OMFG you read my mind. I was just thinking that I would like some of the swimsuits replaced, but not all. Def taking the flowers, both sets of one-pieces (wow the colours are nice), and tankinis. I appreciate what you did with the strappy string bikinis and I'm glad you left the other bikinis alone because I like those ones. I don't have Uni, so no YAs for me.
AWESOME
I basically just like to play uglacies.

Thank you, Phaenoh, for separating each type. I don't have much of a problem with most of the female Maxis swimsuits, but I loved the "suit" replacements you made, with the trim and the nicer colors, so I just downloaded that. Thank you!

Wow, these are all fantastic. Thank you SO much! I HATED the double-clasp ones, I KNOW that style doesn't look that bad in real life. I like the tankinis the way they are (though what you did with them was nice, especially taking that hideous purple-rainbow one and making it grey) but I did take everything else.

THANKYOU!

I've never actually seen the doubleclasp style in real life, so I wouldn't know. I'm much more familar with the cut that I gave them instead, very swimteam race like. I liked the tankinis the way they were too, and i didn't even mind that purple rainbow one that much, but that was one of the ones that I heard people complaining about, so i had to change it somehow. I tried just shortening it, but that didn't actually work, so i borrowed a texture from one of the others and made it black and white.

Thanks for the comments everyone, they really make my day!

Thank you! I cant wait to try these out. So much better than maxis style aka ugly style.
You had eyes to see.

I've downloaded both of the suit packages - they badly needed work done to them and I think you've done a fantastic job. Can't wait to see them in game. Not sure whether I want to change the tanks, but what I love about your work is it's so easy to change my mind and take your changes back out! That's almost as important as the changes themselves! Great work. I have almost all of your stuff in my game and it makes a huge difference.

Thank you so much for these! I was just thinking about replacing the swimsuits...I have all your other replacement packages and they're just wonderful!

Now all we need is decent replacement bras for teen girls...and adult women too, I guess...

I really love your default replacements, I have nearly all of them in my game now! Very much appreciated. I just wanted to say though, deleting my thumbnails folder doesn't refresh the maxis icons for me, I don't know why.. but ctrl+right click on the thumbnail in the game works fine, and is much less of a hassle to those of us who only need to refresh a few of the thumbnails at a time. Thank you again for your hard work in making our clothes look so much better! (by the way, I'd love to see what you could come up with for athletic wear)

Sorry, Athleticwear is fine the way it is, however, I have a game mod that moves some clothes to that category so you have more to choose from, and I'll be doing another one of those sets here soon as well. Have a linky --> http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=241850

Edit: I did end up fixing them. Check it out here --> http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=271327

That's exactly what my case is. I like the flower ones though. I have a bad fashion sense (or lack thereof)

If liking the flowers means bad fashion sense, then I'm in trouble too. They didn't get changed much cuz I liked them 'mostly' the way they were. I just added a bit more color to them! Long live tye-dye?

Thank you for this! Much much better than Maxis' swimsuits! I've never used the double-clasp ones before, now I will.

Best regards,

This is so unfair... How come this one skipped my attention too??? Never mind.
*Gazes at replacements* They are such a remedy for the eyes after watching ugly Maxis textures. Thanks so much Phaenoh

OMG thank you so much for these! I really like every single one of your default replacements! I don't really like to dload seperate clothing I prefer replacements and it's pretty rare that people do that with clothing! So your work is very highly appreciated! *hugs*

Oh my gosh....you are amazing. I've hated some of those swimsuits for so long. You are a sim goddess; in what way should I worship you? Insence burning and chants? Llama sacrifices?

I'm actually quite partial to large things that burn quickly with alot of show. Sparks and showers sing my praises best. lol, thanks for the comment! ...Come to think of it, alot of people have been calling for my elevation to sim goddess status. There is one other thing that I like almost as much as reading comments, its seeing my 'fan' club grow in number, if you like my work, add me to your favorite creator lists everybody!
