Pictures of Others' Houses in Your Game
Have you downloaded a House made by another Creator? Changed the floor plan? Added some funky stair work? played it across generations and had suitable renovations? Redone that fugly Livingroom?!Here is the place to show your work!

Well I never had to do anything to this work of art, it is perfection in itself.
It is a community lot by Loverat her absolutely phantasmagorical Steam Punk Emphorium: you have to see it to believe it
okay I did put a mood lifting hack in it....so my sims could stay for longer....
Oh! and I had to remove the perimeter wall, because of my stone age computer.

This is one of the things I do most in the game, re-model houses lol!
I re-modeled Lacrisa's Villa Kunterbunt to suit an elderly couple, and turned the former upstairs nursery into "Grandma's sewing room."

I revive the thread because the topic has come up in the general section and I believe it is proper to honor the OP for thinking about it first, instead of starting a new thread. Taking the full blame here.
I treated two of my Riverblossom Hill sims with a new home for christmas, grabbing xmathyx´s Moroccan Villa. The lot went to a college neighborhood, so my sims got it for real cheap. Since they are students, the little gymn had to go in favour of a study/ritual room, the nursery is now a wellness room and I made a few changes to the ground level (minus the fence around the pool, plus a bar and bubble blower). The floorplan was left as it was. I plan to place the villa into the main neighborhood after graduation and pretend it is the same my couple lived in during their YA lifestage.

The Civic Courthouse by dacycko I downloaded when I had a court hearing to proceed. I´m quite fond of that, but this time I wanted to put the result on my blog and I felt I had to use something more presentable than my personal use public lots. It´s a great lot, even after Gavin Newson systematically ruined all the flowers in the backyard... they´ve grown back by now.
I added some snack vending machines and a few toilets, otherwise the lot was untouched.
Cassandra Goth Vs. Nathan Gavigan:
As you can see I placed a garbage chute where none belongs (or even believeably could - all the garbage would appear in the entrance hall!). This is one of the little things why I was anxious to show the lot in place before. Creators put much love into their work and might not like seeing them modified in weird ways.
The chute also serves the function to draw sims, who leave the main room for toilet/snack runs back into where the action takes place.
This was priceless: The garden club lady autonomously seated herself in the judge´s chair. So she got the role.
Another face to remember - the attorney:
The jurors were appointed same as the judge: whoever claimed the seats first, was in. There were mostly townies, but also Julien Cooke, a good friend of the defendant.
Here we see Nathan comfort his little son after hearing the sentence (actually after Nathan and Cassandra shoved each other violently).
During a snack break the jurors had a row:
And finally Gavin´s rampage across the flowerbeds. We´ll have to cut him some slack, it wasn´t easy for the boy, seeing that his employer´s daughter was put against one of his best friends.

Third and final one:
Armscor Warehouse by @Zarathustra
The warehouse has become the new home for nine tramps. They are the FamilyBin families and had to prove themselves to the people of Pleasantview to aquire citizenship. Some succeeded, but those that failed had to move on. They now are on their way to Riverside (attached to PV as a shopping district). Halfway between the two towns the tramps found this abandoned warehouse and decided to spend the holiday season here.
I didn´t change much, really, only rearranged the swag and seating and added some furniture. The carpets represent sleeping blankets to be used with the "sleep on the floor" hack and will later get upgraded with invisible couchs or even invisible beds.
The probably best thing about this lot is that it is ready for play and even offers a hidden ressource system if one wants to jump on that train. I ruled that my sims could only use what they found here, so the only food option for now is cereal (and coffee). Trust Julien Cooke to make the muesli a different flavour every day (thanks to custom food) with his cuisine magic.
But despite having toilets available, old habits die hard... so some shrubs for an important business were added and placed in the vicinity of the main living area. Pictured is Jessica Picaso, the tramps´ leader.
Not only found the tramps an intact car (minus fuel, however), there are several junk cars waiting to be repaired! Every car repair consumes one of the tool piles that lay scattered across the lot. There is a little excess of tools, even. Two tool piles must never be consumed, because they are needed to power the robot crafting benches.
Matthew Picaso and Isaiah Gavigan are more artistically inclined. They gathered all the canvas upstairs.
On unit of canvas is required for every painting (and will get sold with the painting just like the tool piles with the cars).
Trent Traveller in this campaign is obsessed with the riddle of an asteroid core. It is an important story device, so the other sims do not mind that he contributes little to their money making schemes and focusses on the greater picture instead.
Notice the end table: Every day the sims need to heat their home with one unit of wood (or an end table or chair). One unit of wood is also consumed if the sims desire to grill the occasional stray critter.
Another shot of Trent and his daughter bonding.
Jessica is not so fortunate with hers. The tramp is so used to hardship, that the idea of a child needing to fill it´s motive bars before it can get taught anything never entered her mind.
The toddler bed is an oddity. A pet bed would be more logical, but I feel these deplete bladder too quickly, so I assume the Picasos have cobbled together the bed from materials lying around.

