Poll: Substituting Recolors
witch:
Yes and no. :D
I'm envious that people have the time to do this stuff. Sometimes I spend ages organising sim stuff, to the detriment of actually playing. Then I wonder if gaming has turned into a chore instead of fun. But then, the people who are attracted to sims tend to be micro-managers and strategists anyway, so it kind of fits the personality profile.
Plus, there's something very satisfying about having things done and right.

Go for it. Part of my cleaning project included editing approximately 70 outfits to remove painted on jewelry (hate it, it looks flat and crappy and unreal). It took a few hours, but it was totally worth it. I used to pass over the items because I hated the jewelry but didn't want to delete them because otherwise they were nice. Now everything's usable.
Heh, I've done that before too, and I may do some more one of these days. Though I often solve the problem by just not downloading something if it has attached jewelry. ;)

Unfortunately, clothing creators tend to be overly creative about their screenshots, so it can be hard to tell if something is a part of the clothing or just an accessory put there to sprite things up.

Interesting. If an object looks yuck I'm unlikely to download it in the first place so I don't think I would save much by weeding out/replacing undesirable textures. I'd much rather remove large swathes of crap that come with the game that I'd never use in a million years. Floor and wall coverings are amongst the biggest offenders. It would have been much better if EAxis had designated one default for each type of inventory item (to prevent crashes) with the option to remove all their others. I know that view is completely at odds with their build and share policy but I make my own stuff for myself and download CC that I like. It looks like we're all egging you on to do it, so good luck!

I won't either, but if I then later see a bunch of nice recolors for it, I'll download the mesh with the ugly texture so I can have the pretty recolors.
