Sorry for the delay!

Oh Trepie - they are gorgeous! The mom and the toddler....

I am used to Pollination Technician, and Johnny, from Strangetown, and only once I played Pascal, only to see what kind of Alien baby he will have. I didn't like the results at all - she was like Pollination, lol.
And I don't like Johnny at all, although he has human eyes. His skin is terrible!

With your aliens I could compromise! Did you make them, or Gloam? (I didn't download the Vamp lady, but she is very beautiful!).

And I killed a nanny because she annoyed me.

Who hasn't?

You could always then add the lovely decorative object pictured below from Bootsbrisket

But that nanny was the only sim I killed on purpose and didn't bring back.

I had a zombie nanny once. Brought her back that way then moved her back nto the npc household. She was interesting, seemed like she got more work done than when she was alive too lol. She was slow as hell though.

Motoki, I think that's the funniest picture I've seen yet.     I love the smustle too.  And Gali, you have to be the sweetest, kindest person I know.   

Brynne, your pics crack me up.  Next time I'm going your way I'll PM you and maybe buy you lunch or something.

Sounds like fun, Chris! I may have a sim-bender hangover, though. Usually do. Just warning that I may be a little "spacey". 
Seriously, do let me know when you come to hotlanta next!

[Ms.Perception]

Thanks so much for the skins. I've so been looking forward to this. 

And Brynne, I loved the pictures, though I have to say I love Motoki's dead nanny pic a little bit more.

The mother there is actually Stella Terrano.  A premade maxis sim in the student bin for La Fiesta Tech.  Her facial structure is rather human for being an alien though, which is why I like her rather than those flat faced Polination kids.   

Lola and Chloe Singles are also rather human looking for being aliens.  But in my experience they always produce human children when you pair them up with a human.  Stella has always made alien children no matter who I paired her up with.

I managed to upload the Laverwinkle Alien Skintone as a .rar... Now we just need to wait for angelfire to finish the job (it doesn't automatically update when you publish something new it seems). Keep a look out for that .rar file link.. Hopefully it won't take too long to show up.

Has anyone been able to get the alien Laverwinkle skin yet I keep getting the corrupted zip file that was uploaded first.I wonder how long it takes for the files to be replaced.

Bravo! I have no clue why the link hasn't updated yet.. Damn Angelfire. Apparently it's uploaded, just not updated. 

[MsMaria]

I'm looking forward to the fix as well. I keep getting a 404 error. Thank you for the ones that work though, they are awesome. You really did a wonderful job!

Just enter http://www.angelfire.com/ego2/virtualdaydream/DylanTK_DefaultAlienLaverwinkle.rar into your website-broswer-window-thing (what the heck is it really called?) instead of clicking on the link. Angelfire doesn't allow direct linking, but if you put it in manually, you'll get right to it.

[MsMaria]

Oh, thank you! I should have said I got the error when I clicked on your link at the site, but this solved the issue. Can't wait to try it out!

[Andygal]

thank you soooo much! That worked prefectly.

[Ms.Perception]

Thanks. It worked for me as well. Love the skins. Going to go play now.

Thanks for making the effort to get these up. I'm fond of my green aliens, but that lavender is so pretty I don't think I can resist. It looks like the features of your default replacement Pollination Tech are better than the one I currently have, too.

Address Bar! *smacks forehead* I couldn't remember that for the life of me, so thanks. Thanks for the compliments too of course. 

I have no clue why Angelfire hasn't updated that link yet.. I checked and rechecked my design to make sure I hadn't forgotten to change the link. Not so, it's undoubtedly their mistake.

[Brynne]

Hmmm...I've always called it the website-broswer-window-thing, myself...

[Andygal]

Gloam, just curious/nosy, but how old are you?

[GloamingMerle]

Gloam, just curious/nosy, but how old are you?

Old enough to have sex, but not old enough to drink. 

I'm 20.

[SciBirg]

Just checked the alien skintone in my game.

Beautiful!!!

Thank you very much, GM!

[Dark Trepie]

Finally just managed to download this (had to poke Angelfire a bit with a pointy stick).  And I think this calls for a before and after pic!



I'm loving the skintone.  But is there a way to get the regular black eyes back?  I went and took the defaultalieneyes file out of the downloads folder.  But when I went back into the lot she and the other aliens in the family still had the violent swirly eyes.

Say what!?    If it's truly out, it's absolutely impossible for them to have it anymore, since the file does not 'exist'... Where did you move it to? Considering the nature of it, the game might be reading it even though it's not in the downloads folder (I don't know, just a guess)... Did you just look at their toolbar profile pics? Because those will remain the same until you change their appearance, swirly eyes and all. The sims themselves should be changed right away. I'll investigate on my own right away.

Update: Ok, I just moved the alien eye replacement to my desktop and loaded up the game... Chloe and Lola have the original black alien eyes. Hate to say this, but you're missing something in your purge process. If it's not out of your Sims2 folder completely, try that.. That's the only thing I can think of... Well, that and simple human error... it happens to the best of us. Make sure you don't have a duplicate somehow lingering around in your downloads folder, or in any other folder within the Sims2 folder. I really don't think the Sims 2 can load something like that if it's not either in SavedSims or Downloads, but I guess you never know! Please let me know how things work out. By the way, your alien chick is hot. 

[RainbowTigress]

Here is my alien sim, before and after.  I did plastic surgery on her because I didn't like her huge eyes.  They didn't look right with the normal eyes, and I never cared for the black alien eyes anyway, so I gave her a whole new face with pointy ears too, LOL.  Here she is.  Which do you think is prettier?

[Brynne]

I dunno. They both look like real aliens to me!
Seriously, these skins look great. I may start having to play with vamps and aliens, now.

[RainbowTigress]

I always hated the green skins they put on the aliens.  I thought it was so ugly and just flat and dimensionless.  I didn't like playing them.  I have been using Sleepycat's default alien replacement skins, which are nice, but I love this color.  I think I might play aliens more now with these skins!
