:director: FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. MAKE SURE YOU BACK UP YOUR CURRENT CAS PRIOR TO INSTALLING THIS FILE.

The following expansions and stuff packs were installed when this CAS was made: University, Nightlife, Open for Business, Pets and Glamour Life Stuff. THIS CAS IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH SEASONS.


Here is an improved CAS/family screen for skinners (and anyone who may want a clean, uncluttered look).  The CAS is in a medium-dark grey with warm undertones, and the family screen is in a medium cool grey. This is a plain, boring CAS for those who want screenshots of their work, and nothing else.

Advantages of this CAS:

* Improved screenshots with better lighting and no distracting backgrounds.
* Neutral colors make for better color decisions - the old background creates an optical illusion where red hair files and orange pets do not appear as intense as they really are. (The "orange" areas on the pictured cat have actually been toned down with a lot of yellow).
* Dark colors no longer "disappear" into the background of the family screen.
* Two different shades of grey allows for different screenshot backgrounds, in the event one of the greys causes a "dissapearing" effect with a new item.

You can see examples of these points in the attached images.

:director: YOU NEED THE FOLLOWING CUSTOM CONTENT IN ORDER FOR YOUR CAS TO DISPLAY PROPERLY

Windkeeper's Empty CAS Screen: http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?p=1244249

* wind_CASinvisibleroundpodium.package
* wind_CASinvisibleobjects.package
* wind_CASinvisibleobjects_familypart.package

The rest of the content is Maxis.

I've never been the kind to ever let my feelings show
And I thought that bein' strong meant never losin' your self-control
But I'm just drunk enough to let go of my pain
To hell with my pride, let it fall like rain
From my eyes Tonight I wanna cry

Er, I guess I'll get around to it sometime...I'm not really a fan of repeatedly sending my sims to Uni (once in a while's fun, every freaking time isn't) so I usually just assign them a college degree via SimPE.

Something i cannot stand is a loss of self originality and a gain of conformity. Seen entirely by those who are the sheep of society.
