After all the dark colors of Halloween, it stands to reason that I'd fall into the other extreme, that of super colorful things
These posters have been on standby for at least a year (but it feels like much longer than that), because I couldn't decide which mesh to use
and the ones I did want to use didn't have recolorable channels. Well, two days ago I managed to find a workaround by cloning a different painting
and replacing its mesh with the one of the poster (which I'd edited the UV map of as well), and it worked!
The images have been extracted from the Fullbuild/Deltabuild packages (I forget which) and combined and edited to make these posters.
[blockquote]These posters are perfect for sims who enjoy contemporary modern art, but also miss the colorfulness of Lina Frunk designs.[/blockquote]
Information
There are 20 poster designs available, on 4 different meshes:
You can have all the posters in your game at the same time, they don't conflict.
The posters have one recolorable channel but using it doesn't affect anything.
The pins and duct tape aren't recolorable, but the pins grab colors from the posters.
I did mention the EPs the meshes are from, but you don't need those either. The posters are basegame compatible.
All the posters can be found under Wall Decor.
You can get an idea of the scale of the posters from the image below:

Small tip: Hold Alt while dragging the posters up and down the wall for even more fine-tuned decorating!

Information
There are 20 poster designs available, on 4 different meshes:
- The pinned poster: the smallest of the bunch, costs $15, uses the mesh from the Island Paradise shark poster.
- The large poster: the largest, costs $25, uses a mesh from the Showtime wall ads.
- The crooked posters (left and right): medium-sized, cost $15, use a mesh from University Life rotated by me.

Install Instructions
Quick Guide:
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.
