Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
Reading @cryinginthebronco's amazing fic Are you thinking about me too? ('cause I can't stop thinking about you) got me thinking about Bradley and Jake's handwriting...
For Bradley, I decided that his horrible penmanship is the real reason why his callsign is Rooster. CHICKEN SCRATCH! Nothing but chicken scratches... People (or Jake) got so annoyed at trying to decipher Bradley's writing, they simply had to give him a chicken callsign.
(I have several headcanons for the Rooster callsign, this is one of them.)
As for Jake? Well, his particularly strict childhood education and/or his deep sense of perfection led him to write in nothing but perfect calligraphic handwriting!
I can’t draw to save my life, but I *can* write silly little taglines, so here are some fan-made print ads I made for Dropout.tv!
Was this an excuse to make puns out of the different show names? Yes, yes it was. My creative writing degree is being put to good use I swear…
The overall style was inspired by Dropout's logo, and I tried to incorporate each show’s logo text into the ads too just to add some variety to the minimal colour scheme.
Also, here’s video proof that I did in fact drive myself insane making these (in a good way ofc, this was so much fun and I’m so happy with how these came out :))
All the fonts I used are below the read more line if you're interested because I don’t wanna make this post any longer than it already is!

"Hi everyone!
EA aging system is very strange so I decide to fix it.
In short words - I made it useful for casual gaming.
Now your sim has enough time to reach success in his career, explore his neighborhood, meet friends, travel to other countries, find fun, love and rest in his life.
I made this tuning mod for myself long time ago but why not to share?
Details?
"Details, details..." Johnny Gat.
EA aging system consists of days, years and Life stages.
Each Lifestage consists of years, each year consists of days. The number of days in the year depend on selected Lifespan.

I then had a look at typefaces for my logo. I had a look at both serif and sans serif and then also calligraphic and script fonts. I evaluated that the calligraphy fonts were too hard to read, so I tried out different luxury looking serif fonts.
COMPOSITION
I then used this serif font ‘Cormorant Garamond’ and tested out different compositions with my black and white digitalised lino print.
I overall really liked the look of the first layout, the second and the 6th.
I wanted to develop the 6th layout further because I believe using half of the flower cuts down the amount of detail leaving more effective negative space and also leaves a perfect straight edge for
After our tutorial, I Tried a few experiments using just the main letter from my name however I did not like how the boldness of the letter clashed with the dainty flower.
After being given feedback also, I was advised to change the serif font to a sans serif as the serif font adds extra unneeded detail to the logo when put against the flower.
I really liked the look of the 2 last fonts as they are clear to read and simplistic against the detailed flower.
I chose the font ‘Gill Sans MT’
I really liked the simplicity of the black and white logo however, it could be seen as any type of flower.
To make it look more specifically like a Daisy flower I used my other experiment with the yellow centre which I believe makes it more fun and interesting to look at. Adds a small fun pop of colour to the logo.

The Art of Font Selection: Creating Impactful Print Materials at Graphic Studio"
Introduction:
At Graphic Studio, we believe that font selection is a crucial aspect of designing impactful print materials. The right font can evoke emotions, establish brand identity, and enhance the overall visual appeal of a design. In this blog post, we will explore how our experienced designers at Graphic Studio expertly balance fonts and design elements to create captivating print materials across a range of industries. We will showcase additional examples and even suggest specific fonts, including popular ones available in CorelDRAW, a widely used design software.
Corporate Brochures: Professionalism and Elegance
Corporate brochures require fonts that exude professionalism and elegance while maintaining readability. For a financial institution or law firm, our designers often opt for sophisticated and classic serif fonts such as Times New Roman or Garamond. These fonts lend an air of authority and trustworthiness to the brochures, establishing a strong brand presence.
Restaurant Menus: Reflecting Culinary Delights
Restaurant menus should capture the essence of the cuisine and reflect the establishment's personality. For a contemporary restaurant offering fusion cuisine, our designers might choose a clean and modern sans-serif font like Montserrat or Helvetica. These fonts convey a sense of sophistication and align with the restaurant's innovative and cosmopolitan image.
Wedding Invitations: Romance and Elegance
Wedding invitations demand fonts that embody romance, elegance, and personalization. Our designers often recommend stylish script fonts like Edwardian Script or Great Vibes for the couple's names and headings. Complementing these with a classic serif or sans-serif font, such as Baskerville or Futura, for the main content ensures readability and balance.
