Lady Luck
Two photoshoots in one day! I'm telling you, I could play with PosePlayer for days.
Think you've got what it takes to tempt fate?
~ Guest appearance by Grantham Windsor ~
This time it's Cecilia Walton's turn as the elegant and dangerous mistress of fortune, Lady Luck.

City Lights
My desktop wallpaper was getting boring, so I asked Darwin for a bit of his time, and dabbled with the PosePlayer again. (I swear, the only thing I really need in Sims to make me happy is PosePlayer...)
Click on any of them to bring up the photo viewer and save any that you want - they don't look as big in the preview, but the will save as 1920x1080.

And, if you really want to spice up your desktop, we can do that for you, too.

Sims 3 - Custom Content List
This post will list out the CC used in the Gentleman's Club - Set #2, Lovely Ladies, and Fairy Royals.
Sorry for the delay to everyone who was waiting for this list. Since practically nothing is labeled in CAS what CC it is, it took me a while to figure out what was what.
I also realized that Darwin was not using the Frontbum skin for his face like I had thought (explained below), so if you downloaded that and were wondering why it still did not look the same as the photos, I've got it sorted out.
If you download the CC for at least the hair and skin, your Sims should look like mine. See below for info on Eye Contacts. Also, not every accessory used is listed since I couldn't find all of them (Karen/Sabrina's earrings), but it's pretty minor and you can easily replace them with something else you already have.
Because there are more items than I expected and to keep it all organized, the list can be found in the Google Docs spreadsheet below.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Aq8fYv4V_ZLLdEw3aFMtM3Y2ZHlzX2RUbUwwM0x2eWc&usp=sharing
A few things to note:
Thankfully, every piece of CC is non-default, meaning it won't overwrite skins, eyes, etc. of things you already have and mess with the way anything else in your game looks.
Darwin's skin was actually using Frontbum's body, but with Peggy Sims' face. Luckily, I was able to find a site that had converted the Peggy Sims into non-default versions. However, because the Sims were originally set to use a default/Frontbum skin, you will need to manually go in and change the skintones of Devon, Jason, Darwin, and Grantham to the Peggy skins (the shading bar in CAS will say Peggy on it). The package comes with three different skins - a dark/pale one, a yellow/tan one, and a more pink version. Devon, Jason, and Darwin use the pink version, while Grantham uses the yellow/tan version.
You really don't need to download all of the contacts from Burnt Waffles if you don't want to. I had used different ones to give some variety to them in photos. You can either download them all anyway, or just download the one you like the most, and manually go in and change everyone's eye colors to match the photos. Contacts are found under Looks > Makeup > Costume Makeup.
The clothing and accessories are also not required, but are still listed if you want the same look as the photos. I recommend at least getting Darwin and Grantham's outfits, just because they look so cool. ;)
Lastly, I'm not sure if I used different CC or if something else was off, but there are some things that aren't loading correctly from the original Exchange Sims even after I identified and redownloaded the CC to verify they were correct.
Cid - Long Sleeve Shirt as Accessory (change color to black) - this was for covering up his exposed stomach in his Everyday outfit
Darwin - Comeback Kid Tights (change color to black) - this was for covering up the gap between his pants and boots in his Formalwear outfit
Sabrina - Formal hair, listed under Hair With Accessories. There should be a group of 3 with the NewSea logo on each preview picture, the difference is the color of the clip. I chose the middle purple/blue version.

Dancing Wallpapers
Here are some photos I took of each of the groups, enjoy!
I'm kind of new to this type of blog, but you should be able to click on any image to get the full-size, with a slideshow at the bottom to let you switch between pictures. They're all nice and big, perfect for widescreen monitor wallpaper!

| This is as close as I could get without cutting off someone on the sides. |
 |
| Originally I was going to add a list of the Sims' names along with the corresponding song title to the blank spot on the right and put that at the end of the video, so I took some photos that are off-center like this one. Apparently in my haste I forgot to take a centered one of this group with the solo dancers. I also wasn't totally sure how to edit it in at the end, so I just skipped it. |
 |
| I'd intended to take another picture of just the girls, but never got around to it. I'll probably do that in the next day or so. |
1,000th Post!
I had my 1,000th post on the forums today! To celebrate, a new video!
Those crazy Sims! They'll do just about anything!

Let's Review: The Sims 3 - Midnight Hollow
The Sims 3 Store released their newest world today, Midnight Hollow.
I was not originally going to buy this, but as I was raiding on WoW last night, I suddenly came down with a cold. I stayed home from work today, and figured the best remedy besides bed rest would be to buy myself an expensive new world, so I got the gold version.
Despite this cold being mostly in my throat, I still went and did a video review of the new world anyway since I never get to review new content on time since I'm always at work when they come out.
I actually didn't even think to cover the clothes and most of the furniture until afterward, but the video was already an hour long and half done compressing. The EA team did a better job with their videos, anyway.
There is also a very weird blooper video that was made as a separate video (you'll see why when you go to watch it, I'll be shocked if it doesn't get flagged by someone). I have to make the disclaimer that it's not for children, because I'm sure someone could be offended by it. I was told it happened because of bad CC boots I have in my game, which I now have to track down.
Enjoy!
