Poster Collages on Butterfly Crawler

Never enough of poster collages for me, so I put together some ready-to-use ones and slapped them on the Free Time Butterfly Crawler mesh.

There are 28 variations. These collages use the work of 228 different artists; the archive includes full-sized swatches with artist names and a file with a link to each of them.

Full credit to the artists. None of the art is by me, and I don't make any profit from sharing these. Please see the links to check out other pieces by these people, I'm a big fan of their work!

Download (SFS) (alternate)

The files are compressed, Free Time is required. You can find add-ons for the butterfly crawler here and there.

I've tried to ensure no AI images are included. Please support human artists 💜

That's it for these two lovebirds (?) and that means it's almost time for the start of winter! To recap:

🏫 Hamlet and Tucker went to Windflower Tech and stayed at Price Hall, the low-budget option. 🗡️ They both basically immediately cheated on each other and went through a fraught period in their relationship :| 👨‍🦰 Hal Lindengrove, Basil Babinski's boyfriend, joined their love triangle, so that'll be interesting. 📄 They both graduated with decent grades and are headed back to Windflower Bay!

I'll be real y'all, I think this my last hurrah for college in the Sims 2. I just don't enjoy it and I can't figure out a combination of semesters/days/autonomy that make it more interesting to me.

So! I'm planning to install all the college want blockers + Nopke's Growing Up Wants Panel mod to add the option to get more want slots for sims who grow up in Platinum aspiration. That feels like a nice substitute for the challenge of university.

It won't affect any teens for a while since the next batch would be Hamlet's younger brothers, Hermes and Henry, but I already feel so relieved I won't have to mess with college anymore 😭

Anyway. Onto the wrap-up post!

[snapdragoned]

And that's a wrap on college for these two! Kind of tumultuous, but they muscled through mostly intact.

Except that Tucker's still spinning wants about Hal and Hamlet is now suddenly infatuated with that dormie he turned down a few days ago! So I don't know 🤷‍♀️ They'll be moving in together for the next round and I'd like to make them work itout, but we may have a love rhombus on our hands here...

More assorted dorm life as they approach senior finals!

[snapdragoned]

But big feelings never last long for sims. Hamlet and Tucker quietly reconcile in the dorm library ❤️

And then to prove his commitment, Hamlet swiftly turns down a cute dormie!

[snapdragoned]

Eating on other sides of the cafeteria like feuding cats :(

Hal, you stay out of this!!!

[snapdragoned]

Hamlet is absolutely crashing out over here 😭

[snapdragoned]

Hamlet copes by blogging and taking an angsty shower. I'm imagining he's been listening to a lot of Linkin Park :(

[snapdragoned]

Hal in the morning, Hamlet in the evening...

But the next day it finally catches up with him! 😬🗡️❤️ Whoops!

Honestly, this was one of the reasons why I was debating uninstalling ACR... maybe (definitely) that's my own fault for not tuning it right because I pictured them having a more open and chill relationship, but there's been so much random pointless cheating in my hood that I was kind of fed up. 😭

(I split the difference and ended up incorporating Romantic Standards with ACR 2.0 and that seems to have helped.)

Having a little dining hall omelette date before finals 💖🍳

...Immediately ruined by the campus streaker.

[snapdragoned]

Can you tell I just installed the towel mod? Maybe bad timing to play a dorm with it considering how infrequently college students change their clothes in this game 😅

Assorted scenes from dorm life 📚🏫🌳

[snapdragoned]

Okay, I know he and Hamlet have a sort of open relationship, but nooo Tucker 😭 He starts putting the moves on Hal!

The guilt must get to him later because he whips out the diary for a little self-reflection... Dear Diary, why can't I tell any of the identical redheads in this dorm apart?
