It's a combination of both video card and touching up with an image-editing program. The better the card you have, the less touch-ups you'll have to do. I have a great (pair) of video cards and do very little editing. So you're all right :)

BTW, I use Photoshop CS2

heidi_aston:
well it is either a good graphics card or it's because they are taking pictures using the printscreen (PrtScn) button on your keyboard, doing that can sometimes really give your sims pictures that good quality, the camera in-game is quite cr@ppy

Oh and maybe a good photoshop programme :D

-tweaking in-game pic options
-graphics card awesomeness
-good photo editing program (For the record, I use Paint.NET)

Karla!:
in case you dont have photoshop [i have it but have a very hard time understanding it] you can dowload a similar program for free[just google it or something] called photoscape..its amazing =)

Theraven:
I use Gadwin Printscreen for my story pics now (so that I can save the pictures without going in and out of the game all the time - remember: save as TIFF files) and Adobe Photoshop CS3 (plus that I've got around 3-4 years of experience using the programme at school and also a digital photography course)

also, turn all graphics up ingame, and if you still want to use the C-button pics, use the largest picture size available.

In photoshop I also use the brightness/contrast option (in the layer panel) for getting a small colour boost to the pics (but don't take it too far - it can make the pic look ugly wiht too much of it, as goes with all filters and so on. Less is more!), and I also use the smart sharpen filter before resizing a picture (this helps a lot - but don't put on too much). I also mostly use PNG files since JPG files have a tendency to turn down the picture quality a little.

and also remember that the less editing a picture needs after it's taken, the better it is, and the less work it is for you afterwards. There are also plenty of picture taking/editing tutorials both here at insim and on the MTS2-related sites.

hope this helps :)
