Family Pictures

Ever wondered where the picture goes that is taken after you created your Sims in Create a Family? Wouldn't they have it? I thought so, so I took the screenshot I made from them back then in Create a Family, cropped it and turned it into a framed picture with SimPE - now it hangs in their house.

You can easily make one for your Sims families as well. All you need is a screenshot of them (of course it doesn't necessarily have to be from Create a Family), an image editing software and SimPE.

How you can create your own family picture:
1. Open the screenshot in an image editing software, for example Paint.
2. Crop it and resize it (if you use the same picture base as I did, resize it to 256x256).
3. Open SimPE.
4. Go to Tools / Object Creation / Photo Studio.
5. Click on "Open..." and choose your image.
6. Choose a picture base. I chose this square painting of a fruit bowl.

7. Make sure "Flip Image" is ticked. 

8. You can click on "Preview" to see a preview of how your picture will look like.
9. Click on "Create".
10. Name your package file.
11. Put it into your Sims 2 Downloads folder.
