Oh, Lifeslover gave us another day while I was typing but I still couldn't change it anyway on account of that save game throwing up on me. |

HS 8 18 - Okay, I deleted my new post (was#370) and revised my initial entry post for this round (#358). Lifeslover - Sorry your feeling unwell. Hope you feel better soon. Wicked Blue - I'm sorry to hear you lost the house --it was gorgeous! Jewaukeela - Thanks for your nice comment. Unfortunately, I won't be uploading any houses from this contest as they're from floor plans made by someone else rather than my own original creations. |

I'm sorry you're feeling so ill today Lifeslover. I haven't posted my entry yet btw. I was just about to rush and post it. I'll go ahead and post tomorrow then since I can. (Or later tonight.) |

Wickedblue - I used an Ambitions siding that has 3 recolor channels. The first recolors the actual siding, the second recolors the shading between each siding, and the third recolors the edges. |

I do not remember seeing one like that in the catalog. Guess I'll just have to look harder.

It may be under the sets tab. There is a right edge wall, left edge wall, and center wall. |

Thanks everybody! I found it. Too late for this house but also, there's a lot of walls under sets and miscellaneous that I never knew I had!  I should pay more attention.

Cloudburst - the front of your house looks amazing! I think it has tremendous curb appeal. Good job! Good luck to every one in round 3. I'm traveling the next few days and don't know if I'll be able to get online much. So if you don't see a floor plan from me for the next round until Monday that's why. Of course, I'll check in if I can. As we're going back in time I'm wondering what the next round will be-- Regency?, Gothic? Rococco? Medieval? Biblical times? Prehistoric? Haha. Whatever, I'm sure it will be interesting |

Round Three is officially closed. I'll be finishing getting everything together within the next few hours and then judges will be able to start scoring. I'll post Round 4 in a little while. Thank you for all of your patience. |

Yes, I'm feeling better, although still under the weather. I'm well enough, though, to be able to work on the contest. I'll post round 4 soon, when I get an idea for the bonus category. Thank you to everybody for all of the well-wishes. Gives me fuzzies in my stomach. ^_^ |

Oh no, did I miss the dead line. I thought I got it in just under the wire. Did I really miss it or did you just close early because you assumed that nobody could be as late as I was. |

Well, there wasn't any set deadline for the extension. I just said I'd give an extra day. But since I usually close the contest around noon, and actually gave an hour or so more than that, I figured everybody had gotten their entry's in that were going to. I'll accept your entry, but I can't do it again, since it's not fair to the contestants who made the deadline. |

I wanted to step in and say that the entries are really, really good this round. I won't be able to do my part of the judging until Monday. I will be gone Friday, Sat. and Sun. and will not get back until at least midnight Sun. night. My job requires me to stay overnight and there's no computer access there. I don't really have time today because I want to spend it with the little one and finish up some last minute laundry and cleaning. I'm really sorry and hope you all are patient and understanding.

Thanks LifesLover It's funny, I thought the timer said the deadline was noon my time. But, that seem off because you should be ahead of me. Sorry for any inconvenience. |

That's okay, fragglerocks. I'm busy right now trying to get a job anyway, and heaven_sent is apparently having issues with her computer, so for now, judging's on hold. And I still need to post Round 4... just as soon as I figure out a bonus category! Well, the timer wasn't updated to show the new extension, aUserName. If anything, it would have been showing the time since that date. |

I meant that I had looked at the timer before the original due date and I thought that the hour count matched my time. Anyway thanks for your leniency. I can't say I'm thrilled with my house this round, but I'm glad I can participate. |

Ah. Perhaps it did, if you live on the east coast. It's fine: I hate not letting people in because of difficulties. I just won't be able to do it again. |

This thread has been quiet for a minute. I had some free time so came to see if the new round is posted. Since I am here I might as well share a bit of good news; I got the house back. I still can't quite put my finger on why I couldn't load that save game before but it loaded just fine today so I have now put it in the library. I'll most likely share it on my blog once it's judged. If anyone is interested. Lifeslover, if you're really stuck on a bonus category for this round, may I suggest you reuse the pattern or color idea from the first two rounds? I can't speak for everyone here but I wouldn't mind if you did that. No pressure. I'm just anxious to get started. :D |

Yeah, you're right, it's been too long, I'll put up Round Four. I was going to save this bonus category for the fifth round, but since I've taken so long to come up with one for this round, I'll just figure out something for the fifth. |

 An old world feel for the new modern era. Can you create, from either floor plans or an existing home, the Tudor architectural style? Bonus Category
Tudors come from the very small to the very large. Can you fit a Tudor into a 30x30 space with enough landscaping around to make sure it doesn't feel small? Try your hand and see. Deadline: Tuesday, October 26th at 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Timer Plans

Woohoo! I'm ready to get started. Here's my plan: http://www.theplancollection.com/ho...home-plan-16635 One stupid question: how do we show that it's on a 30x30? Edit: Link changed. I didn't realize I pasted the wrong one. Oopsies. |

I trust the contestants enough to tell me if it's on a 30x30. Also, I've built with enough 30x30s to be able to tell overhead, so long as they show it all in the overhead. |
