I love putting tattoos on my sims, but one kind I haven't seen for download are name tattoos. I really wanted one to go on my Mini Me's calf, so I decided to make one


In my usual fashion I got carried away, and ended up making eight more!
I hand drew all of these with pen and ink, then scanned them in and retraced them in photoshop.
I know a lot of people hate having real words in their game, so I made them using "simlish". Writing cursive simlish is way harder than it looks by the way. =.='
There are five "name" tattoos (including the daluved1..one).

Two tiny tattoos on the hands and feet.

And two tribal tattoos.

Each tattoo has its own custom thumbnail (see screenshots).
I tried to get these to mix-match as much as possible, without taking up too many accessory slots. So, each type can be paired with another, but two tattoos of the same type will override each other. For example, two back tats cannot be worn at the same time, but a back tat and a chest tat can. As soon as a better way to get accessories to overlap comes along, you'll have to live with that

These can be used by males and females, teen and older. I have them set so they will not show up randomly on townies, if you wish to change that, then be my guest.
The base color of all the tattoos is black, however some tattoos allow for a colored outline. If you don't want the colored outline, then simply color the whole thing a dark grey/black.
And just about with every tattoo out there (I think) they won't stay on when your sim gets nudie


Since I actually drew these myself, I ask that you do not redistribute any of these without my permission. That includes the exchange and paysites. You may, however, upload with lots/sims as long as you link back here.
If you want to change the placement of a tattoo, then you can download the Textures.rar for all of the original scanned in designs, then create a new CAS part as you see fit. The designs are in .psd format (Photoshop), but I believe you can open them with other imaging programs as well. Anyhoos, all I ask is that you do not reupload a tattoo with my design

Enjoy!

Install Instructions
1. Click the file listed on the Files tab to download the file to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file. Now you will have either a .package or a .sims3pack file.
For Package files:
1. Cut and paste the file into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Mods\Packages folder. If you do not already have this folder, you should read the full guide to Package files first: Sims 3:Installing Package Fileswiki, so you can make sure your game is fully patched and you have the correct Resource.cfg file.
2. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
For Sims3Pack files:
1. Cut and paste it into your Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Downloads folder. If you do not have this folder yet, it is recommended that you open the game and then close it again so that this folder will be automatically created. Then you can place the .sims3pack into your Downloads folder.
2. Load the game's Launcher, and click on the Downloads tab. Find the item in the list and tick the box beside it. Then press the Install button below the list.
3. Wait for the installer to load, and it will install the content to the game. You will get a message letting you know when it's done.
4. Run the game, and find your content where the creator said it would be (build mode, buy mode, Create-a-Sim, etc.).
Extracting from RAR, ZIP, or 7z: You will need a special program for this. For Windows, we recommend 7-Zip and for Mac OSX, we recommend Keka. Both are free and safe to use.
