Thank you. This is such a lovely idea. I really wish there was an easier way than recolours to add photos from screenshots to frames.

Thank you so much for sharing.
I had gotten tired of the usual photographs and I didn't feel like doing recolors, these will be very useful to me!

That's a very great use of the premade sims 2 renders, simple yet very lovely addition for their homes <3

Thank you! And that's great, I'm always happy when I find something that was on my future project list.

Thanks! And I agree, I would really like that as well. One thing I know of that comes close are DeeDee's Changeable Sim Portrait (recolours here, here, and here). The way it works is that you click on the picture frame and then you can add the UI portrait of any sim on the lot. So that one doesn't really allow for group pictures.
Then there is also the the camera from University and the picture taking from Bon Voyage. This default makes those frames recolourable for some more variety. But still, at least the university camera requires that you make an additional sim selectable so that you can get your whole household into one picture. It would be great if there was an in-game mechanic to just put any screenshot onto any picture frame that is in-game. But that seems like quite the impossible task.

Thank you for the sweet comment! I also think it could be a nice addition to make things feel a bit more lived in.

This is a great tool for storytelling, will most certainly be using these in my renovations of the premade houses.

That you! I always think about this when I restart a premade hood, but I'm too lazy to do it myself. 😅 These will get a lot of use.

The horizontal mesh displays in-game camera screenshots, and the vertical does the same OR it can pull from the custom paintings folder
