Preferably in RAR format 'cause it's smaller, and point anyone begging for zips to a good RAR extractor, there's enough free ones around ;)

You may have your recolors included in the Sims2Pack.  After creating the Sims2Pack file, open it, uncheck the recolors you don't want to include, click Update, then save as a new file.  You can remove unwanted sims and mods this way, too, if you're packaging a lot.

Then compress the file into either .rar or .zip format and you're set to upload.
