Ab Fab Kavar! Empress if you read this I think it's time for a Holiday thread! No?

Wow, I can't believe they are under glasses! You are brilliant. What imagination! Hooray!

MetalFenix, I love them! Your work is always amazing.

Thank you, Yakov! The only hack that I knowingly down loaded was the one by, I think, CrammyBoy. This unzippered state has never happened before. The penis only shows for the bottoms, not the complete outfit.

I just think this weirdness is simply a new manifestation of my Veronaville Horror.My Root D/Ls folder is crammed full (no pun intended) and does need a thorough cleaning. Maybe when I gather enough strength I will go thru my files and see if I didn't inadvertently D/L another teenie weenie. To fault or default, that is the question!

No matter what, I love everything that Jeff has created for us, unexpected weenie or not.

Jeff, you've got to admit. it's pretty funny! Maybe Maxis had a "hidden agenda" and then got cold feet and that's why these designs didn't make it to the original..."T" rating and all. I have to play with the shorst a bit more to see what's going on. Maybe it's Crammy's hack but I would have no idea why that hack would be partial to these shorts (Um, okay, I know I am...they are so hot).

I had a similar problem where an entire Sim would simply disappear but still be in gameplay. If your Sim only has a head I am thinking that you are using a custom skin and the nude MESH is not available. Just a thought!

Also, have you added the PATCH to your game? Some of the weird effects that were plaguing my game (like disappearing Sims) seems to have been fixed by the PATCH.

Jeff, I posted at GSC about the oddity I have with these scrumptious skins. In buy mode, the teen appears as if his fly is open and he is advertising his "worth." The penis is clearly visible.

The first teen I bought the two pairs of shorts for did not unzip his fly after the purchase was made and he was assigned the shorts to wear. At least this is what I recall.

The second teen might as well have attached a flag to his pole as it was waving mightily in the wind while wearing the long and the short of it. I tried using Crammy's hack option never to show the penis but the big pecker would not go away. I am stumped (even if the teen isn't).

The full skins do not have the same zipper problem.

Empress I just want to find a hay loft! Yakov rocks!

Okay, he is just too good to be true. Soooooooooooooo handsome!

Persephone this is just what Father Christmas ordered! They are all beautiful and I think I will be using them long after Xmas.

I thought the pictures looked a bit too unreal. All of the shots look so European in architecture (no complaint there). I just didn't believe I was seeing a new version of The Sims. I do believe that there will be a Sims 3 forthcoming but Maxis and EA have a long way to go to milk the current cash cow before introducing a new one.

Yummy, Yakov! I am ecstatic that you had the patience and willingness to answer my prayers. Yipee!

Jessica, that is my poor try at Dutch for Chris. I know how to say "I love you" in Russian but I have no access to the alphabet. All I can say for Yakov is "Ya wass yablue!" Okay so that is so not correct!

BTW, Jessica, if Yakov is to clean for you in an apron I am guessing that all he will be wearing is that apron. Nice image! I think I will close my eyes now and dream.

Yakov, I agree with you. It seems odd. My teen all have the proper neck in my game.

Jeff, my D/Ls folder is about to explode! I can hear the ticking!
