Where do I find the family thumbnail? You know, the picture of the family that is used as the thumb for your saved game. It was easy to find in Sims 2, but I can't figure it out with Sims 3. I'm on a Mac, but if anyone knows the location it should be easy for me to find. Thanks for any help.

You could try to print screen and edit before loading your neighborhood... Other than that I don't think they incorporated the thumbnails in sims 3... Just another thing they were too lazy to do.

Family Thumbnail....?
I'm sorry, but to properly answer the question, can you tell me what it does?

It is in the save game file itself. On a PC, lol, this in the MyDocs, Saves area you know? The .nhd file itself on your save game. This file can be opened in s3pe (or I guess your favorite Mac equivalent). One of the SNAP resources is the one you are looking for.

So it's somewhere in the saved game file. Thanks. Now I just have to figure out how to get in there and copy the family thumbnail. Or if it comes down to it, I'll just take a screen capture of the main page and do some cropping.

Looked like this (http://thumbs2.modthesims.info/img/3/0/5/0/MTS2_konker069_604835_Goth_Family.jpg) in TS2.