Fitness Brochures: Energy and Dynamism
Fitness brochures should convey energy and dynamism to attract potential clients. Our designers might suggest bold and vibrant fonts like Bebas Neue or Impact to create eye-catching headlines. For the body text, they may opt for a clean and modern sans-serif font, such as Myriad Pro or Arial, to ensure legibility and maintain a professional appearance.
Art Exhibition Flyers: Creativity and Expressiveness
Art exhibition flyers call for fonts that reflect creativity and expressiveness. Our designers might recommend artistic display fonts like Brush Script or Broadway for capturing attention and setting the tone. Complementing these with a minimalist and modern sans-serif font, such as Futura or Gotham, for additional information ensures clarity and contrast.
Some suggested fonts from the Graphic Studios library include:
Bickham Script Pro: Perfect for elegant and formal designs, such as invitations or certificates.
Franklin Gothic: A versatile sans-serif font suitable for a range of designs, from brochures to posters.
Bodoni MT: A classic and elegant serif font ideal for conveying sophistication and refinement in various print materials.
Conclusion:
Font selection plays a crucial role in creating impactful print materials across industries. At Graphic Studio, our skilled designers carefully balance fonts and design elements to evoke the desired emotions, establish brand identity, and ensure readability. Whether designing corporate brochures, restaurant menus, wedding invitations, fitness brochures, or art exhibition flyers, the thoughtful selection of fonts contributes to the overall success of the design. By leveraging a combination of industry knowledge and access to a wide array of fonts, including those available in Graphic Studio consistently delivers captivating print materials that effectively communicate the intended message.
There’s a popular saying among type setters: ‘when in doubt, use Caslon’. The result is organic letters that bear close resemblance to the beloved serif of kings. Twombly designed them by studying specimen pages printed by William Caslon between 17. In 1990, type designer Carol Twombly created a Caslon revival called Adobe Caslon, which was more suited to digital needs. Soon, they also became famous outside of England, making their way to the New World, just in time for the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The Caslon fonts were used extensively by people from all ranks, particularly in political arenas. His works gained fame because of their attractiveness and functionality. A notable English punchcutter, he designed many typefaces during this time, until his death in 1766.

So, @sliceofplumbobpie was asking me what mods I used, and I thought it would be fun to put together a list of all of the mods that I currently use, and ones that I used at the beginning of the Spare Parts BACC that I no longer use (for one reason or another). This is that list, and I plan to reblog it over on my main blog, @cyazurai, as well. It got to be extremely long because I have way too many mods, though, so this will be done in several parts.
I haven’t included all of my custom traits and aspirations because I didn’t add those until later, but if you want me to make a list of those as well, I can definitely put one together. (None of the original sims have these custom traits and aspirations.) I also didn’t include some of my mods, when I started feeling like the list was too long and I might be the only one interested.
I have bolded the name of each mod, and added a simple description of each, so that you can skim through and see if anything looks unfamiliar to you.
I will add a page break right here, because I know that this is going to end up very long. This post will just be for my big script mods.
Previous || Next
MC Command Center by Deaderpool - My most necessary of mods!
Education Overhaul by a.deep.indigo - A mod that adds a lot to the school system, including more rabbithole options, extra things to study with the homework, detention, types of school, etc.
Summer Camps by a.deep.indigo - This mod goes along with the education overhaul, though they can be used without each other. During the summer when school is out (another feature of education overhaul) your children and teens can go to a variety of different camps.
University Application Overhaul by a.deep.indigo - Yet another good school-related mod by a.deep.indigo, makes the university application process much more realistic and difficult.
Blogging Hobby and Aspiration by a.deep.indigo - I’m still working out whether I will keep this one or not, but so far I’ve been having fun with it. It allows your sim to run a blog online similar to the ones from The Sims 3, and has an aspiration related to that.
Basemental Drugs by Basemental - This mod does exactly what it sounds like it does - it adds drugs to the game. There is also a version that adds alcohol, which I used to have, but switched back to the full version recently.
UI Cheats Extension by weerbesu - This one is another that does exactly what it sounds like - it adds all sorts of cheats that you can use on the UI, often by right clicking on the element you want to change.
Heir and Spare Traits by Dale - This one isn’t going to be used much in my BACC, but I plan to use it in my many legacies. It gives you the option to give reward traits to your sim’s kids to designate who’s the heir and who’s the spare(s).
