Awesome job, thank you

Yes! Yes! Yes! I needed this sooooooo bad!!! TY TY TY!!

Thank you, I like my sisms to have the different looks and this should add to some of them.

That is exactly why I enjoy these skins so much, it is a great way to add some diversity to the gene pool for those of us who stick to the realistic side... but including elves because they are real. Legolas is totally my boyfirend, I swear!

These do look really good. thank you.

oh men! this is just great...
how come these won't show up in bodyshop? Can anyone help please?

Finally another with same problem as I have.. I havent been able to view either one of these freckled skins in bodyshop, all other skins I downloaded yesterday work normally.

I'm having that same problem too. Is it because it's a rar file? Do I have to put it someplace besides the downloads folder?

Thank-you so much, I've been looking all over for something like this.

Ah.. I found the WinRAR tutorial! Duh!

DMFirebow, you can see this skin in bodyshop or sims then? I would really like to use these freckled skins.. but cant find them in bodyshop

i am having the same problem with .::TSN::. with this skin

i cant see it in the sims 2 or the body shop :confused:

i also tried it on another computer too, does the region of the game make a possibility of this not working?

I am not sure but it seems that some are having trouble with the .RAR file extention. .RAR is just like a .ZIP and it needs to be extracted, the rar dosen't go into the downloads folder but the stuff inside it does.

1.) Go download WinRAR if you do not have it. It is free, go here and download either of the top two which is WinRAR 3.42:
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
2.) Install it.
3.)Read this thread, the WinRAR tutorial:
http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=40327
4.) Read my nice readme and put the .package into your downloads folder!

Hopefully that is the reason behind the problems, seems many (including the mods that approved this) were able to get it to work soooo. :Shrug:

sigh... the thing is still not working

i had WinRAR before though but an older version, i pretty much knew how to use WinRAR before i came here (i learnt myself :D)

ya so the package files are in the downloads folder... i dunno whats wrong

Hrmmm... has anyone bee able to play with these in game? I have never heard of region issues effecting skins but who knows, if you are still having trouble somethingodd PM me and we will figure something out.

OMG YES! IT WORKS NOW!

those packaged sims from the sims 2 site works now :D

the skins look great too

a top rating for you

Why'd it happen anyways? I dont get it..... did the file come with any thing else?

Message to Geekess: I've noticed you had to re-upload your freckled sim skins because of the Maxis web crash. I had to re-upload my freckled sim skins too. I just wanted you to know that when you re-uploaded them, I re-rated them both 5-Stars. Yours are some of the best, but I can't say better than mine cause I'm a bit biased. Keep up the good work though!

I've always put my downloaded lots & clothes & items in my EA Games/The Sims 2/Downloads folder, and the eyes and genetics and things in EA Games/Bodyshop/Downloads... Is that right, or should I be putting them somewhere else?

thank you so much for doing this finally my sims can look a little bit like me lol with real freckles great job

that's hot

Wow! I had the same problem you did, thanks for solving it!

I have tried everything to get these skins to show up nothings working i even tried downloading them from the sims2 site and they keep saying my game is not registerd when i am i can't win some body please HELP!

Thank you so much! I've been looking for freckles for quite a while and your skins are lovely; I got them through the official site since .rar downloads don't work for me. Thanks again. :D
