Yes, you've read right. I've extracted every icon that is used by the game and all expansion packs. About 900 icons are included in this 7MB zip.

Big zip full of various careers I created and use in my game. Probably half of them are useless to anyone but me, but I'll leave it to you to sort them out. careers.zip

I have made the tutorial neighborhood 100% playable! It is available at MoreAwesomeThanYou.com in the Podium forum. My userame there is SaraMK and the thread in the Podium is called "So, hey, is anyone interested in the tutorial neighborhood?" The thread also has a tutorial for how to do this yourself!

Clean up the default templates. Stop the game from dumping a boatload of ugly townies into your game each time you attach a Downtown, University, or Blue Water Village. Tutorial here: http://www.oocities.org/saramkirk/nhoods/nhoods.html. You can download ready-made clean templates at MoreAwesomeThanYou.com from the Peasantry forum. My username there is SaraMK and the thread in Peasantry is called "Empty Templates. UPDATED: Cleaned up Templates."

Merge the three Maxis neighborhoods!

Attach Veronaville and Strangetown as Downtowns (or Suburbs if you don't have NL but do have OFB) to Pleasantview. SimPE is needed, but it should be easy for most people to follow the tutorial. It is available at MoreAwesomeThanYou.com in the Peasantry forum. My username there is SaraMK and the thread in Peasantry is called "TUTORIAL: Merging the Maxis neighborhoods." You can also access more information and download locations here: http://www.oocities.org/saramkirk/psv.html

Some various stuff is available at MTS2. My username there is SaraMKirk and you can view my profile at http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=10426.
