Title: Collection Icons
Post by: shastakiss on 2007 June 09, 02:15:38
First post, first upload - nervous!  :-[

Thanks to SaraMK's post here (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,4629.0.html), I made some of the game images into collection icons  :)

(http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/snoopy1625/sims2icons_screenshot.gif)

The zip here (http://simfil.es/168776/) contains 3 smaller ones :
Interests - speech bubbles like the sumo wrestler
Catalog - all those 2-tone blue images
Color - wants/fears/memories, turn-ons, etc.

I learned a lot and there are a lot of them! :P Any jpgs you like go into the My Documents > EA Games > The Sims 2 > Collections > Icons folder.

I'm on a mac and don't have SimPE but thanks to its creators and SaraMK, and also Kimberly's info here (http://kimberspace.mattwork.potsdam.edu/sunnisims/projectO.php/).  ;)

Let me know how/if/what I did wrong  ::)

The media File archives work okay, but the three you attached to the post are empty.

ETA: The icons work fine in game- they all show up. Thanks!

0k zip files are not terribly useful. Please hang up and try again.

Hi! I'd like to know how do I put it in Collections folder... Must I put only the ".DS_Store" into this folder or this archive and the folders extracted together?

No, the DSStore files are attribute files used by Mac; just delete them.

OK... and the folders I extract... is only put them in Collections' Folder? I'm saying this 'cause usually they come with ".packege" and there is no one there with this extension.

It's because they are just icons for the collections, not actual collections... hence why they go in My Documents > EA Games > The Sims 2 > Collections > Icons
