I never really went away, just stopped visiting the forums as much because of no time on my plate.

If you follow UOHomeDecor's Facebook page, you'll know I was laid off at the end of 2018, launched my own business and have been busy ever since. I still have UOHomeDecor and am still trying to do updates here and there.

The site recently went a complete redesign due to a change in support for the themes. I'm still fixing a few things, but for the most part, the redesign is done.

I still play UO, off and on when I can, just not as much as I used to (running a business is hard work, but rewarding work).

What are some things you would like to see added? I plan to start the Home Tours again as I have a bunch saved from before and a bunch of posts to add for guides and such.

Welcome back!

Home tours are nice, I always enjoy seeing good deco and design in action. A deco guide explaining where items with certain graphics and items come from would be really useful (a LOT of disreputable vendors selling easy to obtain items and quest rewards as "rares" and "server births"). That would be a pretty big undertaking though. Maybe the addition of some modern guides to deco tricks in centralized place (L-shaped stairs come to mind). I'm not sure what all you would like the scope of the page to be. Anything and everything home design and deco?

I've been working on that - but I'm not current with all the new items. Anyone that can help with screenshots I can edit for images and how to acquire would be really welcomed!

There are guides to L-shaped Stairs and other guides :)

Have you seen the site? You'd be surprrised what's already there and has been for a few years. I'm more out of date on current items LOL www.uohomedecor.com

I did an overhaul of the site - there might be some errors. If anyone sees any, let me know.

And some weeks I'm pretty swamped with my business. The last few were 60 hour weeks - ugh. But hey money is money, right?

60 hours billable. We won't say how many hours go into the non-billable. (A lot. A lot a lot.)

I haven't checked out your page yet, but I will. If it isn't there already, I'd like to see a section with each of the new castle designs. That way I can get some ideas for customization for my own.

It's not there yet. I need to add that. And keep designs.

I honestly wanted to be able to place some on test and play with them but haven't had the gold to do it. I'll see what I can do to get them there. I may do them by design with pictures for each castle on a page of its own.

Thanks for the suggestion!
