Although the Lord of the Rings trilogy may be done, that doesn't mean you exploration of the Tolkien world need to be as well!

Now giving all of The Sims 2 wallpapers a central location, the Sims 2 team has created a goodies section over at TheSims2.com allowing you to download all of the desktop wallpapers in multiple resolutions. Check them all out here.

Three years ago today, Internet history was made as SimGlobal first appeared on the web. OK, so maybe it wasn't that big of an event, but here we are, three years later, thriving in our little corner of the net. We've gone through many changes in the last three years, including three hosts and two domain names. We currently have three people running the show (Myself, Cameron and Andro), and I must say we've had fun doing all this. In any case, we certainly hope to still be around in another three years.
