Redesigning the Redesign.
Love the idea of an S4 rebranding, but find the redesign upsets your design sensibilities? Feel free to Post your version and/or suggestions here! (First time creating a discussion, so hope this is in the right section!).
Here's mine. I was lazy and only did one for each DLC type though.

These are the GP and SP covers. I really liked how the redesign had a colourful background, but found the colours didn't match, and were too busy, so here, I used the original colours behind, but didn't bring it all the way. I thought this helped the sims stand out a bit, without it being too overwhelming. On a side note, I hated doing parenthood because the new cover has the teen closer to her mum, but I couldn't find a render for that, so I had to do some editing, so it took a little while.

Here is my version of the XP cover. Again, I loved the brightness of the re-design, but found the EP covers waaay to similar to the GP covers, which sucks a little for people with colour blindness. That said, this cover still isn't great, as I'm sure people with red-green colour blindess would have difficulty seeing the logo, but I wanted to keep the get famous colours. I pulled the background all the way across the cover this time, because it's an EP cover, so it's something exciting, and should stand out on shelves.
I'm not sure how it works in America, but in Aus, the rating is generally down the bottom left, which is where the S4 logo sits in the redesign. Obvs, this had to be changed so I kept the logo big, and up the top across all 3 covers.
