The eternal search...
eevilcat:
I use Hairy "Warlokk compatible" Louis skins from Jwilson5 on SexySims2 and SpookyMuffin's default zombie replacement from the same site. Jwilson5 has since added a new default plantsim skin, so I shall be replacing that today. In addition I have the geneticised Enlaya skins courtesy of dewshine (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,7230.0.html). I also use replacement pollination technicians and a replacement 'daddy' plantsim from MTS2 to avoid offspring having butt ugly meshes to drape my pretty replacement default skins across.

Im between defaults atm. What ive always wanted and never managed to find is a default set ranging from realy pail to quite dark ... 1 bellow the maxis S1 and 1 above the maxis s4.
actually does anyone KNOW of anything like the 6 range defaults?
I don't think that's possible? I mean, Maxis gave us 4 default slots and I don't think you can fiddle that.
However, if you were SimPE-literate you could make a default S1 that was very pale, and a very dark S4, then put two more skins wherever you like between the default values. If you make the skins NPC-available, then new townies would spawn with them, as well as b-i-g playables. That link that eevilcat provided in the post above provides some Enayla skins geneticised in this way.
Sleepycat:
I wish maxis/ea had given us more skintones (that we could then replace) and more eye colors (for us to replace too)
I have default replacements for all the skintones, all of them were originally done by Enayla but most of them have now been edited. most weren't even done as default replacements originally.

That's why Alkaloid's "townie-friendly" eyes are among my favorite downloads. Townies, NPC's, and random CAS sims will all generate with these eyes, you can have as many as you like, and the files are the size of normal eye files instead of the size of default eyes.
I'm also on the "eternal search" for new and better skintones. I like Louis' defaults better than any others I've tried. Otherwise, my skintone collection includes a few of Enayla's pixies, a few Oepu skins, a couple of Helaene's, a couple of Lastrie's "glam" set (which I like much more in game than I thought I would,) a couple of Barcelonista's, and one of Hysterical Paroxysm's. Maybe a couple other miscellaneous ones I've forgotten. I like some variety in skintones, but I really dislike the ones that make sims (especially the males) look like they are wearing make-up when they aren't. All the non-default ones are geneticized at either .20, .45, or .75, depending on how dark they are, so that every skintone has an equal opportunity of turning up on a new baby sim.
I really liked Navetsea's skins, but I had an odd issue a while back where sims would occasionally go corrupt and I'd have to flag them as dead in SIMpe to be able to play their homes again. I realized at some point that the two things these corrupt sims had in common were that they were teens, and they were using Navetsea skintones. I deleted the skintones and never have had the problem since. Coincidence? Maybe, probably. I've never heard of anyone else having a problem with the skintones, so I dunno. I suppose it could have been because those skintones are really big files, and my computer is something of a dinosaur. Just one of those mysterious things, I guess.
Indiasong:
I still use navetsea's, i like the body, but I find the face off-coloured. And the skintones a tad similar.
I've realised I've lost my replacement pollination technician, since I didn't have a special default folder at the time. Which one do you use?
