Making a better face skin...
Euphemism:
I was talking about in all the photos. Am I just crazy and it's only there in my mind? :o Yeah, IIRC the square was ever-present, but HP's faces just blew it up about x1000. I had to remove hers just because they bothered me so much.
Here's a photo from my game of a Sim with the Forehead Square:
Unfortunately I couldn't find a more zoomed in pic of it since I only had her skins for a couple of days and noticed the ugly right away. I can't remember exactly if that was with HP's skins or not, but I'm inclined to say that was. It looks more noticeable full-size, which I can't post to the board, but in my game the Square was absolutely HORRID.
I would absolutely LOVE a skin that could fix that, if it be possible.
The Forehead Square was brought up briefly on this thread (though you probably already read it): http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,15233.msg441208/topicseen.html#msg441208

I've seen the normal picture. It has little to no shading at all. The skin files are VERY scattered, you can find them at MTS here:

Also the picture with the white 'sclera' is in there, in the faces. Those are every file(At the bottom, in the attached files) that is associated with the skin :).

I have to ask though, what's with the make up...?

You mean this square on the forehead?
That's HP's default face. I don't know how to extract the game original face, but I kind of suspect it's the same.
I think The Square is just somebody (EA or HP's) idea of highlighting the face.
Yeah, this is just proof of concept. Somebody else should surely be able to do a better job.
I do need to get an in-game pic, not a CAS pic, something in the park at midday.
this looks freaky :)

Hmmm. I'll have to download those skin images and take a look at them. The problem with the square in the forehead is easily fixable--it's just too much light. From people who are working with these skins, though, I've heard that the detail on the originals is nowhere near the quality that is in TS2 but more like TS1 skins.
I totally agree about having shading and any extra make-up-y bits on the skins themselves, because it does end up looking badly in game, and if it's around the eyes the Sim tends to look like they have two black eyes.
I absolutely hate the disparity between CAS and in-game. Every Sim I've created looks awesome in CAS then ends up looking like crap in game.
