The eternal search...
missandrony:
At the moment I'm using Shiny's version of Louis's skins, but I'm trying to make my own set based on some of Enayla's more recent skins. Her pixie skins are way better about the shine, although I'm slowly deshining them.
A lot of people like oepu's most recent skins, and corvidophile2 did a default set here. They're not my personal favorites, but I keep finding Sims they look right on.
And is it just me, or do a lot of skintones look horribly ashen? There are several creators whose skins I like in theory, but in the game make the Sims look all grayish and dead. I correct a few, but I'm too lazy to do more.
Sandilou:
Jordi, my aunt has red hair and red brows and brown eyes - and she, like myself is nubian rather than negro, thank you. (Get with it son!) Her daughter (my cousin) also has blondish red hair. In fact many of my maternal cousins have brown/auburn hair. Possibly due to the fact that one of my great grandmothers was of Spanish origin. My hair was jet black - just like my paternal relatives, when I was younger, but close up you can see I have orangy hair ends, reddish brown streaks - and wait for it - strands of blonde too. Of course, I dye it a darker brown to stop people staring at my hair while they talk to me - I could tell what they were thinking before - "is it a trick of the light or is that a marmalade cat on your head?"
There are nubian children with green, blue and grey eyes. Not common, but they do exist and of course the gene/trait runs in families: I have taught and know of several.
I use a set of default skins that make me happy - they might be Spookymuffin's version of KSK's skins http://modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=215889, but I too am not sure because there is no creator's name on the defaults.

I have ten custom skins, which includes four "normal" tones that match my defaults and give them a little more variety, and six "weird" ones I keep around for special effects purposes (skeleton skin, invisible skin, glowing, Swamp Thing, metallic, and transparent, for the record.)
Those sound interesting. Where did you find them?
Linkies?
Most of them came from MTS2--the link Flamingo offered above will take you to them. Swamp Thing I made myself, and my glowing skin is a tweaked, more "normal" version of the noxious green flourescent one at MTS2 made by substituting a regular AllenABQ texture in place of the green in the file.

I use these by Knightskykyte Non-shiny and better colour than Maxis. My only gripe is the elders have smooth-skinned faces, but I usually put wrinkles on them to combat this.
After reading the very annoying rant from the creator of those, I'm going to put nipples and hair on them just to spite him! :D
I'm with you on that one. Jeez.
notveryawesome:
I use Spookymuffin's default replacements, found at SexySims2, which are more-or-less the Maxis skins, but are anatomically correct and have better shading (IMO, anyway). She also has lighter and darker geneticised skins, that I use as well. I too can't stand shiny or overly shaded skins that look 'drawn' upon.
Edited because I hit a wrong button and sent the post too soon. ::)
