@AndyMeadeson@MikkiMikkiMikkiM When I save my rooms I get 4 options when I click the camera. Usually 1 or 2 are good, the rest is bad or boring. In my first builds I didn't know much about how to make my pictures look good, so I feel your frustration. My first room I haven't gone back and changed, because I like seeing how much I have improved since then
What I do now is I try to plan what will be my features of the room and plan the room layout so I can get it in the same shot. When I'm mostly done with my room I 'save' just to see if I have a good photo, I look at what angle is most interesting, the light from windows and lamps (is it too dark?), composition of colors and shapes. Thinking like a photographer basically.
Then I go back without saving to library and do the little changes I want. Add something, move something, remove something- til it feels right. Play around with lighting on the lamps (cooler/warmer), perhaps have my sim light the fireplace or leave a book out to look more lived in. Now the focus is on the 'picture corner', but I try to have something interesting to look at in all corners.

I always enjoy reading all the little things you notice and like in the room, thanks again for the great review.

Congratulations on Young Foodie Bedroom being favourited by Maxis! @emere It is a lovely bedroom! I know that you haven’t posted it in the thread yet, but I have seen it in the Gallery.
Jenny knows what she wants to be when she grows up - the biggest celebrity Sims YouTuber ever, and she doesn't want to wait to get started on her career! Her parents have let her make one end of her room into her studio and she keeps it spotlessly beautiful....not quite so tidy in anything off camera though!!
