As always, Phaenoh, I love your work. Much less plastic-y looking, thanks! I always thought the Maxis ones looked like swimsuits...so this is much better. They actually look like underwear now!

Thanks everyone! I love reading comments, especially ones that shower me with praise...heh.

And ganymede? That was totally the reason behind everything I've been doing. Personally, I don't download many clothes, so I need to make all the Maxis ones usable. (I sim on a laptop, so too much CC makes it throw fits, so no offense all you clothing creators out there, my compy just can't take much).

I always called these, plastic, too! They look hard and shiny--hardly what you'd want to put next to your most sensitive parts.

The plaid look is much more realistic. Thanks for all your hard work to make the Maxis defaults look a little less ridiculous.

Awesome. I love these. None of my sim guys would be seen dead in something so impractical and shiny looking...

I totally agree, they should hire you what was Maxis thinking?!? I've always hated the Maxis versions, but thanks to you, I can actually use them in my game again. THANK YOU!

I've always fantasized at becoming a Maxoid. Thanks for the comments! I like to pretend that I'm an after-market maxoid, someone not paid by EA, but rather hired separately, and secretly by Maxis, to fix everything that they didn't have time for because EA made them rush through their game. ...hate EA.

Who knows, maybe I'll get a co-op with Maxis. That would be hella-sweet. I am in a design school after all...

Sorry starbucks, but I rarely revisit my work (unless something is actually wrong with it, then you can be sure it will get fixed in a jiffy).

OH YES! THAAAANK YOOOOUUU!!!
I couldn't stop thinking every time I saw Maxis boxers "They really do look like plastic. Ugly plastic.."
And now you've made them un-ugly! THANK YOU! My hero

(singing) no more plastic.. no more plastic..no more plastic

i can use these now!!!!
very cleverly you fix things for me that i loathe, mens underwear is something sad, truly, in the game. I dont go for realism (exept nouks hair that i love, but its not really really real right ) so all this work you do is a great gift. hugs and kisses

Thank you so much. These boxers always gave me a hard time, especially the gray ones. They were so... ICK.

Hooray! I am officially a Phaenoh fan now. The others were right--the boxers looked like swimsuits and were way too shiny, and now they look really comfortable! I wish I could try them out myself

The reference to the Irish kilt-thing-outfit-whatever cracked me up
