Hi all, I'm new to Sims 4 and the Sims franchise entirely. I actually tried to use Sims 4 Studio, but for some reason, it wouldn't work on my computer, and I couldn't get it to work (I'm also a Mac user). I'm also a Child of the 80's, and I have been able to find custom content for various favorite 80's cartoons of mine (Strawberry Shortcake and My Little Pony, and I was shocked to find 80's My Little Pony!) but I could not for the life of me find anything that was 80's Care Bears. I was able to find CC for the more recent Care Bears, but I want 1980's Care Bears (it's what I grew up with, I'm a very picky person). I was wondering if someone could take two pictures I found and make framed pictures of them, so I can put them on the walls of two of my Sims' bedrooms, because I based them on kids from two "episodes" of the 80's series (I use the term "episodes" loosely, because they started out as two animated specials before the Care Bears ever even got a series to begin with, but that's another story). The pics are located here on Google Drive (I hope the link works) Care Bears pics
Thanks in advance!

This is a simple request. Which frame would you like? (Does it matter or will any of them do?)

I don't know what any of the frame styles are, to tell you the truth. I was thinking of a simple, thin black frame. The bedrooms belong to two children, so they don't need anything fancy. Thanks!

If you go into the game and look at the build items, look at portraits and paintings. Then remember the name of the painting with a frame that you like for your Care Bear pics and let Rosali know. Personally I would look at the more brightly colored basic ones OR...make a cool poster that has no frame. Care Bears and My Little Pony were some of my favorites.

I really appreciate it.

Bumping this up because it's been awhile since I heard from rosali412 about this request. I actually tried to do this myself, but Sims 4 Studio crashed every time I tried to import the picture back in (I was using a tutorial, too, one from this site, link ). I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, and I really want some vintage Care Bears posters for my Sims. EDIT: HEY! I think I did it! I might have to do a little more tweaking, considering the darn thing was huge at 512x512. I used one of the brackets on the keyboard to size it down, though. And it doesn't look TOO squashed or stretched. That was my main issue, trying to keep it in it's original dimensions (or as closely as possible) without it looking squashed or stretched. How'd I do?

I think it looks great!
I would have loved a poster like that as a kid.

Well, I did it! I managed to do this simple thing myself, and it only took . . . . . five hours to complete (mainly because I added about 19 more pics to this, lol!) Here's the link if anyone wants some vintage Care Bears goodness for their own walls. It's on Google Drive, because I didn't know where else to put it. Unfortunately, I used a pic from an expansion pack as my base for this (the pic was called Starlet Shores, and I think it's in the Vintage Glamour Stuff pack), so sorry about that. Though the pics wound up a little big for my walls, but that's okay, because there's always the use of the brackets on the keyboard to make them smaller if need be. Vintage Care Bears GoodnessThough I seriously doubt I'll try anything more difficult. Maybe I'll do Popples pics for my walls next, now that I've got the hang of it (that was a short-lived cartoon series from 1986. What can I say? I'm a Child of the 80's).

POPPLES! LOL, yep, that's exactly what I was thinking of. Glad to see it's not as obscure as I initially thought (*sigh* I loved being a kid in the 80's and early 90's). Don't know if I'll do it, though, I have the attention span the size of a gnat, thanks to my ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and I HATE it with a passion that you wouldn't believe!)
