Thanks for the comments me lovelies!
CaptainAllama - I just personally do not like tattoos on the elder sims. I know it looks odd that they just disappear, but I like it that way
Debzi - yay! *plays in sugar*
Hopawaay - Someone else also asked how I make them, so here is a mini tutorial:
Mkay, firstly you must have BodyShop and an editing programme, such as Photoshop or Gimp. I am using Photoshop so will give directions on how to use that
1) Find a tattoo via google
2) Import a skintone in Bodyshop, make sure that you can use it as a base - Louis allows this and her skins are great
3) Go into your projects folder and find the skintone
4) Chose one of the files (like adult female, teen male, etc) and open it in Photoshop
5) Create a new layer and paste in the tattoo
6) Use the eraser tool to get rid of miscellaneous stuff around the tattoo, so you end up having it all nice and neat.
7) Now set the eraser tool to roughly 20% in opacity and make the size bigger, and gently erase some of the tattoo. Only a bit...so the whole thing goes lighter
Go onto the burn tool (make sure it is set to exposure and roughly 20% opacity) and go over the tattoo lightly. The colours should get brighter
And that is it. Just repeat with all the different tattoos until you are happy Sometimes steps 7 and 8 do not work, so you might have to try something else there!
