How to Upload and Share a File Via Dropbox

[strangecowplant]

so often now i see someone uploading their very first piece of cc like a recolour or tattoo and they have a patreon already

its like theres this idea that you HAVE to have a patreon and a preview style and link ur socials and make yourself into a Brand™ now right from the get go instead of just??? enjoying the game?? being part of the community?? making cc because you wanted it and maybe someone else would like it too??

so many paywall creators literally arent active in the community for anything but posting more cc to get that dosh pls dont use them as a template, enjoy the game and make cc for yourself dont make yourself a faceless brand there enough of that shit in and out of this community as is

I think you can save scrivener files to a cloud service like Dropbox, which is free for up to 2Gb of storage and works on basically any platform. Dropbox has features like file recovery, version history, integrated cloud content (which allows you to edit some types of files from within Dropbox), and backup services. I can’t recommend it enough.

Also, it has a feature if you install it on your computer where it can act like a normal folder on your hard drive, but everything within the folder is stored in the Dropbox cloud. If you open a file from that folder, it’ll boot as if it was always on your computer. Very useful for Scrivener, which afaik does not have a cloud backup service.

TLDR use Dropbox.

writer survey question time:

inspired by seeing screencaps where the software is offering (terrible) style advice because I haven't used a software that has a grammar checker for my stories in like a decade

if you use multiple applications, pick the one you use most often.

Smallsimmer Oscar Isaac Download

I think the last time I uploaded a sim was around 2016 actually! Anyways he's just sitting in my sim bin thought maybe someone else could get some use from him. I made him around late 2022, he's definitely not perfect nor am I claiming he is but I think he turned out the best out of all of the celebrity sims I made.

info:

He's very slider heavy, I don't want to break a tou by uploading my sliders but I am going to link to here

Download includes .sim file and custom skin that I made for him.

You can find the hair I used for him here (zac) other than the hair he should be packed in base game clothing!

Skin is probably far from perfect, I made it around 2 years ago for fun and personal use, never planned on sharing it so take that as you will.

Same body from this skin I uploaded here

Didn't include the contacts I used because I use the heterochromia contact thing so they would most likely not work in your game anyway! Any brown contacts would work the same though I would assume.

Images are unedited! What you see is what you get.

Skin is 2k in texture size and for YA males only

For the sims 3!!!

TOU: Also haven't uploaded a sim in awhile so uh I obviously can't stop you from tweaking the hell out of him but I can kindly ask for some credit if you end up using him please and thank you. Same if you use the skin in another skin blend I'd prefer to not have another June skin incident on my hands 😅

Important. PLEASE READ!!

For those of you who may not know, which I suspect is probably most of you, I had an interaction with a pro/comship blog (@toh-proship-positivity) about three weeks ago that ended in them accusing a fellow artist, a-magpie-in-gravesfield, of extremely heinous things. I originally was not going to respond to them simply because I didn't want to be bothered with such drama during the holidays. Still, these claims irritated me because, even just from my conversations with this blog and witnessing their behavior firsthand, I knew their claims were likely untrue or, at the very least, exaggerations. I am happy to announce that my intuition was correct and that the claims made about Magpie WERE NOT TRUE.

Several people approached me regarding this, and I also sought a few individuals out myself to look for answers. They provided ample proof, including screenshots, receipts, and conversations between the accuser and the accused, that prove without a shadow of a doubt in my mind that Magpie is innocent of all claims levied against him.

I, along with the help of a few others, gathered as much information as I could find, organized it, and created a master list of evidence to combat every accusation. I am going to share the folder that holds the drama overview as well as every document that was used as an external link. Here are the links to the folder and overview, respectively.

This folder with all related documents will also be downloadable as a zip file on Dropbox to anyone who wishes to have a copy for themself. DM me asking for the download link, and I will provide it to you.

This is not meant to be an attack on the person who levied the claims against Magpie, and this is NOT a call to harassment. This needs to be put out into the open so that this drama inside the Wittebane community can cease.

Here is a direct message from Magpie regarding the situation:

"I just wanted to clarify that I had no hand in making the document itself. I was approached by multiple people asking for my side of the evidence / answering questions about the timeline of things / etc. I myself never look at Horse's posts because I don't want to give any of my time to things like this (and tbh I thought they would have stopped by now). Please don't message me about this. This has been going on for over a year now, and I don't want to focus on negativity. I have already provided a lot of information to the people who made this doc. I also DO NOT condone any kind of harassment towards anyone, including anyone mentioned in this document. I did not ask for this document to be made (actually, for a long time I actively discouraged people from doing it because I thought it wasn't necessary), but because multiple slanderous accusations that included my name were recently brought up to me by people I had never interacted with before as well as friends, and Horse does not seem to have stopped, I figured I would provide my side of things to people who asked as to give answers to anyone who might have heard of this situation. This document was in no way meant to encourage bullying of any kind. Please stay safe everyone!"