Language Barriers by Frankk - This is a mod that adds language barriers to the game based on several factors - if a sim is an alien they will be a Sixami native, if they’re from Mt. Komorebi they are a Komorebigo native, and the most common language is Simlish. If a toddler gets spoken to in multiple languages as they grow up, what language they have the highest skill in when they age up determines which is their native language.
Retail Overhaul by LittleMsSam - This mod improves retail lots. It makes it so you can hire sims you weren’t able to before, faster employee interactions, faster customer interactions, more tasks for employees to do, more shopping options, etc.
Bed Cuddle by thepancake1 and MizoreYukii - An obvious one, this is just a mod that adds the ability for couples to cuddle when they sleep in the same bed. A completely necessary mod in my opinion.
LGBT Mod by PimpMySims4 - This one have a lot of extra gameplay features, but it does add quite a bit for your LGBT sims. You can give them traits corresponding to their sexuality and/or gender, have them ponder who they are, have a coming out party or a drag party, etc. (Can also override the politician protest signs to LGBT themed ones.)
Meaningful Stories by roBurky - This mod affects the way emotions work in the game. It redesigns them, making happiness its own separate emotion, and turns several of the neutral “happy” moodlets into “fine” moodlets, as well as adding emotional inertia (since emotions don’t just disappear instantly in real life), and makes the negative emotions stack together the way positive ones do. Also moods are less intense, and more varied.
Teach Me the Rumbasim by LittleMsSam - This mod makes it so you don’t need to get to level five of the Selvadoradian culture skill to learn the dance. All you have to do is ask a local to learn it and they’ll teach you.
SimDa Dating App by LittleMsSam - This mod adds an app to your sims’ phones that allows them to find dates online, where they can either pick their date or sign up for blind dates, as well as hook-ups.
More Buyable Venues and Venue Types by LittleMsSam - This mod allows you to buy more types of venues, and adds more venue types to the game. I haven’t tested this one out very much, but it’s really nice for a BACC where you’ll be building up all the types of venues yourself anyway.
Ingame Gender Transition Mod by Meep62 - Another mod that does exactly what it says. It allows transgender sims to transition without you having to go into CAS to change them.
Small Vegetarian Overhaul by Robin - A mod that reworks vegetarianism, since it’s really not a personality trait. This makes it so any sim can decide to be a vegetarian at any time, or decide to go back to being an omnivore later.
Foster Family by LittleMsSam - This mod adds the ability to foster kids or pets. This is a mod I plan to use more once I unlock services in the BACC, because I feel like it would be considered a service. I actually have an entire plan revolving around this mod once I unlock it. So if you’ve read this far, congratulations, you’ve unlocked a Spare Parts spoiler. 😉
Better Exceptions by TwistedMexi - This mod is wonderful because it reads through your last exceptions from MCCC, and tells you what mod is causing the problem (if it was a mod). It also gives you a list of your duplicate CC/mods, and ones that had tuning errors.
Live in Business by LittleMsSam - This mod allows your sim to open a business in their home, using lot traits. This is another that I plan to use later on, once I’ve unlocked positive lot traits.
Afterschool Activity Bundle 1 and Bundle 2 by Ilkavelle - I am really annoyed by the lack of afterschool activities, so I downloaded more.
SimsLootBox+ by LittleMsSam - This is just a fun little mod that makes it so your sim can order a weekly loot box to be delivered to their house every Monday. The box has several different themes, such as science or dreamer, and includes random collectibles and a book, usually.
Quit or Join School by Triplis - This mod makes it so children and teens are able to either quit or join school.
Contextual Social Interactions by Lumpinou - This mod adds new interactions related to situations that have happened to your sim. The sim can share new about work, tell friends/family about getting abducted by aliens, etc.
Go To School by Zerbu - This mod does what it sounds like. If you build an elementary school and a high school, your sim will be able to go to school and it acts like an active career. I intend to do this in Spare Parts eventually, but I don’t have a lot of places to build two schools yet.
Thinking Skill by Triplis - This mod adds a thinking skill to the game, as well as two aspirations related to thinking.
Lifetime Quirks by Kuttoe - Since I no longer have any sickness or mental health specific mods, I decided to try this one, since it seems more subtle. So far, I like it.
