I have been wanting a plain recolor of these lamps ever since I stopped using overheads in every single room. (<- Was lazy.) But your recent spate of productivity is killing my downloads folder! Have mercy on me.

Oh, thank you!

I've always liked the shape of that shade, but the frills and the colour of the base made this mostly unuseable. Yay! This is a great improvement! Thank you!

Wow, plastic box. Another set of fantastic recolours. That bug where it didn't light up properly annoyed me, and thankyou for fixing the bug and sharing your creations!

This has been one of the most useless objects in the game, now it'll be one of the most useful I think, it's perfect!

I love the way you've been retexturing/recoloring objects. The color selection is splendid and the ideas are growing. Quite wonderful work. Thanks for these. I can't wait to see how you move forward with your recolors! I plan to use your fabulous designs in future houses I create (especially those with a nontraditional theme). Thanks again.

Oh...now these lamps make sense in my game. Before your recolors they were only this: BORING. Thank you

Thank you so much! I've always hated the patterns and colors Maxis provided that never matched any of my decor. These lamps will go with anything and everything! Just what I needed!

I love this. They'll go with anyhthing. And old and modern, both. Thanks a lot, now I will actually use those lamps :-D

I am always looking for decent lighting for my sims that I myself would be happy with in my own house, and I have to say a lot of the Maxis-made stuff is rather ugly.

I will make good use of your lights. They look simple, yet good. And as pepsihamster said, they can go with anything.

Thank you
