As the World Turns.
LadyAzmodan:
I just use the 'c' button (c for camera) and then it puts them in
sims2->neigborhoods->N001->storytelling.
(just an exsample)
Then i open them in photoshop, but i have GIMP too, and that does the job just as well, i just GIMP for another sims story i did. i resize them with 80% and give them a frame. thats it!
I do have my game set to take large, best quality photos, and half of Mary in the mirror is shot with the game on High quality, and the other half on Middle. Actually its only they two last chapters i just uploaded that is on 'high' the rest is on middle.
I don't photoshop or alter the lighting. i only resize and frame. And im sure you can get your pictures to look drop dead brilliant! that teaser shot you ahve in this thread is awesome!

I like this. However, I wouldn't say that your problem lies with the pictures. True, they could be improved, but they are not bad. I do, however, think that your writing could be improved. Since English seems to be your second language, I won't comment on grammar, or even style - I think you're very brave to even try writing in a foreign language, and it's unfair to comment on something which causes native speakers trouble too.
It's the depth that I have a problem with. I find your captions quite dull, not because of style issues per se, but because there is not enough information in there to make them interesting. I am not referring to long, grandiose descriptions - honestly, I despise purple prose - but a sense of how and why people are doing things. When you do do internal monologues, they're quite good, but there aren't enough to really explain why the characters are doing what they're doing or how they feel. Similarly, since you will naturally have a problem recreating realistic dialogue in a foreign language, you might like to start describing how people speak: rather than 'he said', have him snarl, spit, laugh. Adjectives are your friends :)
Looking forward to more. I think I see where this is going, and it should get interesting...
