It's been very quiet on our websites for a while now. I am a busy bee, raising a toddler, working full time and also trying to maintain my fansites. I have been working on the new SNW for a long time now and we hope to launch the new site by the end of this year, which isn't that long anymore. I'm trying very hard but until then, you're going to have to be patient.

But here's something for you to put on your desktop! Click on the preview to go to the Sims 2 wallpapers page!

Create and share unique new worlds for your Sims with The Sims™ 3 Create a World Tool – BETA. Step into the shoes of The Sims 3 development team and use the same robust world-building tool they use to create your own Sims world and then share your world online.

Here are some random blooper screenshots from The Sims 3 World Adventures that the development team captured this week. Death has always been a key figure in The Sims games—dark, yet amusing! In Egypt, he watches on as a ghost Sim battles against a mummy and eagerly awaits the end results.