Phantom's Keep

Sim File Share (currently slow due to Simblreen traffic. I will upload a few days after the event so check my Downloads page for updates.) Dropbox

Welcome to Phantom's Keep, where the only thing spookier than the décor is your Sims' cooking skills! This charming little castle boasts one bedroom for all your witchy needs and a secret door that leads straight to the potion pantry - because who needs a grocery store when you have bat wings and eye of newt? Perfect for those late-night spellcasting sessions, just watch out for the occasional ghostly roommate. Get ready for a Halloween treat that’s simply to die for!

Price Furnished: 131,371 Price Unfurnished: 62,298 Lot Size: 20x30 Lot Type: Residential Store Content: Click here CC Used: Click here File Type: Package Min. Required Game Version: 1.42 Packs Needed: The Sims 3, World Adventures, Pets (Wallpaper), Generations (Wallpaper and Stairs), Late Night and Seasons

Hello and welcome back to my blog!

As a final treat for this year's Simblreen (@simblreenofficial), I'm excited to share a house inspired by the spirit of the season! While the name of this lot may be a nod to Danny Phantom, unfortunately it isn't a replica of Pariah's Keep. Instead, it's designed to be a home fit for a modern-ish witch and I've included as many Halloween-themed CC items as I could.

I had a lot of fun building it and I hope you enjoy exploring it! If you missed the first and second treats, click the #Simblreen tag to check them out.

Click on the ’Keep Reading’ below for more information and pictures on this lot.

I’ve been considering getting the Supernatural expansion pack but something has always held me back into doing it and working on this house has made that temptation even stronger. Since I don’t have the pack, all witch-related objects are purely decorative. You can replace them with Supernatural objects like cauldrons, wands, etc. which can be stored in the hidden witches' potion pantry in the tower.

As a reminder, 📣 please note that the store content and CC included in the lot are not included on the download file. The lot may seem a bit sparse from above based on the floor plan pictures but this includes around 79 CCs. These are not required and will be automatically replaced in the game but if you want it to look the same as in the pictures, you can always go to my WCIF Navigation page, where I’ve compiled a list for those interested in downloading them separately.

I placed three fog emitters outside the house to create an eerie atmosphere, especially at night and as long as your game is patched to 1.42 or higher then you won’t need the Ambitions expansion pack for this to be available. However, the Generations and Pets expansion pack are required due to the build items used in the lot as stated in the Details section above.

If you want to check and/or remove the fog emitters, enable “testingcheatsenabled true” and “buydebug on” after.

This lot has been play-tested and let me know if you experience any problems on your end!

Unsolicited Writing Advice

Completely random reminder to back up your work, especially if you're a writer, IF or game developer, coder, or creator of any kind. People sometimes ask me what my advice for other writers is, and I always forget to include this one, but it's one of the most important things, especially if your career, livelihood, or long-form projects hinge on writing in any way! Take it from someone who just had two backup methods fail unexpectedly and only the third backup prevented me from losing a solid month of work, you need to back up your work in as many ways as you possibly can. It may seem like a pain in the ass at the time, but I've seen a lot of games or stories stall or fail completely due to a catastrophic loss of data that utterly kills any drive to keep going with the project because of the need to start over. I'M BEGGING YOU, BACK UP YOUR DATA.

I recommend having at least 2, ideally 3 methods of backup:

Automatic cloud storage. I personally prefer working with Dropbox, where every change I save is automatically synced and backed up to a cloud server as well as natively saved on my own device. It also has robust version history, so if you figure out you've done something horrific and unknowingly saved over something important or rewritten a section you weren't supposed to, you can rewind everything in a folder down to a specific minute (over the last 30 days): a feature that has saved my hide just a few too many times for comfort. A free Dropbox account gives you 2 GB of storage to work with. Working within Google Drive works just as well, and the free version gives you 15 GB of storage (though that's shared between your email account and other Google apps, as well)! However, I don't believe it provides automatic syncing and backup the same way Dropbox does: you either have to work directly within a Google doc for your work to be automatically saved to the server, or you have to manually upload the files to your Google Drive to back them up each time.

