I have made all my skins by hand and I've worked really hard on them so if you put them on your own page, uses them as bases for your own work (cut and paste, recoloring and stuff) or in any other way take credit for my work I will hunt you down and turn you in to a frog. (and yes, this goes for objects an wallpapers too and yes, my frog-turning skill is pretty good.) You MAY share the files in mails to friends (I'm sure you would do anyway since I'll never be able to find out LOL) and of course your allowed to use my work on screenshots (without giving credit too) as long as you don't use them for Sim-porn. For avatars and "forum-sims" see FAQ bellow * Do your servants replace the NPC maid? * Do you take request? * Where can I find the heads you're using? * Where can I get the meshes you're using? * I'm a skinner, is it okay for me to use your heads on the previews on my site? * Do all skins come in all colors? * Do all skins come in all bodysizes? * Is it okay to use your skins for my avatar? * Is it okay to use your skins for the sim-me in a "forum-hood"? * Why can't I see any previews of your nude-replacements? * I'm really new to this, Where do I put all the things I've downloaded? * Is it okay for me to link to your site? * Can you link to my site? * Do you want to become my affiliate? * I have a problem with your skins/wallpapers/site. What should I do? * I think your site and your skins suck, what should I do? * But I LIKE sending rude and offensive mails, it's my only hobby. What should I do? * Are you ALWAYS this longwinded? Do your servants replace the NPC maid? No, they don't They're just regular skins and are ment to play with. Even servants need some fun and comfort in their lives. Just make sure to give then high neat points though. (back to top) Do you take request? No, I don't have neither the time nor the inspirations for requests. Sorry! (back to top) Where can I find the heads you're using? All heads used in screenshots are my own and you'll find them in the Heads section (or in themes). But I've used all kinds of meshes for them to make things interesting and you can't download all those versions of the heads. (feel free to try out other meshes on your own though as long as you don't distribute the files) (back to top) Where can I get the meshes you've used Well, I certainly haven't made them myself. *blush* (besides a few themed heads)I tried editing a mesh in BodyWarp once in it ended up as a mix between a sim and a submarine (No, you can't see it, I never saved it. LOL) Seriously though, I give credit under each skin, just click on the name and you'll find the talented mesher. (back to top) I'm a skinner, is it okay for me to use your heads on the previews on my site? Yes it is, as long as you don't pretend you made the heads yourself. You don't have to give any credit but just don't act like they're your own work. You're free to use them on different meshes too for you screenshot but not to recolor them or change them in any other way. I would also love to get a mail, not because you have to tell me, so don't worry if you forget it, but because I'm really flattered and really curious. (back to top) Do all skins come in all colors? Yes, unless otherwise is stated and as long as we're talking clothes here. The faces only come in one skin color and the same goes for the skins you find in themes. Even though I only show a preview of one skin color the zip includes all three of them. (back to top) Do all skins come in all bodysizes? No, each skins only comes in the size shown and no, I'm not taking requests to change a skin to the bodysize you want. I know, I'm mean! LOL Most skins are made for fit sims but there will be fat and skinny skins mixed in between them too. (back to top) Is it okay to use your skins for my avatar? You like my work THAT much? Wow! I'm flattered! :o) But I want you to ask me about this first to avoid a bunch of people using the same head. (My skins aren't THAT popular yet so you will most likely get a yes). (back to top) Is it okay to use your skins for the sim-me in a "forum-hood"? See question above about avatars. I'm really flattered but pleeeease ask first. And after all if you ask real nicely you might even get permission to include my skins in a zip and distribute it (even on a small site for the sim you) as long as you give me credit. If I've got time I could also help you rename the head if you want to use it on another mesh. (back to top) Why can't I see any previews of your nude-replacements? Some people find even nude cartoon-figures offensive or dangerous to children. I don't agree with this at all but I respect it and I want everybody to feel welcome here and feel that it's a "safe" place to surf. I know, I COULD have an "Adult-section" but then people would expect me to have more adult-related things than just plain and innocents little nude-replacements and that would give everybody and imprecision of my site that isn't true. You just have to download the replacements to see how they look. (back to top) I'm really new to this, Where do I put all the things I've downloaded? Unzip everything OUTSIDE the game and then move Skins (.bmp, .cmx, .skn) to Maxis/The Sims/Gamedata/Skins Wallpapers (.wll) to Maxis/The Sims/Gamedata/Walls Floors (.flr) to Maxis/The Sims/Gamedata/Floors Objects (.iff) to Maxis/The Sims/Downloads Subfolders don't work in the Skins folder but I recommend that you create a subfolder called Fia's Sim Notebook in walls, floors and Downloads. (back to top) Is it okay for me to link to your site? You want to link to me? Yay! Of course it's allowed! :o) You can use one of the buttons or the banner below or just a text-link. Just make sure that you use the right URL http://fia.just.nu (back to top) Can you link to my site? No! (I've said it before I'm mean! LOL) I don't like all the work involved in keeping a link-page and I hate having to turn some people down because their work is ugly (of course I'm not talking about YOUR site) so I've decided that it's easier to say no to everybody, no matter how gorgeous their work is (NOW, I'm taking about your site). (back to top) Do you want to become my affiliate? Do I know you? If your answer is no so is mine. But if we know each other and you think I have every reason to like you feel free to send me a mail and ask. Beware thought that I'm very picky with my affiliates, so don't feel sad if you'll get a no. It might just be that I know too little about you. (back to top) I have a problem with your skins/wallpapers/site and so one, it isn't working. What should I do? PLEASE send me a mail and tell me a bout it (a nice mail, thank you, I just throw away the rude ones) so I can fix the problem. I try to test my work and my site as much as possible but if there's still any problem I really would like to know. (back to top) I think your site and your skins suck, what should I do? Easy solution: Try going here www.google.com and type in "sims", "skins" and "download". Hopefully you'll find something you'll like better. Hard solution: Download Paintshop Pro and SimPose and create your own skins, than make a site of your own (it's really simple all you need is Notepad and some HTML knowledge) and THEN invite me there (in a nice mail, I still throw away the rude ones) and show me how you think things really should be done. (back to top) But I LIKE sending rude and offensive mails, it's my only hobby. What should I do? I'm sorry to hear this, you're probably a very sad and lonely person. Have you tried talking to a professional? If you just like to hurt people, I suggest that you start with boxing instead. (back to top) Are you ALWAYS this longwinded? *blush* Me? Longwinded? Where did you get that idea? Actually, when I write in my own language (Swedish) I'm probably even worse. LOL (back to top)
