How many Sims pictures have you taken in the past couple of years?

I think that I need to move a few Sims pictures into storage. My current TS3 pictures folder has pictures going back to 12 ‎March ‎2017 until only yesterday.

In total there are 4821 pictures! :open_mouth:

My only question is, shall I share them all here? :D

How many pictures do you have? I have a couple of hundreds backed up elsewhere!

The oldest of these pictures from 2017:

    I joined Flickr in 2017 and have over 30,000 pics uploaded there. Since I haven't uploaded all the pics I have taken I can't give you a more accurate number.

    I have over 37,000 screenshots that are still on my computer, from May of this year up to now. All my older screenshots are on a storage hard drive. I have no idea how many are on the storage drive, as I don't keep it in my computer. But I haven't been taking them at any faster rate than usual lately. In fact, I've taken fewer than usual for the past couple of months, because I haven't played as much as usual, due to real life issues, and from taking a 2 week break from my game to work on a CAW project.

    I lost some screenshots but right now I have 35,718. Probably have more on older computers that I never backed up.

    Edit: I took 8,367+ screenshots since 2017 until now.

    Haven't got as many as I do in my real photography folder on my computer, but I think I'm somewhere around 1500-2000 photos on Sims 3 screencaps. I have about 6800 images in my real photography folder. Used to shoot minor hockey as well as wildlife/landscapes...so yeah...lots of images.

    Three. All the rest are done with Photoshop and Gimp. Between that and blabbering on randomly about tech support and mods, I've successfully fooled all of you into thinking that I actually play this game when in reality I never do since I use up all my spare time...uhm...learning how to use Photoshop and Gimp. >:)

    Igazor, no one is going to believe that!


    Probably not. But for some reason it sounded a lot funnier before I typed it all out...

    Huh. Never really thought about that. I take about a dozen or less every time I play - although sometimes more, depending on what happens during gameplay.
    And considering I play on average every other day or every few days (been somewhat burnt out on gameplay lately) I’d say 1,000ish or maybe 2,000?

    Could be more. I usually delete the pictures from my laptop as soon as I post them on my tumblr so I don’t know the exact number lol

    1345 files in my screenie folder that I keep on my external HD, and that isn't counting the screens that are zipped in another 16 files. 1432 in another folder, and I have about a dozen DVD's with backups of my sims folders and screenshots on them, so I don't know how many there are there.

    5,876 screen caps, since I figured out that was a better means of documenting my gameplay than the in-game camera tool. And apparently that was just about six years ago, as of next month. I try to document... but playing comes first.

    I have 3,087 since February of this year.

    I have another 5,011 in an old backup dating back to July 2017 or June... IDK whenever I changed to steam. Anything before that is long since gone so I don't know from there.

    I've more than likely taken at least 5000 pictures and screen prints from my game and I'm taking a forced break to work on Riverview's makeover in CAW.

    About 3 years worth...(moved 20,000 from Photobucket to Flicker last year) BUT in my defense I do stories, so I take a bunch of them looking for the best expressions.

    ...

    Yes, when doing a story I also take more shots but end up deleting most of the the ones that I don't use.

    Every so often I move my screenshots folder down to my D drive renaming by adding a date and then start over with an empty one on the C drive. I've had this computer for a little over 2 years.

    The first year (Nov 2016 - Dec 2017) I have 5229 archived screenshots.
    This year ( Jan 2018 - present) I have 1165 screenshots.

    I haven't been playing Sims 3 much this past year. I didn't bother to count up the screenshots archived on my old laptop and have lost many of those from my original Sims 3 Imac. From March of 2010 to Nov 2016 I posted many shots that chronicled my games and wrote several stories so no telling how many shots that generated. I don't want to think about it. :)

    10601 in total, starting Jan 2015. I thought, I had a problem, but I seem to be in good company.

    The first one. My very first sim in her very first house, after her clueless simmer found out that you can take pictures! :D

    Lol, it never occurred to me to check that but thank you, I have now :D On my current computer, starting August 2015: 15135 screenshots.

    I also looked up my very first screenshot on my external drive (December 28, 2009, I had just started playing the game). My sim Agnetha with Christopher Steel (and their daughter).

    She was married to Stiles McGraw by the way :mrgreen: Sims 3 made me a cheater from the get go.

    And my last screenshot at the moment:

    As for the total amount of screenshots that made it to my stories so far (my legacy, starting May 2010): 12147 screenshots. (so now you'll probably understand why I hate Photobucket and the trick they pulled on us)

    Don't laugh but it is currently 116 and almost all of those are a pictorial record of my CAW project. Between Jan and August 2016 I did have a lot more but I stored them on tinypics rather than my previous laptop. I got this laptop in August 2016 and after I realised I had lost all my stuff on tinypics I moved to imgur. However I do now retain a copy on the laptop. Sad really because I don't bother with many pics and therefore the ones I lost were special ones, some dating back to 2012.
    I no longer use Origin or My Page. You can find me on YouTube or Twitter as Bettyboop711000. You are welcome to contact me as I explore options for a PC sandbox life simulation game.
