I found the link again, and pmmed it omglo. I saved it on my computer and if anyone wants it, they can just ask me and I'll send it to them. I haven't tried it yet. I'm so close to just giving up at this point, really. But, I'll give it ago.
It also contains fixes for the two expansion packs Chris made. I won't mention them here. But, yes, the site itself has a lot of adult content, and the pages which talk about the SimPE fix are in the adult section. So, I won't post the link here. But, I'm happy to send it to anyone who asks.

I didn't receive a PM, Smorbie. But it's okay because I used the link in SiMelissa's post to get file. Thanks.

Apologies for doublepost.
I installed the file, made sure the paths were in place and it seems to work, at least as far as I tested aka, finding objects with the Object Workshop, and editing a sim's career and other attributes inside a neighborhood, so I'd say it's a success.

Ahh, there's the rub. No matter what I do I can't get the paths to stay in place.

If paths are the problem I found (no longer can link to you because I don't remember where) all the paths you may need. I saved them as a txt file (I can't upload the txt file per se so I had to zip it in a .7z) so you can check one by one.

On the odd chance that someone other than me hadn't ever seen this before...Vampire Sunblock: http://modthesims.info/d/162163
Adds a magical "sunblock" effect to perfume when applied to vampires, which of course makes perfume actually worth buying (I have literally never bought a single bottle before), makes the perfume turn-on not 100% a "nope" (in fact, it could help the vampire's love interest be specifically attracted to them!), and now I actually want to go play a vampire...

Those peacocks are available for download without registration. Gotta jump through a couple of hoops but I nabbed them. A bit big, though-11.7 mb!
Just push the 'download' button and you'll be taken to the separate page where they're available. If you have NoScript, you have to disable it for the download to begin.
Unzipped they're 24 mgb-but using the Compressorizer brought them down to 14...
Edit: I put them in my game..and nearly half of them were 'white-out' as if missing the mesh to the item. However, 4 of them did show up. Don't know if something happened to the mesh or item, but if you see the 'white peacock' in your objects in game, go through them carefully. They're not all bad. The ones that are displayable are lovely..

Ah, that's good! Perhaps it's other stuff on there that I couldn't download, then? I downloaded the peacocks a few days ago, but when I tried to download some other stuff today I had to post a comment somewhere before the download buttons became visible. But I guess that some stuff is visible without registering/commenting.
Big files but they are lovely! I will only use a few of them, I think, and only if I ever get round to making my "Kew Gardens" inspired lots......

Found this curling iron by rebecah at Affinity Sims. It has an outlet, and can be turned on which makes steam come off it, and you can use it to change your Sims hairstyle. Hubba hubba

So, turns out there really was a super awesome default of the community phone out there that I missed. And of course I found it when I was searching for something completely different! Anyway, community phone as hitching post is over at disemporium's dreamwidth. Picture attached because Photo bucket is lame and hit this journal pretty hard. Luckily links still work and there's pictures in the files.

Oh gummi, that reminds me of a few more functional personal care items I have found.
- A functional blow dryer that will increase the hygiene need for all ages and give a love potion effect to older sims.
- Some functional deodorants that can be used when hygiene is very low to prevent stink fumes and tanking a sim's mood until they can get to a bath or shower.

I don't know if these have been mentioned, but since it's almost Halloween, here are some fantasy/supernatural-themed sets that I overuse in my game and might be useful to you:
Toddler nursery sets for your Plantsims and others: http://www.digitalperversion.net/ga...6642#msg586642: Includes toddler skilling toys!
TS3 Fairy houses as Dollhouses + TSM Castle Dollhouse: http://decatsims2.blogspot.mx/2013/...houses-tsm.html
Dollhouse toy and toybox toy replacements:
http://decatsims2.blogspot.com/2015...replacment.html
http://decatsims2.blogspot.com/2013...oybox-toys.html
Some Harry Potter themed items:

http://decatsims2.blogspot.com/2017...agic-theme.html
Other items:

TS3 Broom and wand default replacements http://decatsims2.blogspot.com/2013...placements.html
TS3 Supernatural Conversions http://decatsims2.blogspot.com/2012...onversions.html
Dragon toy! http://decatsims2.blogspot.com/2012...dragon-toy.html
We also talked about children's toys recently, so here are some not-so-supernaturally themed ones:
https://hat-plays-sims.dreamwidth.o...l?thread=844597
http://decatsims2.blogspot.com/2013...ble-extras.html
Basically, I have way too many of Decat's stuff.
Sorry I got carried away!

Cindy Sim's cave build set. I haven't tried it out in game yet, but it definitely has potential (and there is more cave stuff by other creators available here and here), which may work well with Cindy Sim's set.

I rarely (and I mean like it's never happened) recommend a lot download-but if you like multi-purpose community lots, and swimmable lakes thrown in, you've got to get this lot: https://melthefattie.tumblr.com/pos...ome-people-have
It's just plain breathtaking if you place it on a suitable mountain top, with those horizons, and skies thrown in with clouds-it's just simply beyond beautiful:
The best part? It works wonderfully!
Edit: instead of doing a double post (bad forum behavior), I'll drop this link here-the kid's Lemonade stand has been made into an apple cider stand by Mortia at PBK: Apple Cider Stand. It really does depend on other sets from PBK, so make sure you get those, as well.

Delonariel made default replacements for the Maxis bar bottles, glasses and drinks from TS3 Late Night bar drinks. You can choose from two bottles, two styles of glasses (with choice of swizzle stick) and several different pairs of drink colors to replace the Maxis red/blue. The pictures were on Photobucket, so I upload them here for those who don't have the right browser add-ons. Be sure to pick only ONE of each bottle, glass, and pair of drink colors.
Delonariel warns that the meshes don't quite fit in the sims' hands and mouths the same way that the Maxis tumblers do, so the drinking animations may look a bit odd (glasses clipping into the sims' faces and floating in their hands). I still think they look much better than the default TS2 stuff.
http://delonariel.livejournal.com/4732.html
EDIT to add: Delonariel did eventually make transparent tumbler glasses. Choice of plain tumblers or with plumb-bob swizzle stick. (Yes I know all this stuff is five years old, but I'm slow and it's cool! ) These fit properly in the sims' hands, but the drink recolors in the previous link won't work with them (The replacement "drinks" come out the wrong color and don't fit properly in the glasses).
