Challenge 1

Alexa Rohan stood with her hands on her hips before the up-and-coming models. Her innocent rolls of hair bounced against the wind that had gathered around them, and no one made a sound as they admired the scenery. Alexa allowed a slight smirk to overcome her fresh face.

Thanks! Yours is quite good, too. To be honest, if you hadn't posted it, my model wouldn't have had that pose.

The entries are looking amazing. Try to bring more models into the mix...ask around livejournal for more simmers who'd like to join this. The more models the better it is!

I think I figured out what the issue was, I was trying to only take a photo in game and enlarge it. I think I have to take CLOSE UPS and stitch them together, right? For some reason I can resize in paint.net but not in photoshop elements... I'll figure it out, so don't be alarmed if my entry vanishes. I want to do this right.

That's what I did. When I saw a pose I liked, I paused and took a picture of the close up, as close as I could, and then took a picture everytime I zoomed out.

It's hard to make your legs and body match, though. Sims have longer legs than torsos, so your close-up of the legs is not as close as your closest shot of a torso, obviously.

Holy Moly! I think I figured it out! It makes no sense to me that I can cut and paste images into new layers via Paint.net, but NOT in Photoshop Elements. So I cookie cuttered her into paint.net and then tried to clean her up in P.E. *WHEW!*

This is why my degree is in Fiber Arts and not Visual/Graphic design. *pants*

How would you girls feel about me moving this over to the SCF site?

haughtysims February 5 2008, 16:14:14 UTC

If it works for you, there's no problem with me. There might be more traffic for you there and more contestants. You do mean the Sims 2 Community Forum off of MTS2 right?

lindsay_rocks08 February 6 2008, 04:07:39 UTC

No some other forum dedicated to contests. It would be a lot easier there for everyone, even you all. A lot of contestants did not go join here in livejournal because they say it's too "complicated".

How would you like the move? And over there the judges would most likely be able to comment you all. Oh and there's tons of contests to enter there? Should we move it then?

haughtysims February 6 2008, 04:29:11 UTC

It's your call. I would like a link if you do decide to move it. LJ is pretty friendly and I think that it might be cool to start out slow here and show the onlookers what they could expect the next time you do one. :)
