I haven't used face templates until recently. Currently I'm using Zazazu's, which have a nice variation in face sizes (or so it seems to me) - not constant large foreheads, small mouths, etc. Her set also has slightly larger eyes (I think), which I know some folks think is a bit cartoony, but I like it.

What I like is the mix and match. I think I used faces from just about every talented creator: Selzi, Amber, Nailati, etc. I had the perfect set going in my game. Of course all of that, including all the downloads of the full templates, have gone down with my computer. Stupid computer.
Meh. I will have to do it all over again, but because I know where I got the most templates from, it'll not be that hard. The hardest part was/will be finding the odd little here's and there's. Thanks to Amber and the 'abandoned mods' thread I was able to find quite a few of those back.

This is what I do too. There are some Maxis faces I don't mind, so I don't replace those. Then, I put in some replacements for those which I only want modified slightly. Finally there are some I never want to appear, and I choose the prettiest or most interesting version from one of several creators. I think in total, I have borrowed from around 6 different sets.
Doing it this way does expose my game to some ugly babies from face size mismatches, but it avoids the problem of homogeneity. I don't fault any of the creators; it's only natural that we each have an individual sense of what we find pleasing and that's bound to be an overriding influence when you try to make up 20+ faces.
I try to resist the urge to give plastic surgery to any of my sims. I've found that by playing even the ugly ones, I can eventually find something attractive or interesting about them. What I hate about the maxis uglies is that they're all unbearable in exactly the same way.

Yay! Nailati, I'm so happy you're back  . These are quite excellent, I love that the noses still have lots of character. |

These are STILL some of the best templates I have ever used. The reason I came back hunting for them is the set i'm using now just isn't doing it for me. The adults looked ok but the young adults...ouch.

That's odd, don't the YA's use the adult face templates? |

They use the teen texture, at least in some skintones. Face templates are the same as adults.

Normal YA's use adult face templates, but not dormies. |

Normal YA's use adult face templates, but not dormies. Interesting. Just because I'm too lazy to research it: what face templates do dormies use? Teen? (I've spent as little time as possible on Uni campuses, so I haven't had much interaction with dormies.) |

Dormies look to me like they use some hideous predefined templates (for the whole sim, not just the face).

Perhaps the dormies in the standard Uni neighborhoods are pre-made. The dormies I see in the custom Unis I have made look like they use the alternate face templates I have loaded.

The first batch of dormies you get with a newly-added Uni are pretemplated. Future ones are generated normally.

Isn't that the same as with any other type of townie? If you use clean templates you don't get the fuglies.

So, even though I have cookies enabled, I still cannot download these. It keeps saying I am suffering from a java script error. This makes Jelenedra sad.

Thank you very much for these. I have despaired over the ugly Maxian face templates for a long time. I appreciate these from the bottom of my heart.

Hi,
The first face (02) seems to have been taken down. I get an error when I try to download it. I got all the others just fine.
