I don't know, it's really beginning to get tiring to boot up The Gallery and seeing samey-looking Sims at the top of the downloads list. It's always Handsome McJawline and his trusty companion Hardpec O'Fairskin. For the ladies it's Blondie Curves and her friend Busty Back-Problems. I'm not gonna lie, I'm guilty of the same thing(the last four female Sims I made were definitely gifted in the chest department) but it sucks that it's always the same kind of Sims at the top. If it's not the classically handsome/beautiful it's the daily celebrity Sim.

Its always celebrity look a-likes with to much CC.

I really haven't ever really bothered looking at sims in the gallery. I feel the search options aren't specific enough to really find what I might be looking for, and I figure the gallery is probably the same as the exchange in ts3 as far as what most of the sims are going to look like. I know the exchange was always chock full of sims who pretty much all looked the same and brimming with so much CC they didn't even look like they came from the same game. Then, if you did download one of the sims (which I almost never did since I dislike CC that clashes with the style of the game) you would either wind up with a bunch of funky game breaking junk or you wouldn't get any of the content with the sim since it was in .package format and the vanilla version of the sim would look like a deformed horse's rear. So yeah... I don't sim shop on the gallery/exchange. Lots are generally much better quality though.

I created a sim who is not a buxom bomb shell. (No CC either)http://www.thesims.com/gallery/browse?category=all&searchtype=ea_origin_id&sortby=downloads&time=weekly&searchquery=LaBlue0314&max=25I do suggest if you don't want her loosing her weight, you need to change her main athletic trait to something else. Because in my game she lost her weight the very first day I was playing her.

Go look at the TS3 exchange. 80-90% of the sims on it are blonde hair blue eyed blow up dolls.I doubt TS4's gallery will be much different a year from now. The most prolific sim makers make like 20 blow up dolls a day.

We really need more diversity in the top Households in The Gallery.

Seriously, not even the kid sims were spared in the sims 3 exchange. Its an army of Jonbenet Ramsays.

You know I'm not sure if I should be thankful or regretful that I never saw The Exchange in it's prime. I always got my Sim downloads from MTS which to be perfectly honest has the same problems except it extends to their bio. Over there it's always the super-evil but also super-hot Sim and Sims who suffered from having the personality of being "extremely rude because they're totally smarter than everyone!".

okay confession I went with ones I made, but if you're willing to dig and I do mean Dig it is possible to find more normal sims

Happy hunting B)

Honestly I feel like it's just tougher to make average-looking Sims. These two are my best attempts at making a Sim that's average body-wise:

I think the toughness of creating normal Sims coupled with bombshells and studs getting so much attention and praise just pushes people to get lazy.

In that respect, it's great that we can create our own Sims and let other people have their fun.
