One of the biggest problems I had using CC in my game was that, as beautiful as some of the hairs CC-creators have made are, the shading and shine on them just wasn’t my style; I like the more ‘matte’ finish of EA’s hairs… I just hate the bland meshes and weirdly painted texture.

Retextures are a perfect middle ground for what I was looking for. I like Anubis’s too, but if I have a choice I tend to go with Lotus’s Retextures; they have very subtle shading, and that just fits my style!

(If I had choose a runner-up, though… I am starting to get a *ridiculous* amount of Pose Packs, these days.)

We are the opposite in the type of hair's we like. I'm always drawn to the most shiny silky look. lol Must be the blonde deep down inside me! ;)

I understand what you mean though. Some of them don't photograph well, especially if your sim happens to be standing in front of a window. They get that weird see-through thing going on.

Only logged in for a short time today, catch up on some comments, post another challenge. Still not feeling that well but I guess it's my own fault!

P.S. I might have a surprise for you later too!

Hope ya have a good day/night hun. :)

Hehehe!! Well, my style's always been to try and keep my Sims fairly charicature-ish rather than realistic, so reallyreally shiny just doesn't do it for me--that and the way Peggy shades her hairs is a little bizarre... The platinum blondes always look strangely black: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uNj8HTqF-A8/TatJEFCvI6I/AAAAAAABPNs/qVNVO3O4vVg/s400/peggyzone-sims3-DONATE-MFAhair0246-1-b.jpg

I'm sorry to hear you're not feeling too well, babe! <333 Just take care of yourself, and don't push yourself too hard! I'll keep looking forward to your post, no matter how long it takes. ;)

A surprise?! Eee! :DDD

And you have a good day! <3333333
