content warnings for my stories include: death, abuse, pregnancy, illness, injury, miscarriage. posts have applicable content warnings. some posts are marked as 'mature' within tumblr and require the appropriate tumblr settings to see.
i do not use AI to write my story posts, to make my cc, or to make my screenshots. this is a slop-free zone. the internet fucking sucks now and i miss 2009.
terms of use: do whatever you want with my cc, just credit me and don't put it behind a paywall, follow the original creator's TOU if what i made was derivative, and don't upload my cc or derivatives of my cc to curseforge while they are currently supporting and funding a genocide.

After many hours and wanting to tear out my hair they are complete!
What are gradients? Why should you use them in recoloring? Can they be used in GIMP? (yes, they can!)Β
All is answered below!
Below the break you will find:
An explanation of what gradients are and why to use them
A written guide on how to use gradients in recoloring
Gradient downloads for use in Photoshop, Photopea, and GIMP
Thank you soooo much @tainoodlesββ without you I wouldnβt have been able to complete this! And wouldnβt even know that recoloring with gradients was a thing! XD
And thank you to the amazing community at the @academiapalettesββ Discord that helped and voted and guided me as I worked on this project.
Ok I may be a Skyrim gamer for the time being but having experience with mod managers for the other non-Sim games I play, having a well made mod manager is a serious life saver. I have high hopes for this! Whenever I feel like playing Sims 3 again

Did you know you can make sims look in a specific direction whilst they're posed?
Hit shift+tab to enter first person mode
Aim the camera where you want your sim to look (make sure your game isn't paused otherwise the sim won't move - you can press 1 in first person mode to set time running)
Hit pause (by pressing P)
Hit shift+tab again to exit first person mode
Voila! Your sim is now looking in the direction you pointed 'em!
A neat little cheat to get multiple uses from the same pose! π€ΈββοΈ

Second Madam Nian [upset]: It is not fair! I donβt understand how we married in at the same time and she is pregnant before me.
Second Madam Nian: I have done everything. I have made sure to keep my inner qi balanced. I have never missed drinking the tonics perscribed by the physician. I mean, what am I missing? I should be pregnant right now.
Fifth Madam Meng [cautiously]: To be honest madam...maybe it is just not the right time.
Second Madam Nian [scoffs]: Not the right time. My father would laugh at that excuse. I must have a child and I must have a child soon.
Second Madam Nian [sighs]: I just wish there was someway I could turn this around in my favor...
Family and friends came together during the weekend at Asa and Esi's home in the Bay to meet the newest family members Nola and Pruitt at their sip-and-see.

Her Illustrious Majesty had never spoken to anyone the way she had Viola. That was clear to Olympia when she held the girl, who she'd never spoken directly to, as she sobbed. The girl whose own mother hadn't shown at her engagement, bridal, or bachelorette parties. Who'd be her daughter in twelve-or-so hours.
It didn't matter that she'd expressed disappointment of her son's choice on numerous occasions, that the girl's actions were in line with society's rumors of the young Queen, or that The Union's honesty could be more isolating than Francesim's protocol.
Olympia was there; her subconcious had led her to the ceremonial room where, due to tradition, the girl would spend the night alone.
She thought of her daughters.
