@JoAnne65 Oh definitely, definitely photoshop/editing going on. IMO though the sims that she's made really FIT with the game though. I've seen a lot of people trying to get the same type of realism in TS4 with their human sims, and it quite often... doesn't look quite right. TS4 fits a cartoony stylized sim perfectly. With that said you can get some very nice CC to get some very realistic interiors.. but once you add in the sim.. it looses its realism.
One of the major problem I found when jumping back and forth from TS3-Ts4 is that while it is easier on a level to get diverse ethnicities in TS4, the tailoring of the individual is far weaker than TS3. Makeup can't be changed in opacity, neither can face masks (at least not when I was making sims in TS4). So you get a lot of same looking sims, because you can't quite control the level of the mask or the makeup etc. Hair colours are also difficult because you have to either go with the set # or DL a million CC hairs and then to get the same colours in different styles you have to really search or stick with the same creators.
