Q & A

Can we enter both CC and No CC sections?
You may enter 2 times, so you may decide which sections you would like to enter into

Just remember you may only place once though overall

If we are allowed to, must they be the same sim?
If you decide to enter both sections please enter 2 different famous people, you do not have to do a cc and non cc version of the same sim/famous person

If we're being judged on photos, why must we upload them?
We would like you to upload the Sims as we want to know to know that the Sim is a new Sim for this contest and that it is your own work

Hints & Tips ]

So we just have some helpful hints and tips for your entries.

Removing the plumbob

we would really like it if you removed the Plumbob off your Sims
to do this you need to do the following in game

Ctrl + Shift + C
type the following command into the blue box
hideheadlineeffects on
enter

This should hide your Plumbob, skill bar and any thought bubbles your Sim may get

Photo's
So there has been a issue on the site with regards to photo's being too big, now we want to make sure we can see your photo's.
So please edit them them before hand to be no bigger than 700 wide

Also variety in photo's is great so think about different locations and areas that would appeal to the character you have created.

The best way I know how to resize your pictures is to use a photo hosting site such as photo bucket. Also it is a great place to go if you want to add a border, or to add text to your photo, or to brighten up an image etc.

So you need to take your picture as normal In game then go to photobucket - you will need to register (if not registered)

Then once there click upload this will bring up a box, click anywhere in the white space, this should bring up your document library, go to electronic Arts - the sims 3 you will see your screenshots album double click the screen shot you want this will upload to photobucket.

If you have multiple screenshots Shift Click the first one you want to upload then click on the last you want to upload this will highlight all inbetween then just double click and multiple will upload.

Once they are uploaded click onto your library select your picture select edit and then you will be able to choose from many editing option. To resize to correct size for the site make sure you edit them to no bigger than 700 wide.

Then Save the image on the right hand side you will see your option links you will need to click on the IMG option this should automatically copy the code
Then paste it onto your post the code will look like this

[**URL=http://s764.photobucket.com/user/loobylou85/media/hocus-pocus.jpg.html][**IMG]http://i764.photobucket.com/albums/xx290/loobylou85/hocus-pocus.jpg[/IMG**][/URL**]

You need to delete some so it looks like this - basically the Url coding

[**IMG]http://i764.photobucket.com/albums/xx290/loobylou85/hocus-pocus.jpg[/IMG**]

Please ignore the stars in the url and img brackets I had to put them in for you to see the coding and not my photo's

Also another important thing is to make sure on the option on this site Disable BB code in message needs to be unticked to make sure your pictures show up

Hope this helps

MizoreYukii · May 2014

LOVE this idea! Fabulous contest Puppy and Looby!

Question time!

Can we enter both CC and No CC sections?

If we are allowed to, must they be the same sim?

If we're being judged on photos, why must we upload them?

That's it so far! I may or may not enter.

*Goes into lurking mode* 8)

loobylou1985 · May 2014

Hi you may enter twice, so its your choice if you would Like to enter once in cc and once in non cc. Also they can be a different famous person for each.

We would like you to upload to make sure it is your creation and that it is a new creation

I hope that helps

loobylou1985 · May 2014

Thank you for all the interest

I also think I would have trouble deciding who to do, at the moment though If I could enter I think I would go for some on the old favourites like Audrey Hepburn, judy Garland, Frank Sinatra

(Only because I have ben reading up on them and they sure did have interesting lifes)

Can not wait to see what people come up with

shadowcat85 · May 2014

This sounds like a lot of fun! Bookmarked!

Sami-Katt · May 2014

loobylou1985 · May 2014

Hi Sami,
We would like the sims to be uploaded as we want to make sure they are new sims and your own sim

loobylou1985 · May 2014

Good Morning today I am just bring you a little Movie Star inspiration

MJacksonista · May 2014

YASSSS I WILL BE DOING THIS! I actually have an entry right now ready in my uploads!!!

MJacksonista · May 2014

I'll do another one though! Hmmm maybe the singing group TLC?? Yes yes I think so

Ivanna420 · May 2014

Hey! :P Evil Puppy!

Also lovingly know as Mutt!

Do you still need another judge? If so, you can count me in. I was torn between judging and entering, but I think judging is still more my speed!

Just let me know if I am considered an acceptable judge and if you need need one.

cmbaker16 · May 2014

hmmm...there's a sim look alike I've been wanting to create...and after making a household of characters from Harry Potter I think this will be a lot of fun
