Gallery Online

Pet Peeves about pictures on the online Gallery.
  • Why are they taken with the trees all around hiding them.
  • Why are they taken from so far away.

Where do the pics come from that are on the online Gallery? I know we don't take them, because I've come across some of my build, and I know I didn't take the pics that are on the gallery of them.

(I'm using the online Gallery as I am at work.)

    No you're not. The angle it takes for lots and rooms you can chose a 'different' angle. Though it is still limited.

    Pray tell, how do you chose a different angle?

    Yes I would like to know how to choose angle as well. Never realized you could. I usually build my lot, save lot to see how well it fits/can be seen. Then if view is poor I use the save to place in a different lot and try again. But it takes time so would be easy if can change angle.

    @catmando830 @maggiemae8135 Sorry, my bad. You can't do it for lots, but you can for rooms.
    Click on the camera icon, "Select Photo".

    The gallery pics as far as how close and far away they are really depend on your settings(graphic settings) and how closely you build to the front of the lot. There are ways to work around it by putting something on the lot toward the back that is higher than the build, which makes the camera focus differently...but it's trial and error :)
