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.

May I ask how old are you and what country are you from?

Not to burst anyone's bubble, but the average American woman is a white, brown-haired, brown-eyed, 160 pounds, 29 year old woman, according to the LA Times. If Sims looked like the average woman, the vast majority of them would have a little extra cushion on them. They would no way be a under a size 10 or 14 for UK. The same is true for men. The majority of people in the US and UK are overweight so... I don't really know what you're talking about. And I'm not talking about curves either. Majority of people have extra fat on their bodies.

I personally think the Sims are pretty hot even without makeup. They don't have acne, crooked teeth, dark spots, sun burns, wrinkles, bad hair days, etc (all the things that make us human) and they are all under the age of 30 until they are elders, then they are like early 60s.

"Average American women" Sims isn't set in America.

Well... that explains Willow Creek's design being inspired by New Orleans. :D

Adding my two cents in.

This sim right here on my exchange account: https://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=9122791 is my most downloaded sim for some reason. She has minimal CC, with only a cc skin and a Nightcrawler hair on. Idk why she got highly downloaded though.

I believe this may be better suited to a Sims 3 related discussion. :smile:

That said this thread is a bit old and while I definitely can see this still being a relevant topic of discussion if folks do want to discuss gallery content and the diversity of housing being shown, it may be best to start a new thread for a conversation about The Sims 4 Gallery. :smile:

I'm going to close this thread but would encourage interested folks to kickstart a new conversation about this~
