Im going to add this to my post, what should be changed/added

And it may help to do this with your fingers crossed, chicken bones scattered around your monitor or TV, while wearing your lucky underwear and facing N by NW. With the game volume adjusted to precisely 74.

Its worked every time for me, voodoo not withstanding.

I have no doubt.

Just tried this. It worked. Thanks for the tip.

• In Oblivion, people didn't sink THROUGH a chair/bed and spasm for 2 minutes when I killed them.
  
• In Oblivion, when you grabbed an object, it moved at that exact point. You could even tip buckets to see if anything was hidden inside.
  
• In Oblivion, you could actually throw something with force using the grab feature. Oh yes you could. I did it many times to actually fling things. (using a mouse...not sure how it was with joysticks)
  
• Arranging things on tables was a breeze in Oblivion. Because you could grab the tip and nudge in any direction you wanted.

So I'm failing to see how, since Skyrim can't do ANY of this, it's not worse than Oblivion in the physics dept...

Don't forget drop food and actually arrange it on a plate and or dish! Seems like in Skyrim it floats above it worse then oblivion.

1) I had that happen all the [censored] time in Oblivion. Guess how often it's happened in Skyrim? Not at all.

2) You can do that in Skyrim, too.

3) This one is all opinion. I find it much easier to arrange things because of the auto-center.

However, in cases of arranging things I almost always use Telekinesis both in Skyrim and in Oblivion; because Telekinesis LET'S YOU ROTATE AND "ZOOM" OBJECTS. Yes, Telekinesis is in Skyrim; though, I think it's only found on Staffs. But it works EXACTLY THE SAME as it did in Oblivion.

I've been cheesebombing my house. It's mostly staying put. The bread stayed in its box. But the wine in the overturned chair ended up elsewhere.

Why can't I use both shelves of the bookcase, though?

I dunno how to fix it, but I have managed to decorate my home safely in Solitude. I have a statue of Dibella, and an amulet of Dibella on the little table in the corner next to a candle, and the Bee in a Jar on the bookshelf on the opposite side of the room.

It's likely as people say. Place an item, let it fall over, then place it again and it stays.

Still, I could never really get my bust of Grey Fox standing on the desk again in the thieves guild no matter what. I think I actually lost it somewhere.

Vigilance pushed over a platter of sweetrolls (It was kinda cute. I was all "No... NO! NO VIGILANCE! Don't you do it!! *Clatter* Ohhh nooo!! Vigilance! bad dog!) and I tried to put them back, and failed. I came back later, and the platter actually reset with the rolls, and apples, and stuff nearby. Was nice.

Maybe we can get a guide to decorate homes some time?

You can; you have to specifically open each shelf on it's own.

Look at the first shelf, fill it. Look down at the other shelf, and then fill that.

Thanks, but I just broke my bookshelf. I filled the bottom, or overfilled, and now it has nothing and won't select. All the ones on the top are stuck now.
