How big is your downloads folder?

Mine equates to 56,434,688 bytes (53MB for those less geekier than me.)
Man, I need a cleanout.

My downloads folder is about 66 MB, but about 55 MB of it consists of dissected files that are not loaded into the game.

1.5 GB

And that's AFTER I painstakingly cleaned it out, removing everything I did not actually use.

I think I spend more time downloading than I do actually playing the game!

 608 MB, but only after I took tons of content and moved it to my desktop. It was over 2 GB a few weeks ago.
 For the folks that subfolder I'm curious to know what is it that takes up the most space in your downloads. My biggest folder is hair, it takes up more than half my download folder. Before I did my cleanup, the biggest culprits were custom skintones (all those crazy MATY sims) and some reaaly pretty custom cars.

935 MB. I cleaned out before OFB but then missed lots of stuff and put most of it back in.
The game loads in about 3 Minutes (from putting in the disk until entering a lot) and I guess thatīs still okay. It has to be anyway. Iīm not taking out anything.

I have 859 MB flus a few more files I downloaded but haven't added in yet. I did have 10 GB at one point but I trashed it all and started over trying to be more selective but I still ended up with more junk than I want or need and just don't have the energy to prune it all.

About 1.2GB. Haven't really checked to see which subfolder is the biggest. I've always been pretty selective regarding what to download, but it's beginning to get bloated now. Problem is, I really don't know what to trash and what to keep! Loading times are pretty decent, about 3-4 minutes from startup to entering a lot.

Ok, I'm totally embarrased here. My downloads folder is 3.44GB, 12,008 files, 108 folders. My TSR folder is the biggest, at around 550MB, with several others at the 350MB mark.

Gosh, I really need to do a purge  Shocked

Embarrasing, but, my downloads folder is 3.14 GB, while my Saved Sims folder (where I keep clothes, ect.) is 2.07GB. I have a combined total of about 17,000 downloads. Currently cleaning out all that though, I've finished CAS and have moved on to objects, which is slow going.

Umm, 4.27 GB--
224 MB of which are hacks (but only about 6 of them are awesome).

No wonder it takes so long to load!  Is there a 12 step program for simmie downloaders?  Do I really want one?....

1.67 GB, 4,549 files, and 428 folders here. My biggest subfolder is my SimCribbling folder at 146 MB.  Too many downloads methinks. Roll Eyes At least the game loads completely in just a little over two minutes.

585 MB but I am due for a spring cleaning.  My biggest folders are my recolors as well, I break them into object recolors and paintings so it's not completely overwhelmingly huge.

Wow.  Mine is 1.51 GB, with 5399 files.  Crazy.  But since OFB, my game is loading faster, and I can't seem to get below this number as all the stuff I have is essential, so...

900-some-odd megabytes. I need to go through and get rid of some stuff I never use and put the various "Trashed" items in an outside folder for later use, if I ever decide to do the story I wanted to do.

Only 255 MB. And some of these are .packagedisabled files. I'm pretty picky (and kinda lazy) when it comes to CC.
