1.10 gb. I've been trying super hard to downsize but I really want everyone not to have the same furnishings. I did cut it back from like 6000 downloads to about half that though.

edit: wiped clothes and hair folders clean then re downloaded hairs i use and almost all and only migamoo clothes and have gotten in down to 820mb

289 MB. Oh yeah, do I have self-control or what?

It's so hard to have all my Sims in mostly Maxis clothes, though! I think that's what I miss the most. I used to have so many downloads that my game hardly worked, but when my computer was reimaged I looked at it as a chance to start over. The game now loads in about five minutes, as opposed to about 30 minuted before the reimage.

My bodyshop downloads are now 1.04 GB 2676 files 278 folders.

It took 3-4 days clearing them out and organising folders , adding pics e.t.c Before that it was double that size and a complete mess.

Now i have to clean out my buy/build main folder.
Which is currently 1.27 GB 4.795 files.Need to cut that to half and organise it, but that will take time .

You will find my older and newest creations here

I admire all of you with less than 1GB! I'm very picky about CC quality-wise, but I have 1.85GBs in my game right now. With my new computer (yay for new computers!), it loads just fine in a couple of minutes, so I'm not planning major cleaning-out anytime soon.

I only have a couple subfolders named for creators (migamoo and HP), but I really should just rename my "Sims" subfolder to "Keely's Sims and Stuff"

116MB (: after a reinstallation. Just a bit of make-up and the defaults (skins/eyes). I'm very happy with it so far... Maxis stuff isn't that horrible.

Right now I have 46 Downloads which takes up 18.8 mb. I have about 9 hairstyles for the ladies and like 1 for the boys!

I got one livingroom set which is amazing! I got a modern plant and a bedset. And I have two clothing pieces for the ladies 'n' none for the guys! I may download a nursery and some stairs but I'm a little bit busy see?

Well what I am about to tell you make me a tad anal....

I have every folder marked with the creators name. I am diligent about it. This way if I want to remove a folder because I am not using the items inside I can store it outside the downloads folder and in my *Sims Stuff* folder.

This being said.....it's the only place in my life that I am truly organized, this in turn makes me insane, but there you have it.

Sim Stuff, it's very succinct isn't it? I couldn't think of anything better though.

... not enough. XD I never have enough. And heck, it's free, so why not!? (addict much??) I have 2.08 gigs, 7,122 files. Which is divided up into well over 300 folders.

And I can find any object in my downloads folders at the drop of a hat. *happy sigh* The wonders of organization....

I too have a SimStuff folder on desktop. It mostly has pictures, stuff I've made, and SimPE and the Compressorizer.

I have a Sims Stuff folder too.

My Downloads folder is 2.07 GB. I've been trying to keep it under 2 gigs. I'm quite picky about what goes into my DL folder and even pickier about what stays there, so lately I haven't downloaded anything that doesn't look great, as I'd probably end up deleting it anyway...

I'm also quite organized with my downloads (I have 149 subfolders), I hate not knowing where a certain file is or what it is. I try to rename the files that don't have a proper name, so that I'll know where I got it or who made it. I also have an Unsorted folder, where all the new stuff goes, and if I'm happy with how it looks in game, I'll put it in the right folders.

My dad says I am an control/organisation freak, but I can't help it.
