Most of you are probably aware of the planetary improvements graphics mod I have been working on at TBSModder.com. Having completed a first pass at all of the major building lines and a few extras, I have zipped them up for others to try out.

It is a graphics-only mod that will not interfere with your ability to play in the Metaverse. If you're interested, go to my post about it in the TBSModder forum or just go straight to the download if you've been waiting to try it out.

If you use it, please give me some feedback on what you would like to see next, or how to improve the buildings I've made so far.

G'day.
Just joined with my character Cruella.
Will set up my first game probably tomorrow, after I have had a look at any tips at your web site.

Just finished a game for the empire, 19500 in I think 6 yrs. Not much better than my Leaque games? Must be the style I play.

Welcome Embird, great to have another Aussie in the fold! There are plenty of tips and tricks at our site.

I am in trouble! I forgot my wifes BDay. Any suggestions for an EVILLL Brother on sucking up would be much appreicated.  

Welcome Cruella!



I've updated your permissions at the empire forum. Come by and visit the private empire section.

I can't think of anything beyond red roses, chocolates and a diamond or two. That and cooking her a nice dinner, even if you can't do it very well. The effort seems to mean more than the final result. Maybe clean the house for her. That sort of thing.

Clean House? I think I will get her a diamond(like she needs anymore) it seems easier. As for red roses, we only have 1 pink rose left and she would notice if I picked it   But thank you for suggestions, they may be helpful, not only for me but others as well.

Is this officially the longest thread on the forums? If not, lets go for it!

As for the forgotten birthday...lots of brown nosing...lots

PlayJeff, tsk tsk!

Time and distance.

Your wife will probably never forget a single thing that upsets her over the course of her life, but over time she will eventually lose most of the bitterness.

Distance, as in getting away from the scene of your blunder, will also help. Take a long weekend away somewhere very soon. Make sure it's somewhere she will think is cool, even if you are afraid it will involve some kind of shopping excursion. Sometimes just letting her spend money can be better than you trying to spend money on her.

Don't, however, try to atone by taking on any chores that may currently be 'hers'. This will gain you no points - at all - and you may end up doing it permanently if you do a good job, or losing even more points if you do it imperfectly.

Good luck!

y'know...I think i'm happy i'm not married; of course, being in college, having fun isn't really an issue right now, and to top it all off I don't have anyone giving me The Look if I decide to play DA for a couple of hours...well except maybe my profs when I turn in B or C level work or nothing at all...(i'm sposed to be the "smart" one haha)

Does your wife have a hobby or interest...other than you ?  
If so , buy her something she needs or wants for that hobby.
You can claim that you ordered it for her birthday, but it was not available until now.
She may not believe you, but it will give her something to latch onto when she forgives you.

You guys are great for knowledge. The worst thing I did was wake her up a 2:30 AM and said happy birthday pretending that I never forgot and got my days mixed up   She gets to pick out her diamond tonight   Guess there will be no beer this weekend.

Ahhhh No beer!!! I will have a vodka for you my evil friend!!