Basic Burns by Kuttoe - This mod makes it so sims who aren’t actively sunbathing can still tan or burn in the sun, which is how it was meant to be in the first place. I only just added it, though, so I don’t know how well it works.
Hey, I read your FAQ, about the psds, do you happen to have the Barbie gifset settings to share? Please?
Also could you tell me how you make the gifs clear and noiseless?
heloo!! i unfortunately do not have the barbie gifset psd but i use the same sharpen settings for all my live-action gifs! here’s kind of a super basic overview of how i make my gifs, i know there’s a lot of tutorials out there (would rec rina’s bc it’s super comprehensive)
1 - get ur screencaps
2 - load ur screencaps into photoshop with file --> stack --> load files into stack
3 - resize ur image in ps
4 - i use actions bc they make things super fast and easy, rizz’s action is rly good
- use ‘scripts’ right after you load screencaps into ps and then resize
- then run the sharpening action, rizz’s action has two diff ones and it depends on the gif as to which one you wanna use bc u don’t want to oversharpen a gif (i pasted my settings for live-action stuff below)
- then run the ‘save’ setting and then color your gif with adjustments
re: the barbie set specifically, i used a 5.something GB file, ran the sharpen settings below and then mostly colored with an adjustment layer of exposure (my fave for brightening up, increasing contrast) and then some selective color in yellow
for the text settings; my usual font is ‘arial rounded mt bold’ and then you type something and then right click that text layer and add ‘stroke’ on the outside and a drop shadow, the color for the barbie one specifically was #ffabf6
for save settings: i pasted my settings below + there’s an option under ‘animation’ on this save tab so make sure you have the looping options set to ‘forever’
my sharpen settings from where it was mentioned above
overall, the best way to get crispy/noiseless gifs is that extra layer of 10,10 sharpening BUT ALSO to get a good 1080p file. for the movies i gif i usually try to get files that are around 7gb+ but i know some gifmakers prefer like 25gb+ so it’s up to preference. i usually try to avoid files that big just bc i don’t have space
for barbie set, i could only find a 5gb-ish file which turned out okay so sometimes it’s just kinda the material u have available and u try to color/mess around best u can
this got very rambly sorry a;lsjd;g please feel free to reach out if something didn’t make sense or if you have more questions <3
Hi I was wondering if u mind sharing what are ur favorite fonts you like to use?
This has been sitting in my inbox for ages so I'm sorry anon for not responding sooner, but I wanted to give you a good answer and get links/examples together.
I have decided to split the fonts into categories and how I like to use each type of font. I'll also give some links to where you can find the font 😊
Because I hardly ever save my psds I can't remember which fonts I used exactly for some of my sets so I will have a bit of trouble being specific with examples, but will try my best to list some sets at the end with font pairings I remember.
Whenever I get the chance, I like to browse and find new fonts to use. Typically when looking for fonts I'll look at dafont, fontsquirell, fontspace and even tumblr.
Scene captions
Typically I use Arial Rounded MT Bold for gif captions and I put it on faux italic. This font should be pre-installed on your computer.
Sans-serif fonts
Young
Keep Calm
Typo Formal
Intro
Quartz (I haven't used this font yet, but I love the look of it and am keen to try it out).
Cheerful Dynamite (I'm not sure if this counts as cursive or not, but I'm putting it here)
Serif fonts
Achiela
Abril Fatface
Bodoni Seventytwo
Carina W04 bold - this font is probably my favourite font and one of the ones I use most. It looks great in all uppercase and lowercase.
Playfair Display
Tornado: I've only ever used this font on my Angelica Schuyler set, but I do really like the flourishes it has.
Cursive fonts
Amberla/Amberla alt
Breathing - this is another font I use very often
Golden Stanbury
Great Day
Millk Child
Moderna Script
November Starlight/November Starlight Alt
Santa Fe Spring
Example Sets
Descendants tropes - font used Achiela in all caps with some warp applied.
Rina supercut - cursive font is November Starlight (I think the Alt version), print font is Young
Faith set - serif font (purple text) is Carina W04 bold. I can't remember which sans-serif font I used but it is probably one of the ones listed above.
Gina Porter + traits - serif font (pink text) is Carina W04 bold. I think sans-serif font is Keep Calm with lots of spacing applied.
Curse of Sarah Fier Nursery Rhyme - I think the font used here was Bodoni Seventytwo
