Look! General stuff!

Look! Specific stuff!
[edit] Screenshots v1
Introductory thing explaining why we want good screenshots, and what the purpose of screenshots is.
Make sure your screenshots are:
Close enough to show detail. |
---|
Take your pics from close up! Don't take your pics from across the lot or far away - this won't show what you've made. Get nice and close, on the same level as the sim.
For things like makeup and eyes, this is especially important! You want to make sure people have a very clear idea of what they're getting, so you can't take your pics from too far away or your creation simply won't be visible. |
Showing all items in the set. |
---|
If you are uploading a set of items with multiple colours or styles, you must include in-game screenshots of every item in the set! You can't just upload a single in-game pic and then show the other colours it comes in, or texture swatches - you need to have actual in-game pics of everything! It may be time-consuming to take pictures of a large set, but it gives downloaders a much better idea of what they're getting. |
And so on...
[edit] Files v1
Blah blah
[edit] Lots v1
In addition to the general requirements, if you are uploading lots you must do the following:
Additional required pics:
Exterior street view. |
---|
Show the entire lot from the outside as it is seen from the street. Show the back of the house from the outside making sure to include any patios or pools. Make sure you show it with all levels visible, and the roof on - and that you do it from a sim's eye view, not high above, from a player's eye view.
Show a top down view of the whole lot with walls and roofs up. This will show all landscaping as well as the roof. |
Floor plans of every level. |
---|
Show a basic layout or floor plan of the lot, ensuring that for each building on it, the entire level is displayed. (This pic needs to present the complete layout and not just a collage of individual rooms.) This is best accomplished with an overhead shot. If you want, you can label the rooms on your floorplan so that it's obvious what function they have.
Make sure that you display the floor plan for each playable level on your lot if there is more than one accessible floor, and be sure to center just the house itself in the picture. |
Comparison Picture. |

If your lot is based on a real building (for example, a particular castle, a particular chain of supermarket, a house from a movie), then please include a comparison picture of the real building. We understand there are some major limitations in the build tools and lot sizes, so it may not be possible to reproduce a building exactly, but it should bear a close resemblance as best as can be achieved with the tools available. |

It may be time-consuming to take pictures of a large set, but it gives downloaders a much better idea of what they're getting. |
In addition to the above, there are some specific requirements depending on what you're uploading:
Lots:
Exterior street view. |
---|
Show the entire lot from the outside as it is seen from the street. Show the back of the house from the outside making sure to include any patios or pools. Make sure you show it with all levels visible, and the roof on - and that you do it from a sim's eye view, not high above, from a player's eye view.

We understand there are some major limitations in the build tools and lot sizes, so it may not be possible to reproduce a building exactly, but it should bear a close resemblance as best as can be achieved with the tools available. |
