I'm still playing around with different types of default replacements, and (as you may have guessed) I've turned my attention to the easel paintings. When I sim, I tend to play a lot of artists, so I can't tell you how many times I've seen that hot pink painting with the girl in the green dress (and the huge hand), or the clowns, or the picasso homage... but it's a lot.
And, if you know me at all, you know I'm very much a Maxis-match sort of simmer, so I've been exploring some options for replacing those same ol', same ol' paintings that we've been staring at since the basegame, but keeping them in a style that will match the game. Sims 3 brought us a whole new set of easel paintings, and also included some real gems that imitate famous works from art history, so I thought it'd be nice to make those available for use in Sims 2.
