Picked Upload!
This is a picked upload! It showcases some of the best talent and creativity available on MTS and in the community.
By long-ago request of one HeartDeco, I bring you 20 new colors of Maxis's rustic wood-shingle siding. As requested, these are in the same 20-color palette that I've used to recolor Maxis wood floors and stairs and fences and columns and such, so they will coordinate with those pieces if you have them. (And if you don't have them and you decide you want them, you can find all that I've made so far on my profile.) However, they retain their original rustic feel, so the color of course varies across the wall tile. Frankly, I always forget about this wall, even though it is a rather nice texture that looks very nice in-game. Maybe now I'll remember that it's there.
Anyway, here be the colors, each image culled from close-up in-game pictures:
Next, here be a pic of one of the colors "in action" on a li'l house, which also shows a bit of the matching stair, column, fence, and wood floor recolors that you can find on my profile if you want 'em:
(Similar pics of five of the other colors are attached below.)
These files have been compressed to be as small in size as possible, and they are also clearly named so that you can discard the colors you don't want. I've also included a Collection file, and I popped the Maxis wall into the collection, too, just so you have them all together.
I hope you might find these useful. And, to HeartDeco: Sorry it took me so long. I was out of the creating mood for a while, and then I was being horribly lazy about preparing stuff for upload.

Me, in a Nutshell
Nowadays, I mostly upload stuff to my Simblr, simply because I'm lazy. You can find me here: http://dramallamadingdang.tumblr.com You can also find some downloads that aren't here on my LJ, I don't upload stuff there anymore, but there is some older stuff there.
