Be My Baby One More Time (Newsea Camouflage) Retex'd by Metalmoose

I remember seeing a preview of this hair, and marveling at how DARK the roots where. My goodness.
I'm proud of this one, I saw through Newsea's weird controls and figured out exactly where everything goes. I'm starting to figure this stuff out (17(?) hairs in, hahahaaaa)

The title is inspired by Cut/Copy's song, Lights and Music.

Adjust-Shine is one the left, and EA Control is on the right (I accidentally took bigger pics of Adjust-Shine, sorry):

There isn't a picture for males because I don't like this hair for males, use your imagination, its the SAME texture, but on a guy. 

Please do NOT use more than one version, because if you do, consequences will never be the same. Also, only use the all file if you want ALL the hair in your game, if not then mix and match with the remaining files.

Unzipped, the files are around 27 megabytes, but you'll only be putting a maximum of 14 into your game.

Filenames:

DISCLAIMER: I didn't make this hair, it was made by the talented Newsea, tainted as they are by their dark roots. If you really want the original, they made this one free, and it can be found here.

Oh Na Na (Whats my name?) (Newsea Lamb Retex'd)

So I'm not even sure if I'm going to retexture Newsea's Jump, I don't really like it, I think its ugly. I might later on, but I can't find a link right now, and I really want a nap, so instead of leaving you with nothing, I'm posting a hair that I made for a sim that I'm going to post over at Garden of Shadows at some point.

The name is inspired by Rihanna's song; What's My Name?, because its a nice relaxing song, and Drake's voice sounds awesome, its so deep and soothing and stuff, computers aside.

Adjust-Shine is going downtown on the left, and EA Control is losing its mind on the right:


Black:


Brown:


Red:


Blonde:


Control:


I've liked this hair for a while, and I'm glad I finally got around to retexturing it with my new textures, which I think are a large improvement over my previous ones. 

Please use ONLY ONE VERSION. This has never actually been a problem, but I'm not about to let it become one. Please use the ALL file if you want all the ages at once, if not you can mix and match with the remainders.

Unzipped, the files will total to about 21 megabytes, but you'll only be putting a maximum of 12 in your game. (If that).

Filenames:
Adjust-Shine:

I just realized posting filenames is a huge bitch to do. Gah. 

DISCLAIMER: I did not make this hairstyle. It was made by Newsea, and you can find it if you click this underlined blue orange thingie

Basically thanks for checking out my work, if you like what you see, click an ad, or subscribe (little thingie at the bottom of the page) or say something nice in the comments section!

Whoa-o-o-o-oh,

You can do whatever with my work, but please use my work for good things, and not evil things (example being paysites). Also, gimme and Newsea credit by linking back here. Also, please don't steal my textures from my hairs, I made those from scratch, I'd appreciate it if you didn't touch them.

She Make Me Wanna Say: La La La La (Peggy 735 Retex'd)

I've been having a great weekend, I went to go see Long Beach Gay Pride yesterday, and I've never been, so it was crazy cool to watch, religious protesters aside. Today, I had a day off, and I managed to get some great relaxation time in, I made my own textures from scratch, and I had plenty of time to get the hair you see below done.

The title and name of the hair is inspired by LMFAO's song La La La, because honestly, the only thing missing in my life lately is a good party.

Adjust-Shine is on top of the world on the left, and EA Control is Party Rockin' on the right:


Black:


Brown:


Red:


Blonde:


Control:


I really like the shape of this hair, its really unique. Also, the roots are in the upper left of the hair, but they're towards the back, which is why you can't see them. I think they look great, but you're just going to have to see for yourself?

Please use only one version, putting both into your game will make it very likely that neither one shows up.

The hair SHOULD unzip to a maximum of 4 megabytes, and you'll only be putting that much in your game. (Yay for file compression!)

Filenames:
Adjust-Shine:
(La La La La (Peggy 735 - Adjust-Shine -F) Moose Retex.package)
EA Control:

Disclaimer: I did not make this, it was made by Peggy over at her zone, and can be found hee-yuh.

Thank you for stopping by! If you want to know when I make new stuff, then use that handy follow tool, I think its somewhere at the bottom of the blog. If you like my work, please click one of the thingies below the top post, if I get enough clicks, I can possibly get a T$R sub, or a copy of Generations, or maybe even unleashed when they come out. 

you my new obsession,
'moose (or moosie, if you so desire)

P.S.- Please use my work for good (making sims over at GoS or modthesims) but I'd prefer you avoid evil. (Paysites, you know who they are). Also, give me and Peggy credit if you do use our work, a simple link back here will suffice. Be smart, eat fruit, and happy simming!

And its nice to meet you sir, I guess I'll go, I'll just be on my way out (Newsea Holic Retex'd) UPDATED 5-21-11

*Update 5-21-2011* I noticed that a majority of people hated this retexture, some where nicer than others about it, but I realized that they were right, and I had indeed made it look worse than the original. I hadn't given the hair my all, and all of you deserve much better than that. So I started from scratch and spent a few more hours on it today, and now I'm actually happy with it. If you still think it looks terrible, you can go suck a cow, because I really really tried my best on this one. If you have any constructive criticism go ahead and let me know, but to be honest, I'm happy with it, and thats what matters.

FINALLY, Finals are over, I have so much to upload for all of you!

When I saw this, I knew exactly which song to pair it up with. I know that previously, the hair and name match-ups didn't make much sense, but this one does to me. I love this song by one of my favorite bands, Paramore. The song is called Ignorance, please enjoy!

