      Two new traits dealing with how temperature effects the sims (Loves the Heat & Loves the Cold):
      You can also give your Sims new traits like Loves the Heat or Loves the Cold to make them more impervious to various temperature extremes.

      (that 'new traits like...' bit makes me think there will be more related traits, maybe that's just me)

      During the summer you can have water balloon fights btw :)
      Oh and there's a snow cone machine, a pie (or dessert?) stand, a hot dog stand,and some kind of drink stand? Not sure :p
      During winter you can make snow angels too!
      Gosh I just keep editing :p

      (One of?) The new place to Woohoo are the igloos. ;)

      New romantic interactions: "Your Sims can ask for a kiss beneath the mistletoe, send love letters, use the love tester machine and even create online dating profiles!" - SimGuruRyan

      (Lots of Q&A if you go to Community > Blog > August 2012, if you haven't already!)

      Also found in the Seasons blog: "While there aren't any full new careers, there is a new part-time job that only Aliens can get by becoming a "Test Subject" at the Science Facility." - SimGuruRyan

      Hope I could be of help, your "All you need to know's..." are very useful, thank you! dance.gif

      Edit:: Found here(http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/08/02/the-sims-3-seasons-first-details-and-announcement), Sims 3 Holidays consist of Snow Flake Day(x-mas), Spooky Day(Halloween), and Leisure Day.

      I think there is a new photo booth at 59 seconds where the fall festival scene is. It is an old fashioned camera on the tent on your left side. :)

      Woo! Diving boards and Aliens! I am excited.
      Nothing to see. I don't even care about the forums.

      SimGuruGraham was just joking earlier about how he had to part ways with I&F to come here. So my guess is he will make an appearance at least a few times.

      I was honored enough to be praised by him with my SN thread so I know he knows about it!

      That was awesome :D

      Sims can snuggle up with their crush and get crowned the king or queen of the spring dance, visit the face-painting booth at the summer festival, bob for apples beside a pumpkin patch at the fall festival or head to the snowball fight arena for an epic wintertime battle. The Sims 3 Seasons also introduces new food, fashions and décor items such as French fries, a tanning booth, mistletoe, umbrellas, snow boots and wetsuits, further enhancing the experience and fun of each season.

      -king or queen of the spring dance
      -face-painting booth (summer festival)
      -French fries
      -tanning booth

      I think I only listed things you hadn't added yet :)

      19. You can befriend an alien and use their UFO to abduct a neighbor, invade a community lot, or travel to the stars.

      It allows you to do a special mode in build/buy where you can lay out an entire room the way you want then supposedly save it to plop down easier in other lots you are creating.

      hmmm I noticed a couple of things, one im not so sure

      1.customizable umbrellas(obvious). Theyre probably buy mode items and are optional to use.
      2. new photobooth, in the fall part on the left there was a photobooth of some sort tat looks like a tent, maybe they can go in there and dress up and take goofy pictures.
      3. girl coughing, in the fall part as well i noticed a girl on the right coughing and i have never seen my sims cough, so this could be a sign of getting sick :P

      That is lumped in with new food. If I have enough demand to list different ones, I will definitely do that. :)
