    Finished my school stuff, now I can make my elder. I will have the pictures uploaded tonight, hopefully.
    One question.. how do you make the background white? :oops:

    Go to your paint for the walls and find the one that has no molding at all. Then go and repaint it. Then go to the section under Misc. and with all the patterns there should be this plain white. It works the best.

    Also to make it really white I'd use some invisible lights. Pull up the cheat box using ctrl, shift, 'c' and write in buydebug while in buy mode. A little box with a question marks should come up, and in there in the last section there should be some invisible wall lights. They're great for highlighting your sims.

    I don't have the headshot and body shot on a white background yet, however I will edit this post tomorrow so they will be here. :D

    Username/Nickname: sims3elb/Em

    Model Name: Cassidy Hutson

    Headshot on white background: (see above)

    Bodyshot on white background: (see above)

    Biography: Cassidy Hutson has lived a life with it's ups and downs, like any other. She had a fiancee she never married, and a daughter out of that relationship, that, let's just say, died.
    Now that all is said and done, however, Cassidy has moved in with her daughter's family to live out her twilight years in peace. But that doesn't mean she can't party anymore, right?

    Well I made it all on GIMP. I downloaded some tree/paint splat/spray/bird brushes, and made an overlay of a paper texture.

    Well, I installed Pets last night and my game got messed up. I should have uninstalled my C.C. like a smart person, but nobody's perfect.
    I will try to get it working again so I can submit my model; I'm so sorry for the delay. If I can't fix it I'll tell you and then somebody else can take my place. :(

    Aw, I know how you feel, my game is all messed up >.< Don't worry, sign ups are open until ages away, and if nobody else signs up I will have to extend it, obviously! You still have plenty of time, there is no delay, don't worry about it!

    I love this idea! There are too many competitions that are just for Young Adults.
    Can you please reserve me a spot?

    Username/Nickname- Slahp4 or Slahp
    Model name- Lilyann Kidmann
    Headshot on White Backround- 30iciac.jpg
    Bodyshot on White Backround- 2eqgcyg.jpg
    Short Biography (Optional)- Lilyann isn't your typical grandmother to say. She has modeled since she was 19. Oh she looked great in her days. But with the help of plastic surgery she has revived most of her old looks. Now she is one of the oldest models on the runway. Watch out world!
