ROUND 10 COMMENTS - ENCOURAGEMENT
★★Melissa Shaw★★
Jojo Comments:
So Melissa is the second richest of the bunch. Your star power is strong with your sim
Bobskellington Comments:
Okay, well done on ending strong, I loved the majority of your entries, and felt like the Victorious pic really stole the show, magazine cover could've had better stuff written on and it could have been more editorial. I still think you did an awesome job, though! You've been a strong contender and you've proved time and time again that Melissa is a force to be reckoned with, so well played
★★Sylvie Vell★★
Jojo Comments:
Through out this competition you have always been one of my favourite contestants. There is something about your sim … that I like
Bobskellington Comments:
I really loved the first two entries, like a lot. So cute, amazing and just gorgeous! But the dress on the Victorious pic really put me off, you could have used so many other dresses that would have worked perfectly for this shot and background. Other than that, good job! You've been amazing
★★Amanda Belle★★
Jojo Comments:
Well done on making it all the way through this competition! Really proud of the work you have done through this contest. Like your little earning card, she looks very fun … I think this is perhaps her real personality here. I like it … she's got some money though hey!!! Anyway, this is another Forbes cover. It's really good. Though i honestly believe that your sim could have done a way better editorial picture. Her cover is nice, but her personality doesn't show and its seems a little like a plain head and shoulders shot. Your contest on the cover is nice and well put ... though i only wish wish wish ... that you did slightly bigger pictures. I think that bigger pictures would help you immensely in other contests too! Your final pic is lovely. It's a great cut and a fantastic dress to finish. Just love it ... well done.
Bobskellington Comments:
Nice work! I felt like you fell a bit short this round, I don't really understand how that dress screams Victorious. But I guess it's just your cup of tea and not mine, nothing personal. I also felt like your editorial could have been stronger. You could have been so much more creative, other than that. Good job, you've done fairly well throughout this whole comp and it's been a thrill to look at your pics.
★★Amara Monae Williams★★
Jojo Comments:
This is who Amara is right here… the first picture looks perfect. She looks like a red carpet diva. Like she actually belongs there … your rise to the top journey has been awesome to follow and I've loved every bit of it. Not only do you get better all the time ... but your characters seem to show growth as well. Your second picture was nice, It comes off a little bridal ... like what i'd see in a magazine for brides. Forbes is kind of a serious mag ... and even though this is 'slightly' editorial it doesn't really suit Forbes. I think a background with less blurring and a full or at least 3/4 body shot would have helped your shot here and even perhaps a little eye contact to bring more appeal to your picture.... Still very pretty and feminine. Your final picture is not hugely victorious... a smile for your journey perhaps? :P Her styling is beautiful and she belongs on that red carpet. Well done Kelebek.
Bobskellington Comments:
Wow, fam. Amara looks mesmerizing in the first two pics, I also noticed how you made it all red carpet like and that was extra cute and nice to me! Your Earnings pic was my fave out of the bunch. Sadly, I wasn't as mesmerized with your Victorious pic. I don't think the make up compliments Amara very well and I also don't know if that dress was such a good choice, however. You've been a fierce competitor and I just wanted to thank you for always giving it your best. You're amazing, fam!
★★Franklin Chaz★★
Jojo Comments:
If you think about where you were 9 rounds ago to where you are now … you must know that your better now than you were. I really do hope you are proud of your work and all the learning you have done through out this competition. I feel that you will be awesome in contests to come, because of your willingness to please and pick up things.The best thing you could have ever done in this contest is change your hair. It gives your sim soooo much character and just makes the picture go from mid range to high range at a glance. Your second picture not bad, i like the picture, but it is a tiny bit blurry .. watch that for future pictures. And finally your victorious shot! Wow she is totally owning this picture. It shows her personality right away! Great outfit and fantastic efforts in this contest fabtiff!