Physical storage. Every few weeks or months, I also take the time to back up my important files to an external hard drive or thumb drive. Again, it's kind of a hassle, but if the day ever comes that you lose your passwords or find that they've been changed, a company's servers go down or they go bankrupt, they decide to start charging you to access your data, or whatever crazy circumstance you can think of, it's always good to have a physical backup somewhere. A basic 1 TB thumb drive is somewhere around 20$ USD (though it can be slower at that price point if you're transferring a large amount of data each time), and it's even less if you don't need that much storage. A 1 TB external hard drive (which has a much quicker transfer rate) is around 40-50$.

If all else fails, email. If you can't get access to physical storage devices and cloud storage services don't work for you, consider setting up a free Gmail or what-have-you account specifically for backup purposes, then email a copy of your most important files to it every time you make a significant change to them. This may seem sort of primitive and simplistic, but it works, and you can even use it as a little journal or diary of your progress!

Again, you may think this is overkill, but I am convinced that writers are especially prone to proving Murphy's Law and have seen way too many projects, friends, and colleagues fall prey to this oft-overlooked issue. I can count at least half a dozen times where -> my primary device like my laptop broke, failed, became corrupted, had water spilled on it, etc. -> I then turned to my secondary device (hard drive or thumb drive) only to find something was wrong with THAT (broken, outdated, incompatible with currently-owned tech, corrupted, not up-to-date backups) OR I turned to my cloud storage and found something wrong with THAT (unknowingly saved over data and didn't realize it until 3 months later, meaning not even version history could save me) -> and it was only the THIRD method of backing up that saved my ass.

Anyway, this is just your friendly neighborhood writer reminding you to back your work up! It's a necessary part of the job! Thanks for coming to my TEDtalk!

Mike Wheeler and Will Byers Sim Recreation Download + CC Included

After a long while - and I mean a long while - of attempts to create Byler in the Sims, trying to resemble the actors as much as possible, I've finally gotten as close as I'll get. Insane amount of credit to all the CC creators; I wouldn't have these great results without their skin details, presets, sliders and more. Every CC I used for the body will be included in the download folder.

Now that I'm confident in how they've came out, I wanna share it for you guys to download and play with!

I am using ReShade in the photos above (obviously). So for reference, here is their heads w/o reshade:

download (dropbox)

drop the contents in the sim files folder into the game's tray folder, and it should pop up in your sim library in game as long as you have the "Include Custom Content" box checked. cc will go in mods folder, ofc

if something isn't working or it's not looking how it looks in the images above, please lmk! it should come out fine though if you have all mods downloaded, and if no mods you may already have prior prevents other sliders from working.

Instructions for ballot watchers included directions to “Stop the Mules,” which they claimed are “well trained and financed” and part of a “global network.” The instructions given to those in the chat told watchers they could stage 12 feet from a dropbox, however, the law says they must be 75 feet away and a federal judge ruled in 2022 that the groups behind such efforts needed to observe from at least 250 feet. The person from Arizona later told the chat he was watching dropboxes in Yuma. The same user was found by the Mirror to have posted violent and racist messages on the far-right social media platform Gab, whose owner is a known antisemite. “Can’t be closer than 12 (feet),” the user wrote when an article about the lawsuit against drop box watchers was shared with the chat. That individual identified by the Mirror also shared a file listing dropbox locations throughout the state and claimed that the AP3 member whose photograph was shared widely was a “fed,” or federal agent. “You are probably correct about them being feds,” the user wrote. “Us patriots know better than to do that unless they really are dumb asses.” However he was quickly rebuffed by another Arizona member. “They’re not, I’m in constant contact with both individuals, they’re good people,” the user wrote.

Anon here about the siand fics thanks for the list.

I've only been reading fics since 22' and she hasn't been active for most of that time. So idk if it's bad or not but her writing is superb and I really want to read all of it.

if you feel comfortable could you share the files?

Idk if siand has said something against it.

not at all!! i think most of us usually had her fics saved 😭 but i’m afraid all my files that i collected from place to place are on my books app on my phone and i have no idea how to share it….. but you should check these posts they have all of the files and wayback link! so kudos to them <3

from cgsf

hello editblr !! ik a lot of blogs have psds uploaded to deviantart, so here's a reminder that deviantart made a public statement supporting Israel and is owned by WIX, which is an Israeli company on the BDS list.

Consider using alternative file sharing sites to relocate your psds to, such as Google Drive, Mediafire, Dropbox or Mega! (these are just ones I know of, feel free to reblog with additions!!)

remember to do your daily clicks for Palestine 🇵🇸

🐝  *  ―  𝗖𝗔𝗥𝗥𝗗 𝗧𝗨𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗔𝗟: 𝗠𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗖 𝗣𝗟𝗔𝗬𝗘𝗥𝗦 important note: only works if you have a pro or a pro plus account, and can use the 'embed' element.

