    As long as it's not CC yes that's fine. Some entries have already done so. :D

    Hi mandie - if you look on the front page, we've already got 2 emerald spots reserved. Could you possibly enter with another gem please?

    That sounds great, but we do have 2 diamond entries on the list already. Is there anyway you could adapt her slightly to another gem so that you don't waste your work so far?

    "they must be in CAS studio or in game - no manipulation of images please."

    Does this mean no white rooms and pose players?

    or

    No cropping and college of pics?

    also

    May we add to the story and pics if we come up with more?

    I don't know about the pose player but isn't a white room in game? Quite easy to get with just white walls. Don't see how that would be considered not in-game. I took that to mean no pose-player, no photoshop, no collages, etc.

    ^^This. I don't use pose player and a lot of other players don't, so it's fairer to have it as CAS or in game pics. I don't mind if people crop their CAS pics onto one image, but no fancy backgrounds that aren't from the game (a white room in the game is fine). Adding pics and extra story up until the deadline is fine. Just add them to your existing entry. :D

    Thanks! :mrgreen: I don't use pose player either, wouldn't know what to do with it. :? Just wanted to make sure I could crop the CAS pics into one or two pics!

    If you don't limit to natural gemstones, could always use cubic zirconia in place of diamond. The synthetic is a common replacement visually for diamond.

    That's a great idea - I'd be happy to accept that :)

    And thanks for bumping Sheri!

    Geez! I don't think I have that many downloads on much in my studio. Much less Joelle. Congrats!

    By the way, where is Lana's hair from? The main one she wears?

    My Entry forms :D

    Username: CrysCringle
    Sims Name: Onyx Shadows
    Description: Onyx is a sim who enjoys time by herself. She loves anything to do with art. She's got somewhat of a rebellious streak, since she doesn't like standing in with the "norm" so to speak. She's quite able with a chisel and a hammer, sculpting anything you can possibly imagine. Above all things, this sim is a good sim and cherishes all of her friends.
    Traits: Artistic, Loner, Good, Rebellious, Savvy Sculptor

    Other Information: I would like to say that I recolored just about everything she's wearing. Just to be truer to the black onyx stone. :)
    Her traits reflect that of what the stone is used for and what the color black represents.

    (also, I'll post the entry of the other sim I have after this one.) :D

He doesn't like eating meat, so he eats only vegetable foods at meal times. He really enjoys art and creating art. Since Turquoise is such an elite sim, he does not want to be in the company of other sims that he deems undeserving of his time and attention.

    Aha! I KNEW I liked that hair. It's been sitting in my wishlist. I never spend all the points I have, I like to think about purchases before buying them, plus, you never know when someone might need a cheering up or so. I shall definitely have to get it in the near future.
