      Mine is only 18 MB, but right now I only have a bunch of mods in there. I have a bunch of cc I have never put back in; it used to total several GB.

      I'm at 3GB but I'm moving it all and seeing what I want to keep and what I don't use.

      I also have a Medieval/Fantasy/Victorian DL folder that I'm just building up again. XD

      A lot of mine is default stuff. I found this amazing default website that replaces a lot of hairstyles and clothes from base + packs.

      @Rojo De Guy I have no clue what CCleaner is so I will have to look that up.
      @Rflong7 I noticed there is a ton of medieval/fantasy themed stuff out there. Have fun sorting out CC. ;) Organizing has been nightmare for me.. I remember not caring and just throwing it into the Downloads folder.

      I have 1.32GB. I recently got rid of it all and start again with the cc as I had cc that I never used or liked xD I've told myself to stop downloading but I constantly look on tumblr and MTS and other websites for more cc! XP I'm being strict on what to download now though lol.

      I kinda wanna get rid of some of my cc because my game frequently crashes (yet I get no lag). And my loading times are a bit long.

      Hmm, I don't know how big is my downloads folder because I was paying attention to the size as I was moving it to my desktop in order to find bad cc, but I do know that I had 45,000+ cc in there and the whole UC folder was about 12 GB. Unfortunately I can't check because my hard drive failed on me. :s

      I do know that I'm obsessed with downloading cc! I love custom content! :D

      Last time I played it was 73 gigabytes. It is so horrible I couldn't even more the folder without a lag when I wanted to experiment without it. It takes about an hour to open...And CAS and Bodyshop lag and take forever to open.

      I said to myself "no more than 3GB", but it didn't go as planned :D! I do organize my downloads, so if I have a bad download or bug I can easily find the bad file. I think I have now over 5 GB of downloads and it will be more soon since so many people still create for TS2.

      2.43 GB. Though the type of file isn't usually large, most of it is probably recolors (gotta have those color-matching sets)!

      A few hundred MB. I'm going to start building my own hood soon, so it'll probably double, maybe even triple, in size. I need a lot of different clothes. I hate when my sims wear the same outfits. :s

      8 Gigabytes. I was on the phone with an Origin support guy and casually mentioned about how it takes 15+ minutes for The Sims 2 to start and having to delete the Groups.cache every time.

      Him: "How much Custom Content do you have?"
      Me: "18,000 files.."

      Sometimes I feel ashamed, but then I go and build my sims another clinic and army barracks.

      Before I removed some CCs, it was over 2 GB and it made the Sims 2 game load slower. It's now down to 1.83 GB. Thus loading is better now. If you have a 'Downloads' folder over 2GB, did it make your game loading slower?