―  STEP ONE:  PREPARING YOUR MUSIC

if you want to have music play on your carrd, the most important thing is, of course, the music. just make sure you have whatever song you want to have played in your files, and if you don't already have it, make sure to download it. now, the next step is to share your file so you'll get a direct file link you can later use in your music player code. personally i'm gonna be using and explaining the dropbox method for this, but there are other ways to do it as well. upload the music file to your dropbox ( either directly or to a special folder, whatever you prefer ) and then click the share button. then create link and copy link and you'll end up with a link that should look something like this: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/j904wa1i2e229tdfa4rkb/ok-3.gif?rlkey=jy7822s2rrgaszj3jduggxn9k&dl=0 to create a direct download link out of this one, take out the 'www' and instead replace it with 'dl' so you'll have something like this: https://dl.dropbox.com/scl/fi/j904wa1i2e229tdfa4rkb/ok-3.gif?rlkey=jy7822s2rrgaszj3jduggxn9k&dl=0 save this link somewhere or keep it handy because we're gonna need it again a little later once we actually start working on the carrd.

―  STEP TWO:  GET THE MUSIC PLAYER ON YOUR CARRD

for the next step, we're gonna be looking at different music player codes. there are a wide variety of ready-to-use ones already available ( for example here ) or if you are good at coding, you can always create your own as well. whatever you prefer and feel more comfortable with. once you've found something you like, copy the code because it's finally time to actually put it all on your carrd. if you have multiple sections and want your music to be played in all of them, either use a header or a footer and if you only want it in one, put it in the one you want to use for this. click on the little '+' to add an embed element to your carrd ( it's the one with this symbol: '</>' ). scroll down to the 'code' section and paste the code of the music player you've previously copied there. next thing you need to do to make sure it plays the song you want is to locate the '<audio id="audio" src="link here"audio"></audio>' and replace the link with the direct file link of your music. to see if you've been successful, you either need to publish your site or save it as a template ( in case you aren't ready to publish it yet but still wanna check if everything worked as planned ) and it should display the music player and play your music once clicked.

―  STEP THREE:  CUSTOMIZE IT ( optional )

the last, and optional, thing you can do is customize it to your preferences. this is best done if you have a little knowledge and understanding of html coding, but minor things like changing colors can totally be done without it. for example, if you want to change colors just locate those within the code ( titled 'color' or 'background-color' and they should have a hexcode number right beside it ) and change the hexcode to whatever you want to use. or if it includes text, you can change the font size ( aptly titled 'font-size' ). you can just play around with different settings to see if you'll get something you like ― most of it within the '<style></style>' section of the code is pretty self-explanatory.

MAVERICK'S HANDWRITING FONT

Text sample:

Finally got the zip file into a drop box! This contains two files, one .otf and the other .ttf. im not sure of the difference, figured it wouldn't hurt to have both. Font contains the full uppercase alphabet, all number characters, and basic punctuation. If this drop box, for some reason, doesn't work, let me know and I'll fix it.

This is free for anyone to use as a resource for whatever artistic endeavours they can imagine!

Please reblog and signal boost this as I put a lot of time and effort into it so content creators can freely use it!

[theoldaeroplane]

If, like me, you've wanted a place to blog, but hate all the services and don't have the time or energy to mess with Neocities and the like---

try blot.im.

I wanted a place to host my original writing, but I didn't want to use Tumblr. I didn't want to use fictionpress or ao3, etc, and I really didn't want to have to convert everything to html every time I wanted to share a 500 word thing about my OC of the moment with someone. Blot fills all those needs.

Blot turns a folder into a website. You can sync it using Dropbox, git, or Google drive. It's been around for years and it's well documented. It's almost unheard of, for some reason, which is a damn shame. It can take a little bit of fiddling to set up how you want, but once it's done it's done. I post all my writing as raw Markdown files, with the only tweaks being to add some metadata to the beginning. It updates almost instantly. I've been using it for a few months now, and it's been a really good experience. From what I can tell there is also no moratorium on using it to host (legal) nsfw content.

Blot costs $5 a month, but you can self-host it if that's in your wheelhouse. You get a subdomain.blot.im url by default, but you can also use your own. Mine is at heycorgi.com. The site is a little messy but you can see it functioning, and there's a lot if you Google for people's blot.im blogs.

I don't get anything out of spreading this, I don't have a referral code or anything. I just think it's a really good tool. (It would be cool if it got bigger, though, mostly with the hope that more resources and themes for it might arise. There's a startling lack of themes.)

Start a blog! Tell a friend!
