Thanks YOTEAMO … I really need to look into the suggested (UIC) you mentioned. I haven't looked into using it before because I thought is was a Mod you have to add to the game. I have gotten by so far without having to use Mods and was kind of sketchy on whether I wanted to since my game works fine. Reading the info at the link you provided, it seems to suggest that you use the program to adjust the images only … before you Upload to the Exchange … Thanks Again.
Looking around though, and investigating the builds of some truly talented people here ... most of my builds are not what you would consider “Family Friendly”. When you look through my lots available in the Studio, you will notice that a few have “Trainer” in the name. Most of the lots that I build are made for the purpose of a Sim living in luxury and comfort as they train up in skills and levels.
Since I have a serious distaste for pre-made homes provided by EA (as well as most of the pre-made Sims), I spend a lot of time in-game developing Sims and building houses. I only add one of my builds to the Studio, if my Testing Crew and the appropriate Trainees have what I consider to be a wonderful time split between style and function while on the Lot.
I guess what I am getting at is that the lots I make are not just for Style, but are likewise as much for Function. I am not building a Lot that sits there and looks pretty … but one that does everything it can to “spike-out” and max positive
Moodlets for Sims training there, so it is easier to keep them in a good mood and earn more
Lifetime Reward Points while they are in training (just from being on the lot).
I have to say that it has been rather hard to get the Trainees and Tutors on the Testing Crew to leave this last build, and go on to another. I mean it when I say
“Extensively Tested” … and I am always surprised at the tiny details that can be missed in the initial build.
You are correct though YOTEAMO, and presentation means a lot as far as visibility is concerned. If I ever start building Houses designed more for the general user, and more family oriented, I will certainly have to look into another means by which to present them.
Right Now … I am just
Thankful for all the support I have received from the plethora of awesome builders around here.
You All Have Very Good Work!BlackSand
