Title: Making my own artwork?
Post by: batgirl84 on May 24, 2006, 03:09:48 pm
How do I make my own posters and paintings do I have to use SimPe or is there something else out there which is a bit easier to understand as I couldn't get my head round SimPe?:sad5:

Check your PMs... you don't need to know much about SIMPE except where to find the Photo Studio in it.  That's pretty easy to use.

  I've PM'd you with a step-by-step walkthrough.

It's always nice when people help each other.

  I sensed some newness to all of it, and SIMPE Photo Studio is just a tad easier to use than grappling with the Wizards of SIMPE tutorial (which is excellent btw) just to create paintings.

  I had the time. :)

180!  Geesh!

  I gotta admit I  did about 10 while working on my pm to you.  Wanted to go through it myself so that I wouldn't give you bad advice, and ended up getting on a small roll...  

  But 180?

  Sheesh!

You can use Sims 2 Poster Importer, it's the easiest way (I think) to make them. That's what I use. Here's the description:
This utility will allow you to import posters to The Sims 2. You will be able to set the name, price, fun rating and room rating for every poster you create. You just need to create the bitmap and Poster Importer will do everything for you (it will automatically create a new item with every poster you import and place it in the right downloads folder).
And here's the link:

I think it's super-easy, you should at least try it out.

I tried it and found it kind of limited for what I wanted to do.  SIMPE Photostudio is more versatile in my opinion.

As long as I'm beating the drum for SIMPE I might as well post a link to their Photostudio tutorial.

Batgirl you would start a new thread in the proper section and just upload the files and pictures of the files you are uploading. You will see a manage attachments option. Click that and you will be on your way.
