I don´t know how many nice wooden floors I have in my game right now thanks to you. But I´ve said it before and I´ll say it again: You can simply never have enough of them! Thank you very much for sharing these goodies with us!

I agree with dieKristina! I primarily use wood floors, because I love 'em! Thanks iCad!

I never get tired of your recolours. We all benefit from your obsession.
Thanks to you, I've got wood.

Wait, that came out all wrong...

I <3 that you have a picture with the names and the color, so that it's easy to sort out which to keep and which not. With this large a sample-size, it's most appreciated =) And, gorgeous! I never liked maxis wooden floors much, this'll do wonders for my houses =)

I'm real choosy about what to download these days, trying to avoid overloading my buy/build catalogue. So far I've managed to resist most of your sets. But goshdarnit, I can resist no longer! These are too gorgeous to pass up. Which of course means the matching walls and windows will be joining them, at the very least. So thank you, iCad, for messing up my catalogue and prettying up my game. .

Thanks for the comments, everyone. I love you all. :lovestruc Some replies:

dieKristina: I am a total wood flooring junkie, both in Simming and in real life. (There is no more carpet in our house anymore, YAY! It's all wood-with-area-rugs or tile. ) So, I agree that you can never have enough. But now I think I've made enough. I think. Because I'm still warily eyeing some of the game's parquets, but so far I don't use them enough to warrant the effort of recoloring them. But you never know. Maybe there WILL be a Part Troi, just of parquets.

Neder: *giggles madly* Hey, at my advanced age, if I can give a guy wood, I'm a happy girl. No, seriously, I'll consider it a fair trade. I've got a number of your mods which have made my game a lot happier/more logical, so...yeah. I'll do the wood, you do the mods.

gummilutt: Pictures are always helpful, I think, especially with big sets. What I should have done was to put a pic with each download, but then I try to keep download file sizes down where I can because I figure that every bit helps when it comes to not overtaxing MTS's servers. So...Yeah, that's the trade-off. But at the very least, I put pics on the posts.

fanseelamb: I'm sorry I've corrupted you. Well, OK, I'm not. I'm evil that way. But in all seriousness, I'm honored that a choosy downloader thinks my stuff worthy. But you're right: Some of these floors are just pretty. I mean, not my versions, necessarily. I mean the Maxis floors themselves. That is, their underlying textures are very pretty. It's just that they tend to get drowned in nasty and unrealistic colors. Strip them of that, though, and you have some VERY pretty stuff. Much of the Build Mode stuff is that way, I've found. Hence, my "life's work," as pathetic as that is.

I have too many wood floors, but I have to have these - they are so nice! Thanks! =D

Remember, being paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not after you.

I cannot seem to be able to open these. I've tried opening and saving other MTS files recently and they all automatically open with media player, it didn't used to do that. I can't save the files from MTS anymore, does anyone know what I should do?

I don't understand why (or how) a rar file would open with media player. :\ rar is a data compression utility, like ZIP, only...better, IMO. To open rar files you need to use something like WinRAR or 7-zip. The latter is free. Google it, and you'll find it.

I'm mostly found on (and mostly upload to) Tumblr these days because, alas, there are only 24 hours in a day.

"You got planked" was my favorites maxis wood floor EVER! but I was a bit disappointed that we only got 3 colours with AL. I'm so glad you made these recolors for that floor, and you made me enjoy maxis wood floors again
