    Hi all of you simmers that would like to make your own dvd covers from mine or from the template. This is the printing margins we used. It was a lot of running to the printer and computer to get them right, so thought I would save you all the trouble LOL

    Hi Simmers just realized that the paint colours are for New Zealand only. So I took a photo of the mix instructions on the back for you all :)

    I could make expansion packs for you, I could always scan mine and upload them. I prefer to purchase the expansions as the disks install so much faster, although I think the last one was only a code mmmm. But yip give me till this weekend and I can see what I can do for you. I can either scan them or just search for them online and post them for you here. I will see which is best. Each expansion has its own look colour wise and just layout wise so its not like my gamepacks and stuffpacks that has a template. I think it will be best if I scan mine for you and others that might like it :)

    Would you scan and upload your EP covers? Please? I bought everything on Origin and I'm looking forward to making all these for my collection.

    Hi all, have not forgotten about you, I bought a scanner and it was useless so is thinking of ideas to try and do this for you, googled on the internet and not much came up anyways. I have my thinking cap on and will get back to you guys as soon as I have an idea <3

    @maumau and other simmers using the covers, here is the My first pet stuff cover. About the expansion packs, I have no idea how to do it, still thinking on how I can do it for you guys.

    Those are really nice I love them! You should totally put little sticker prices like they do in stores that would be cool, though I know not everyone likes to keep the price tag on their games

    lol that would be cool, but we all pay differently in each country so that is why they are not present, but you can always copy and paste your own ones on ;)

    @Joosei_Squad , @DivieOwl and Simmers that would like them.
    I went to our Warehouse Stationary and had my expansions scanned. One is a bit skew so will need to be cut out straight, but the others seem ok. You guys will just have to figure out the sizing and printing margins sorry ;) Here they are :)

    Can you make a template for the exp too ? , pretty please

    its a bit hard since each expansion as you can see is differently coloured than say stuff packs that are just green and game packs that are just blue, I could try and make one which is white with black border, but save it as a png image and then you can just use paint and drop a colour in there accordingly, don't mind doing that for you, but it won't be a good template like the stuff and game packs that can be reused over and over.
  • mcruddmcrudd Posts: 11,696 Member
    ok so I thought what I could do is use my current template and just design my own type of expansion cover based on what I allready have. It will not look like the maxis ones, I can then also make the actual expansion covers and upload them. I am just currently busy with a collection update, once done with that then I can start chipping away on the new expansion covers.

    So this is what I did. Its based on my stuff and game packs one. Its white so it can be filled with whichever colour required, as I said expansions are different from stuff and game packs. I will do an eg when I get time, but here is your template ;)
