The Bookacy Family Alphabet Journal

Surprise, something Bookacy-related for a change! This is a quite brief behind the scenes entry for chapter 40. Brief, because a) it was a recap chapter so most topics have been covered already and b) this is a year overdue (literally a year...), so I may have forgotten things that I would otherwise have said. I just want this done for completeness' sake, so I can cross it off my to-do and move on to other things. Such as hopefully updating again in the near future!

( This way for the BTS )

So maybe I should show some outtakes and babble on about the first actual chapter of the apocalypse. Alright, here goes. Obviously, spoilery if you haven't read chapter 1.

( Pictures and babble under the cut )

Vaddi bobo! Time to finally talk about the Sekrit Project, because it's no longer sekrit! Beware of spoilers under the cut if you haven't read the Bookacy interlude or the Prologue to Villains or Heroes? yet.

Okay, so now that I'm finally done with that huge double update I've been working on for ages, I thought I should maybe do some BTS/meta/outtakes picspam on the double update. There's some stuff I've been sitting on for... I don't even know how long and I'm anxious to get to talk about it. :) The following is veeeeery spoilery for chapters 35 & 36, so clicky on the cut at your own risk if you've not read the double update yet!

( BTS/meta this way! )

Well, I may not have my simmies back yet, but I finally got my butt in gear and decided I'd do some BTS and picspam for chapter 32. After all, I do have the pictures and there's stuff I've been wanting to talk about for a while (and there's stuff I can't talk about yet, too, but let's not talk about that :) ). So...

( (A rather big) BTS and picspam this way, SPOILERY for chapter 32 )

Alright, I think that's about all I can show you without giving away too much. I'm still waiting to get my disks back, I've reminded my sister to pack those with her for X-mas, so it shouldn't be too long until I get to do the installation dance. Yay! Until then, I hope you enjoy the picspam. :)

Lots has been happening lately. First of all, I found out what was wrong with my pictures in my updates, and that would have been my reading comprehension. When Doc said "lossless compression" she must have meant lossless compression. In other words, I found out that I had a jpg compression on when making my pdfs in Impress, and once I turned that off and reuploaded, the result looked much better. This means I've been re-making pdfs and re-uploading them to Dreamwidth. Luckily that wasn't as big of a project as converting the chapters in the first place. So now I have nicer looking chapters, yay!

Second of all, I finished my main hood mini-rotation, and sent the final three teens of the generation, Connor, Cliff and Christa, to college. Hooray! I've given them makeovers and updated the cast list. That should be the final version, at this point I'd be very, very surprised if someone threw me a pregnancy. The gen. Bs should be too old for that at this point I believe.

Third of all, I thought that now that the chapter's done with, we could use some picspam too. So here you go, have a rather random picspam!

So, that's all for my picspam this time. Next up for the Bookacies is another college rotation, starting with the Greek House. If I'm not mistaken, Cyrus will be graduating this rotation, as will Bobby. Yay! But before that, I need to do some plotting and planning...

So, I thought it would be about time for some picspam. I've been playing a lot these past few days, as I'm having some time off from work and all. So I've been able to finish the autumn rotation and start the winter one. So I've got some stuff from the various Bookacies to show. But first...

( Let's have a small behind the scenes for chapter 24 (maybe minor spoilage if you haven't read ch. 24) )

( Miscellaneous picspam (including a few ackward situations and pixellated nekkidness) )

That's it for the picspam for now. The kids are closing in on college, or most of them anyway, and I'm having a blast playing.
