Some files for you

I posted some things at my Tumblr.  You should Tumbl.   Yes.  Especially since Simblreen is soon.  :)

Tone files for creators.  :)

These are not skin tone sliders, just the dds and png files required for adding tones in Skininator.
If you want skin tones I have an older set here.***

What the heck is going on here:
After my wrist surgery I decided to do some graduated/graded washes. They’re a little messy, but that’s ok.  Then I took 5-20 pixel wide samples of each and squished them in 64 x 64 blocks.
Now I’m sharing the files with you, so you can play around with them.  You can edit, merge, fuss around with, attach to your skins, or anything you like.

Download (Mediafire)

Edit: Yes, you can to use these for environment files, though I don’t think they take 64x64 dds files(?!?!). I don’t know anything about custom lighting and water, so please don’t ask me for help;  I can’t help with that.

Oh, EA, your business model is bad and you should feel bad

Tired of feeling fleeced?

If sales are down, prices come down.  EA proved that when they released a significant simpoint sale when Hidden Springs initial sales were dismal, and EP prices are routinely and permanently reduced after the initial purchase frenzy has died off.

If we don't pay the prices, the prices will drop.

to whom it may concern

Dear EA Sim Store Pricing Team,

Having an idea is not the same thing as having a good idea.
