SIMMAGE Opens This Week on SimsHost!

Another veteran Sims site, SIMMAGE returns from the R.I.P. list this week with a unique collection of fully furnished houses. At the bottom of each house's web page, you will find links where you can download all the furnishings that go into the house!

Mage has a lot more to add to her site so stay tuned for more updates from SIMMAGE!

SimsHost Offers Hosting to More Games!

In the previous issue of the SimsHost Chronicle we announced that SimsHost opened the hosting rules to offer web hosting for any fan site that has downloads, and Kelly's Zoo Tycoon, Bamboo Zoo Shack, came on line before we could even announce the offer! Now there are still more fan sites for other fun games a-building!

If you would like to see fan sites for other games on SimsHost, please tell us about it in the Yahoo groups for Moon Sims or SimsHost, and of course don't forget to tell the fan artists about SimsHost!

If you would like to have your fan site hosted by SimsHost just click on the link to Get Hosted and learn all about it! We look forward to hearing from you!

The Amazing Second Anniversary Mall Maze Continues

We firmly deny the rumors that several sims have managed to get lost somewhere in our Second Anniversary Mall Maze and are now foraging the shops for food and clothing. However, we can attest that several thousand sims fans have succeeded in collecting all the goodies on the shopping list!

Webmasters and artists from more than a dozen sites collaborated for weeks to create the SimsHost Mall Maze especially for you! Even if you don't have your SimsHost subscription yet, you can still experience the adventure and download many of the goodies you will find in the wacky mall!

Unlike our previous treasure hunts, this adventure is a self-contained web site all to itself -- designed, built, maintained, and hosted by Candace's Sim Bazaar!

Come play at The Inn!

Don't forget to stop in at Ye Olde Town Inn, a gathering place created by the webmasters and artists of the SimsHosted sites exclusively for SimsHost subscribers. At the Inn you can meet the webmasters and artists, give them ideas in what you would like to see, and make new friends. Check out some of the fun we're having in the Jester's Corner! Join in the fun and start your own games!

The Answer to High-Priced Subscription Sites

With your one SimsHost subscription, you support the hosting costs for all the sites we host and enjoy new additions that continue to surpass all the stand-alone subscription sites combined with your one low-cost subscription to SimsHost! That's why we created SimsHost in June 2002 when we ran out resources to host sites for free on the Moon Sims server, and it's working great!

Just over two years ago we opened with two dozen founding sites. On that day, SimsHost instantaneously became by far the largest Sims site in the world offering the best value in subscription sites.

Today we host more than sixty fantastic sites for The Sims, the sites are bigger, and the service just keeps getting better! Taken collectively, the SimsHosted sites are still the largest site the The Sims in the world, yet we continue to be able to bring all these sites to you at a subscription cost that's half what you have to pay for the least expensive stand-alone sites.

Our heartfelt thanks to all our subscribers, webmasters, and artists for making it such a wonderful year! We will continue to endeavor to make the next year even better for you!

When a site's banner appears in the upper right-hand corner of the SimsHost home page, you can click on the image to go directly to that site!

We know that we host so many sites with so much stuff for The Sims that it's easy to get lost and overlook some sites that you want to visit, so we hope this helps!

Still the Biggest, Still the Best

Now the we are in our third terrific year, we thought you would like to know that the sites hosted by SimsHost taken collectively are still by far the largest site for The Sims in the world. Well, in all ways but one: We still have the lowest subscription cost of any site.

Continuing subscribers are paying only $2.00 a month (plus about a tenth of a penny per download on the average). That's about a third the cost of a typical stand-alone subscription site, for access to a hundred times as many downloads. We are pleased and proud to be able to do this while allowing each site to retain its own individual personality, even as SimsHost continues to grow.

On behalf of all the webmasters and artists we host, we sincerely thank you for your support in helping to keep all the sites for The Sims on line!