Adjust-Shine is on the left, and EA Control is on the right. (I added Newsea's highlights as well, and I gave my models some fun-colored tips to show them off, as you can see, they're labelled, so there shouldn't be any confusion (click the small images to see them full-size)):

I love the fact that Newsea is doing new and crazy stuff, I think its great, and its fun to play around with.

I still haven't figured out how to use DABOOBS properly, so if you would so kindly only use one version. It won't work with two. And now, to make things even MORE confusing, there is a version within a version. If you like adjust-shine, download that, and then choose whether you'd like the highlights or not. That is all

There is currently still no kids version, although I think it looks horrible on children, I will upload it when I get it. (I ripped this off a sim on the exchange, for god's sake). Also, I attempted to convert it for males, and it worked, but the hair went into the sim's chest. I made him super thin, and still no beans. That means it will require that I edit the mesh, and I don't really know how to do that yet. So if it comes out for males, I'll retexture it for them too, until that day, its a no. 

Unzipped, the hair will be between 2-3 megabytes, it shouldn't really be a problem for anyone, you'll be putting 2-3 megabytes in your game. 

Filenames:
Adjust-Shine:
(Nice To Meet You (Adjust-Shine- F) Moose Retex.package).

DISCLAIMER: This wasn't made by me, it was made by the creative and lovely Newsea; and as stuffed as their pockets may be, they can make some nice hair. This one can be found here.

I think its great that you're here, and if you like what you see, click some stuff, feel free to explore.

You're not a judge but if you're gonna judge me,

Please use my work for good, and not evil. By that I mean NO PAYSITES. Also, please give myself and Newsea credit, we both worked on this, we both deserve to be credited or at least linked. Thankyehvurrymuch.

I 'Ain't Got The Time, And If My Daddy Thinks I'm Fine... (Newsea Spotlight Retex'd)

Oh my-- I hate school so much right now. Also, I hate the fact that I previously made two hairs, and the next day Newsea comes out with a new hair. I'm going to fail everything. Jesus.

Title is inspired by Amy Winehouse's Rehab, which I'm obsessed with.

Adjust-Shine is on the left, and EA Control is on the right.

Brown:


Red:

I really like this hair. I love big and crazy stuff, and this is amazing for me, also, I figured out how to make sure the shine isn't all scattered, so I learned something while retexturing this. In my opinion, its the best retexture I've ever done. 

Please only pick ONE of the two options. Also, if you want all the hairs, (Toddler - Elder) then use the ALL file, the other files are for mix n' match purposes. 

Unzipped, these files will be about 22 megabytes unzipped, but you'll only be installing a maximum of about 12 megabytes into your game as a maximum.

Filenames:

So Who Do You Think You Are? Running 'Round Leaving Scars (Peggy Gift 16-17 Retex'd)

I Won't Let You Choke On The Noose Around Your Neck! (Peggy Gift 14-15 Retex'd)

So I've made two hairs today (if the other one isn't up, it will be), and beaten Portal 2 for the second time in order to avoid working on my schoolwork. I'm so screwed for the next 8 hours.

This hair's name was inspired by The Cave by Mumford and Sons. I love this song so much, its so inspirational and stuff.

Lets get down to business, shall we? Adjust-Shine on the Left, EA Control on the Right:


Black:


Brown:


Red:


Blonde:


Control:


And thats that, isn't it? 

Please use only ONE set (pick between Adjust-Shine and EA Control), and please realize that the ALL file contains all of the hairs, while the others are for mix and matching purposes.

The files when unzipped while max out at about 14 megabytes, but keep in mind that you'll only be installing 8 megs (maximum) into your game, because I can make stuff smaller while keeping it looking pretty. (WOOO).

Boy You've Got My Heartbeat Running Away (Peggy 311-12)Retextured by Metalmoose)

It feels like its been a while since I've updated, but it really hasn't been. That probably means I have a problem. Eh, but I retextured somewhere around four hairs since last time, and the one I'm about to show you was the best one.

I heard this song recently, and I really loved it, so I decided to name this retexture after Nicki Minaj's Super Bass. Also, the video is great, I need to get me some Doc Martens now.

So yeah, Adjust-Shine's got the Super Bass on the left, and the EA Control is busy being all pelican fly on the right:

If you like what you see, please go ahead and click some ads, they won't hurt you, I swear.

I ask that you only download one set of files. You CAN download both, but you're only going to need to use one, any more than that will be of no use to you. Also, please only use one of two methods, if you want all of the hairs in your game, please use the ALL file. If you (for example) don't want this hair for toddlers, then use the other files for all the combinations your heart desires. 

I recently discovered a new method of saving files, but that was AFTER this, and going back and fixing it would have been a lot, but in the future, all hair combinations will max out at 10 megs. Unfortunately, as of this moment, these will max out at 41 megs. So you'll be putting about 40 megs into your game max, although unzipped, the .rar unzips into somewhere around 70.

Disclaimer: I did not make this hair. It was made by Peggy over at her website. She does this really obnoxious thing where she seperates her downloads between toddler-child and teen-elder, which makes looking for specific complete sets of hair really annoying. The children's version can be found here, and the version for adults can be found ovah nya. They're not free on her site, but they are here, and mine don't have those nasty dirty roots, so you should be satisfied.

It was very nice of you to take a look over at my work, and I hope you liked it enough to download it. If the latter is true, please click the things that flash and tell you to buy things, because that way, I'll be able to fund my purchase of Generations, and/or a TSR subscription so I can get those Newsea Hairs to you as they happen. 

Oh we'll be like boom badoom boomboom badoom boom--

If you'll look at my other posts, you'll notice that I don't want you to share my stuff without crediting me and linking back to my site.

So yeah, please credit me, and play nice with my work, and also credit peggy, because she meshed this beauty. Thankyavurrmuch.
