Also, one thing I should have done but didn't...  If, after you modify the females to your liking, you find their male counterpart is really goofy looking, don't transfer to the male GMDC.  You don't HAVE to.  You can, in fact, if you want to make the effort (I think it's worth it), fix the males' faces to your heart's content before you transfer the GMDC.  Many of my males turned out looking a little goofy after beautifying their female half.  I could have avoided that.

Agreed. I kept the process almost entirely separate for males and females, in fact.  You can always go back and tweak one or the other to preserve their resemblance before transferring the GMDC's if you need to.

On the ones I'm doing right now (I'm working on a super-set of approximately 40 faces for optimal variety) I have 10 base sims that I'm using as my prototypes. Four are totally created in Bodyshop, six are just sims I like that happened over three or four generations of breeding using my old template sims, Bruna's template sims, and I think ...uh... Starlit's? I think those are the last three sets I was spawning off of. Then I'm taking each of those 10 and doing several small variations...messing with just one feature.

I've got a lot of variety in my current 'hood, but switching templates in and out gets old after awhile.  ;)

Doc Doofus:
How are you going to get forty templates into the game?  I found myself limited to the replacing the existing ones in the game because I couldn't see how to mark a template as a new useable default.

Argon has posted instructions and a proof-of-concept 28th template set in the Bowels of Trogdor.  I tried to make a set but alas, it's a bit too awesome a project for me.  :( )

Doc Doofus:
Ah... that truly IS awesome.  I will definitely give that a try if/when the new Simpe comes out.
