Oh my goodness, what a pain it was to get this one shot.
I decided to use Sims 2 since I wanted the special architectural features in the Mansions and Gardens pack to create the Munsters mansion. But I realized not long into it that my beautiful home wouldn't be photographed well since I had to get so close up to capture the characters features.
The resolution is high since it's Sims 2 and even my under-powered laptop can handle that old game well. Well it makes things harder to see since everything is so tiny on my 15 inch laptop screen.
Next I hadn't played Sims 2 in quite a while so I forgot that even with self determination off these guys are still antsy, needing to pee, shower, eat, play and complaining every three seconds if they don't get it. Not like Sims 3 where if you take them off self control they are much easier robotic-like subjects for your photo session.
Also, pesky neighbors would get in the shot and it seemed I lost daylight awfully quickly (and I couldn't remember if you could turn off time like I think you can in Sims 3). So, I went with a nighttime pic which actually works out well since I was able to set up lighting to give the photo a more scary look.
Other than Marilyn looking a little perturbed (which she shouldn't, she was always so sweet and innocent, if not sad since she thought she was the ugly one, remember?) I guess it came out alright.
