Free Content Pwns Paysite Crap

[Azaya]

Especially since one of them tends to produce crap that makes people's games explode, and it certainly isn't Numenor.

[Dr House]

It's missing a "less", but it's clearly meant to say "all much less hideous than Marilu's".

Hey, that's what i thought but i wasn't sure of it.

[brainiac]

I'm sorry, I'm actually supposed to pay for that? With the plastic purple poles of doom and the shredded papers in place of flowers? No thanks!

I have an comparison!

This vomit-inducing kitchen decoration set by Sims2Sisters, previously posted by me in the Ugliest Paysite Items (v2) thread:

vs. this much better, wonderful free alternative by Simply Styling:

[Zillah]

I don't think I could create a lot without Macrossi's awesomeness. My downloads folder groans under the weight of her stuff.

BTW - hairy men - not looking for Grizzly Adams here, but if I wanted a twelve year old boy, I'd get one. I always thought back hair was gross until I recently started dating a very fuzzy guy. Purrrrrrrrr...I will never go back. One word, ladies (and otherwise inclined). Traction.

[Azaya]

Shakeshaft vs. Macarossi again. I think the pictures speak eloquently enough:



vs.



No contest there.

(For the record, brainiac, I think that's Simply-Styling you're thinking of, not Ogularama )

[brainiac]

Yes, I just realized that. I was surfing Ogularama's site when I posted that, so I got the names mixed up

[Piratey]

Macarossi FTW

Her desert plants are fantastic. EDIT: Azaya made a great point.

Stunningly high quality plants


Vs

Cardboard crap by Wood for Sims

[Azaya]

That's another good one, her desert plants against Wood for Sims's saloon outdoor set.

[dietofworms]

The WFS pic is so amazingly bad it got me giggling.

No one's mentioned OM's work at Avalon.  There's nothing pay to compare it to because it's  unique and so well done that it's in a class by itself.  Likewise Moune's Cambodian stuff. 

(I guess you could indirectly compare their work to Marilu's pseudo-Asian abominations, but I don't have the stomach to dig up the pics.)

[Pillbug]

You must have made a typo in your post Pillbug, All4Sims's recolors cannot beat Marilu's horror. Plus All4sims is a free forum (unless i missed something when i downloaded a lot of recolors there). I hope you meant to write "all LESS hideous than Marilu's".

Oops!   Sorry about that, I did mean less, not more.

Steaming pile of 'goth' crap by Grizzelda:


Beautiful dress by Gelydh (so happy she went free):

[dusdeedawn]

Oh I am so glad to see Macarossi's flowers in here - there really are none better!
My sims wear that Gelydh dress probably more than they should. And Grizzelda sucks... badly.

And now for Liana sewage:

Vs.
All About Style using the same mesh but doing it so much better.


(yes, pictures are small - glasses, people!) 

[Missbonbon]

Liana photoskins to much. Some of them are cute, when they aren't covered in wrinkles and not centered on the body.... which is a rarity with her

All about Style has totally killed my clothing downloads folder! I love all the styles especially their Victorian night gowns

[deelink]

Liana also gives them waspish waists, and makes Sim girls look emaciated. *shrugs* Not a look I go for personally. Especially with my Sims

[Theria]

The "Pshaw! Who needs a ribcage!" look?

Um, I do. Thanks.

...and to think, once upon a time, when I was young and impressionable, Liana was the ONLY clothing in my downloads folder. Heh. Live and learn.
