Early Morning CC Culling

Why yes I am up before dawn and organizing my downloads folder with a fiery passion. Why do you ask? :P Early morning insomnia is the worst, but I do appreciate the extra "me time" (and at least I went to bed pretty early last night).

I'm really getting somewhere with my cc organizing lately. I've decided to take a long, hard, honest look at what I actually use in-game. I'm limiting my Simgaroop hair recolours to one hue of each hair colour (making an exception for redheaded aliens, who look better with bright red, and I'm a little torn on the browns), deleting all the pretty-but-unnatural eyecolours (so no more townies with bright purple eyes), Maxis-match eyebrows (when I only ever use the three default shapes), and eye/nose/mouth shaders/corners, face wrinkles, nail polishes, bazillion glasses recolours, and maybe even some of the freckles (maybe). And that's just BodyShop!

I finally downloaded Homecrafter as a way of weeding out the last few walls and floors in colours I don't use, but I'm a little stuck on the object recolours. I did some hunting around, and the only method of identifying individual object recolours seems to be SimPE, and then deleting them from the downloads folder. Am I missing something? I'd love to be able to view and delete them all in one go.

Whelp... back to work! XD

I have a lot of "city" building decoration stuff that I don't really use very much... And I have some doubles in the window/door completer sets. But pruning is so haaaard... and tedious. :P I recently did a cleanup of my clothing CC, though.

Belladonna Cove has some quite good sims, I think. While EAxis' storylines for the EP 'hoods aren't as good, they did get pretty creative with the sims' faces, I think. They seem to have put a lot of effort into BC, the buildings aren't half-bad, and there's a lot of them!

Mixing and matching is a lot of fun. I tried playing a smaller merge with just Pleasantview and Strangetown, but I found that I very quickly missed having everyone available. So I'll just have to deal with the 'hood being huuuuuge. :)
