Some basic questions

Question

Hi,I want to start uploading some of my sims/lots. Where can I do this, other than "My Studio" on The Sims website? Given the fact that I use CC in my creations, How do I know it's okay to upload my creation? (Is that enough to credit the creators of the CC, or should I not upload the CC used for my creation at all? I'm not sure ...) Maybe I can upload as a Library file?Other considerations / recommendations when uploading content?Thanks!

If people don't have the cc you use then whatever you upload will be missing bits if they download them. For example, sims with a cc skin will just be a flat black sim like shape for anyone who doesnt have the skin used installed.

Library files are just pointers to various files used to make the object.

I personally wouldnt load or doiwnloacc anything if I knew it contained cc so I probably can't be of much help to you.

Uploading as a library file or .sim file (what's in the SavedSims folder) is safer because CC doesn't travel with them. It can travel with a sims3pack but it's not guaranteed.

While plenty of people like CC-free downloads, most places are fine with you using it as long as everyone's credited and linked to. Especially if it's just hosted on your own blog somewhere!
