That Ol' Brick Wall - Newbie needs help.

[Jenexell]

Hey all.

First off, I hope this is the right place for this. If not please forgive my ineptitude and point me in the right direction.

so my question

I'm a complete newbie at the whole creating thing, (although I've been downloading all the awesome stuff here for some time now) and I'm confused about something.

I've created some recoloured clothes, and I'd love to upload and share them but I need pictures of them.

Often when I see clothing for download the preview pics have the models standing in front of a brick wall (sometimes there's a free standing mirror too!) Where is this brick wall? Is it part of a third party program? built into the game? bodyshop? I am being completly blind and/or stupid or have I genuinely not downloaded something?


Help please?

You are probably thinking of sims whose pictures were taken in CAS (create a sim).
When you play the game and make a new sims, CAS is where you make them.
If you want to, you can change how CAS looks with CAS replacement packages.
We have several on MTS2, look in Downloads, and search for CAS.
You should also take a look at these picture taking tutorials:
