Great find on those bangles! I rarely, if ever, used them, but I will now.
Now, to stick my hand in the fire, I'd like to recommend a visit to
Holy Simoly to see what can be done with the game's own resources in terms of creating truly beautiful Sims. For those who think you have to settle for homogeneous puddings without custom skins, eyes, brows, makeup, hairs, etc., you really should see what can be done in the hands of a master.
Yeah, I know, technically they're a paysite because of the donation packs, but I make an exception for Holy Simoly. So, go ahead and throw your punches, I've got plenty of Dr. House's rum left to deaden the pain.
