@Dannydanbo , yep, me too. Or I use the home and decor to illustrate the kind of person/sim I want them to be. There are soo many things those three measly traits fail to show. The same sim placed in different sized and styled homes and wearing different outfits represents something different to each player. A lot of the immersion comes from choices in homes and clothing. Of course, using the gallery to find the right home or sim is a boon. I like to build, but complex things or particular styles are beyond me (I drive my self nuts trying to be perfect) and when I want a particular style the gallery is where I go. Other people have good ideas too.
