It's not so much the poses I mind, they change again so soon you don't have to look at any one in particular for that long anyway.  It's the lag.
I have a sims that know a lot of other folks and whenever I go to the relationship panel or use the phone book, the lag from it having to update all those thumbnails is ridiculous.

I don't even know why EA would include something like that.  It's not like people were begging for a "feature" like this.  But leave it to EA to not fix what's broken and add stuff that's ignorant.

Ok.  Of course I have no idea how any of that works so I thought I'd ask.

I've only seen that pose once.  I used the agesims cheat to age a zombie down (way back when Uni came out) to child to see if they would retain the zombie skintone when aged back up.  When I aged them back up they had that crucified pose...freaky.

Does it update if you change clothes and/or change appearance in the mirror or will they still have the old clothes/hair/makeup on?

Ok, thanks Chaavik.
I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Is there any way to stop the portrait/icon/thumbnail (whatever the proper name is) from changing every 2 seconds?

It's not so bad if you have a few sims but when the house is full it lags a bit with all that changing going on.

Also, the lag when someone goes to call someone is crazy...especially if your sim knows a lot of other sims...while the phonebook updates all those thumbnails.

ETA:  All eps and sps.

Ok, thanks for the clarification.:thumbrig:

Yes, I have that.  I guess I should have worded it differently.
I have ep8, have no dancing on toes and just downloaded this mod.  From your answer I'm assuming no dancing on toes is not part of the 'dance together' in this mod and I'll need both mods.  Is that correct?
Thanks.

Does this prevent the kids from dancing on someones toes?  I hate that with a passion.

There's a no stray sign over at simlogical.com that I've been using..I have AL.  You just put the sign (found under dec/misc) on your lot and no strays/wolves/skunks appear.
It doesn't stop the penguin though.
