Headshot
The headshot on this Sim's page is not the original one found in SimPE. I know it's no big issue, but it would be nice if someone who has both The Sims 2: Seasons and SimPE on their computer could upload a new image (preferably an uncensored one in the format 'PNG') to replace this one.

 * How did you know it wasn't the original pose?  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  12:33, June 30, 2014 (UTC)


 * Oh, because when I played the game on a laptop and used the BoolProp testingcheatsenabled cheat to make one of my Sims know everyone with the "make me know everyone" option.


 * When I saw River's headshot in the Relationships panel (which was different from the current headshot), I knew that this must have been his "true" pose. The reason I knew was because of the comparison between his original headshot and the original headshot for Derek Vijayakar.


 * As you probably will have noticed, River's default headshot is less detailed and more polygonal than Derek's headshot.


 * Many of the pre-made playable Sims from The Sims 2 base game have less detailed and more polygonal thumbnails. This is also the case of the majority of pre-made playable and unplayable Sims from University, Open for Business, Life Stories, Seasons and Apartment Life, and a few from Bon Voyage and FreeTime.


 * However the Townies and NPCs from The Sims 2 base game (such as Derek Vijayakar) and The Sims 2: Nightlife, as well as a few Sims from other Expansion packs have headshots which are more detailed and less polygonal than the thumbnails such as River's.


 * It is possible for Sims who are created in-game to have rendered / compressed thumbnails like River's but that is relatively uncommon unless the sim/object detail is set to low. More detailed and less polygonal thumbnails always show the Sim as they look in-game.


 * Examples of some comparisons between more polygonal and less detailed thumbnails, and more detailed and less polygonal thumbnails can be found on this page. --  C.Syde  ( talk &#124;  contribs ) 06:57, August 21, 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the explanation, although I'm still confused how you can be very certain about it. >_> Oh well, it's nice that you can spot the subtle detail.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote!  05:42, September 12, 2014 (UTC)