These are low income homes. In the background are two houses by joandsarah77 which are called "Council housing".
The Niblick family lives in the pink house.
The husband is a Knowledge sim and the wife is Romance/Grilled Cheese. The husband only has 2 Active points and the wife only 1. She loves to sit on the couch.
Furniture was downloaded from Phaenoh. Small house models living room set.
The husband was abducted by aliens last time I played their household.

These are shot of Moo's Mews tiny community lots that I redecorated. ( http://www.modthesims.info/browse.p...&gs=1&f=38&gs=1 ) They aren't actually homes but didn't see a place to post other's c-lots. I also felt it was appropriate to keep the names she gave them.

These should be the last of Moos Mews that I use. The swimming pool was too small for the crowds that show up. I still have one lot from her empty template and a few recycled lots using her bowling alley.

As a request @Gummilutt built this structure plus a mirror image one for me using Mootilda's Lot Adjuster. It is a 2 story, with 3 bedrooms on a 1x1 lot. For those who don't use these tiny lots, you can see how much space they can actually have. This house fills up almost all available building tiles but there are still a few in front for some landscaping and a few in back to maybe grow a few garden plants or add small objects. A telescope will just fit in the back too. Children, or even adults, can use the street to play in for water balloon fights and kicky sack. I've even added a wedding arch and had a decent size wedding in the street, dancing and all. The housing is much cheaper, this particular one is about $25,000. Thank you so much, Gummilutt! I've built quite a few houses, including some vacation homes using both shells.
On the right side of house where the walls seem to connect to the next lot, I placed an arch which can be used to access the trash bin, keeping it away from the front of the house. Can also be used to access space in back with the trash bin placed behind the house.
The bathroom is the All In One converted from S3 for S2. It is quite the space saver in small lots. It requires only 2 tiles. I use an arch instead of a door for mine.

This is a make over of @ScaryRob's TS3 House #03, made for Sims 2. I've used his several times with no problems and the decor is great. I did a few make overs so my sims can have a few different choices. Here is the link to his house http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=546528

Wow, I can't believe you were able to squeeze a kitchen, dining nook and living room into that tiny first floor interior, along with the spiral stairs. I'm seriously impressed. Seriously.
Of course, you will presumably still add a bathroom upstairs, right? I kept it downstairs in my version because I tried to stay true to the original TS3 Lot.
I think I might just add an optional second file to my upload with a floorplan similar to this.
I'm curious about that second enclosure on the outside wall. The first is obviously for the trashcan, like in my version, but what's the second one for?
Also, I take you you don't like my earth colors? That's cool, I like it.

In the small lots I most often use the TS3 converted All-In-One bathroom, unless a tub is needed for toddlers. I did use the house exactly as you built and decorated, then I used the same house and remodeled it 3 more times. So I have 4 of that same house in my hood. The 2nd inclosure has a compost bin, I thought it was nice to keep it hidden along with the trash. I also changed the windows because I only have the red in them, the recolors didn't work. I like the way you did the windows though.
EDIT: Skip the windows part, I keep mixing up the #3 and #4 houses.

What a nice thread - I know it's always a big thrill for me when I see people using stuff I've made. I'd be charmed if those were my houses.

@Maxon, I agree with you! It is a major thrill to see that people actually play with my houses and it's especially fun to see how they redecorate to their own taste. @charmful, thank you so much for sharing these. I loved reading them again!

Hopefully my picture taking efforts will improve over time. As you can see, I missed a wall tile on the upper deck. Didn't notice until I was posting. This makeover was for Julian Cooke. Being a bachelor, at the time, it was spacious, simple with a little fun all in one. This is the one with the window change because my ergo windows are red. I especially liked the triangle, but no recolors took on that one.
Julian really enjoyed his garden area, eventually he will plant vegies, but does have fruit trees.
The first floor is mainly black and white which seemed to fit in this house, there is a bit of color on one kitchen wall.
The bedroom is bright and colorful, a cozy reading area in the corner and while reading in bed, Julian keeps a box of crackers and
bottle for when he just can't put his book down to go cook.
His 'bathroom' is in a corner by the stairs. It wasn't closed in at the time since he lived alone and I wasn't sure how I wanted to
add a room for it. One of the things I like about this bathroom on small or community lots, is no room full of people with bubble
images of a big red X on a sims face. They don't seem to take notice at all.
I didn't have a sim in mind when decoration this house. What was funny, is the pizza chef statue on the far end table made Julian
laugh and it's the most viewed item in this house. He would actually go upstairs just to check it out if he wasn't busy.