Bobskellington Comments:
Oh, boy. She's a fierce diva, yo! Very foxy indeed, and very strong. I love that about her! You've come along way and I really felt like you were victorious in your Victorious pic, plum girl. You done did it, did it good, too. You slayed me and I thank thee! However, your editorial pic was of very low quality and that's not a mistake you can afford to make so late into the game, you have improved a lot throughout this whole comp! Well done
★★Kalsome Yayah★★
Jojo Comments:
So your sim turned out to be the richest of all the stars on 85 million, which is really impressive. Now give me the money!!! Lol. I like your editorial picture. You really understand the editorial part of the task … which is fabulous. She stands out of the crowd and really shows true star power in this picture. She looks like a star when you look at her ... And finally your victorious picture, she looks great. You seem to have taken on a theme in your picture here and chosen some cartoon like guys in the background. I am not 100% sure if the picture needed it ... because your sim alone just killed it with that dress. Her face and pose doesn't say victorious overly ... but it was still a very pleasant picture. I think you have done a really stunning job every round. Be very proud.
Bobskellington Comments:
Wow, what an entry! All of these entries are so strong and I loved every single one of them, I was captivated and just in awe of it! You have kept me on my toes from day one and I have loved every single entry you have produced throughout this whole comp, that's why I am giving you such a good score for star power. Very well done
★★Emma Carsile★★
Jojo Comments:
Awks Emma the book writer. That first picture just reaks of her personality. Like a giggly nerd kind of pose. I like that you have stayed true to her personality through out. You didn't add her net worth on your earnings card though. We will never know how rich she really is!! lol. The second picture is great! A girl on fire. The hair looks fiery and all the things you added in your picture really set it off to make it stand out. I wouldn't say it screams the Forbes look ... but it does look really really good! If i was to be honest, your sim is possibly the most victorious looking of everyone. She's like "Oh yeah!!!!" while doing the pose ... She's got a fantastic dress and even her classic look. I'm glad you didn't stray far from who she really is. I have enjoyed your mini story through out this contest ... it's been great fun watching her grow into a star! Great job Pammie.
Bobskellington Comments:
So, nice entries. I liked the editorial pic, could have been stronger. Your Earnings pic was well thought out and I felt like you did a really good job with it. But unfortunately your Victorious pic really brought your score down, I love the dress, but sadly. That's the only thing I liked/loved about this picture, the quality is off and she's looking away instead of staring into my soul with that fierce look like she came here to steal the show! I would probably forget about her, afterwards. You've produced some awesome entries! You should be proud, and please don't feel like it's anything personal. You've done a great job and your editing is improving day by day, so well done!
OKAY SOOOO...
It's all over. Were all done here. I just want to take this time to thank each and every one of you for being committed and seeing this contest through. I am extrememly proud of all the work you submitted and all the effort you put in to making this contest successful, not only for me ... but yourselves. I have thouroughly enjoyed viewing your pictures possibly as much as you enjoyed making them! I hope that during your journey in this contest that you learned a bit, had fun and met some cool people along the way!
And secondly, my fantastic judges. Even through through all the real life stuff you have to do you manage to find time for me and our contestants, so thanks bunches. I want to thank bobskellington and loveless2 (big E HUGS to both of you) for all your help processing scores and comments through the duration of this contest.

I'm SUPER new to this, I've only done a few edits on paint, I haven't even ventured into gimp yet and I use sims 4 when it looks like everyone who is awesome at this seems to use TS3. Is this cool? Or does everyone prefer if I practice on my own for awhile before entering a comp?
thanks in advance
even if I can't participate I'm gonna lurk cause this is pretty great!

This contest is gonna be good for you to start out in! There may be some in game shots that you might be able to make your own sets for. Think of your career that you can make good pictures in your game for.
I will help you to the best of my knowledge with gimp or paint when doing pictures that may require slight 'copy and paste' (for magazine covers and such). I do often make templates that contestants will find useful for their pictures. ALWAYS here to help all my contestants...
I hope you give it a shot and join us. Newbies are more than welcome.
Great to have u aboard @MissBirdie and @Meeshelby
