Okay, you thought my Annie Lennox looks like Molly Ringwald, and okay, I guess I can go along with that. But where do you get Sharon Stone from when you see this sim? Other than the fact Sharon and this Sim both have blonde hair, there isn't anything they have in common. Please be specific in your comments so you can help out the people you are making these remarks to. I would have loved to make my Annie look more like Annie and less like Molly but you didn't tell me what I needed to fix. Judging from some of your other posts to other celebrity simmers, I'm beginning to suspect you just go around finding other celebrities with a vaguely similar type or coloring and say the Sims look like those other celebrities just to make a joke of it. I can take a joke as well as the next person, but on a forum like this, the artists are held to a very high standard and have to show a lot of respect to our downloaders. Your comments and ratings are therefore very important and speaking for myself, I know I take the comments seriously and base my efforts at improvement on them. So this is not the place for people to get their jollies doing hit and run critiques.
If I am wrong in my suspicion I truly apologize. However I feel I had to speak out for this Sim and its creator. This artist has posted a couple of celebrities now and has demonstrated amazing emerging talent, but has gotten some really harsh comments that I think were unrealistically critical. I know the bar has been raised but people seem to forget we're working with very finicky tools and we can't just take a real person and magically turn it into an exact replica in pixel form. It is lovely when it happens but it is rare and even the best of the best can't do it all of the time.
This Sim is an example of tremendous study, effort and careful execution and deserves some respect. No hit and run comments, please. If we Celeb Sim creators are expected to step up our game and show our respect to our audience by putting forth our best effort, I would hope as a courtesy that the people judging our work would do the same and put some real thought and effort into their judgement and remarks, and heck, actually download some of the content they are critiquing, at least some of the time.
What if one little pop could open a world of wonder
So sensory, so satisfying. It's the magic Friskies makes happen every day in so many ways
Friskies, feed the senses. Cat sez eff that, gimme cheezburgers.
