Nice job, zook But I thought your uploas from now on were going to have that logo thing and the white backgroud? The lamp looks great!

EDIT: Oh sorry didn't see the last sentence. Here's your feedback :

I think it might be better when your thumbnail image has a picture of the in-game pik like your other thumbnail piks because it may get you more views, therefore more downloads, comments, and thanyous When you got just a picture...of...well...not what the object looks like in-game...people might not be so interested. I mean, I guess that's why the site has thumbnails, so people see what the download looks like when they click on the download name. That's just my opinion It's very creative though!

I can't decide on them, and I think I like these the best because they are different, and not so main stream Thanks for the feedback

I love this.... I swear my grandparents have two of these exact lamps in their house...I have to get it just for that reason!!
As for the tumbnails, I agree with pacotacoplayer - the thumbnails with actual pictures would prolly get you more views and downloads. I personally like the thumbnail you used, that's what got MY attention, just because it was so different. Hah, I guess thats kind of a swing vote eh??
I'd rather take the butcher's word for it....

It's perfectly ugly! Thanks! lol

Oh, and for the record - the drawing-type thumbnail pic is what drew my attention... I wouldn't have likely looked otherwise.

I think they are pretty also and will add a nice touch to our homes. And i'm thinkinh of recoloring them also, just had an inspiration lol

Btw the thumbnails are very beautiful and clever ;-) Many times i have thought on trying to keep a theme or a specific border to my thumbnails e.t.c but i keep changing lol It's a nice way for people to instantly recongise who the creator is. To tell you the truth sometimes i get drag by the picture itself to the upload page before even looking who the creator is so i think it;s clever :-P

Sick! I love it.

Believe it or not, my grandma actually had overly ornate lamps that were even worse than these... they were enormous porcelain trophy shaped vase things with arms on the sides and frilly flowers sculpted on and just... ugh. Gloriously awful.

On a side note, the detailing you did with the claw feet is amazing... just thought you should know.

Well, I personally like the 'Gaudy Seventies' stuff so I'll be glad to have this in my collection, Zookini! The more period pieces and era objects I can get, the better!
Thanks so much

Nice!
I like the thumbnails...they're nifty and VERY original I think it sets your work aside from other creators. Kinda like when you see Numenor or Nengi's thumbnails...you can just tell by seeing the picture who created it. Everyone has their own style and I am down with yours!

Yes agreeing with Abstract, I love the detail in this one and can't wait to put in my elder homes. Plus I have some tacky furniture that this will be perfect with.

I really liked your thumnail for this upload. When I saw it, I had to click on the link.

This lamp is so ugly and tacky!! Good job!! This will be perfect for my sims with limited means. We need more tacky things for our sims....their lives can't all be glamorous!!!

Why does everyone say the lamp is UGLY???? The base is soooo beautiful! The lampshade part is okay! Thanks!
