In The End Nothing Comes Easy (Cazy Steps Moose'd)

Hectic life is hectic, lets get down to business.

I really like this hair, and I've been waiting for a hatless version for a while, now. Of course, the textures aren't quite shiny enough for my tastes, so I HAD to retexture it.

Title is based on Pelican by The Maccabees. I really like this song, its definitely worth checking out. I post music with my retextures because its unique and because I've always had lots of trouble finding music and I thought I would help whichever random person happens to like music that I happen to like.

CATCH PHRASE!
This hairstyle is 10,830 polygons in high detail (lod0) in lod1, this hair is 4972 polygons, but its slightly fugly, so I'd recommend that you only use it if you can run it in high detail.
This hairstyle is only available for teen - elder females, I tried to convert it for kids, but I wasn't satisfied enough with it to share with all of you. Also, you can only have one version in your game. Sorry, I actually tried to make it non-default, but it just didn't work.

If you like my work and would like immediate updates as to when I update my blog, I call this chunk of internet my home away from home (aside from my blog, I guess. weird analogy). Also, you can subscribe or comment.

P.S.(In yellow agunn): If you have any issues at all with my work, please let me know, and I will fix them. 
Please no paysites or stealing of my textures; anything else goes. I require credit if you bundle a hair in a download or use a mesh edit of mine. Credit is always nice, though, so if you use my stuff, please feel free.

I'm Losing It, With Every Move I Die (Newsea NightBloom Moose'd)

Okay, so things have been hectic, and my game keeps crashing for some reason (not hair related, I'm positive) so taking previews has been really hard. My life has been pretty nuts, and I've been pretty stressed because I have too much to do all the time, and its driving me nuts. This is probably the closest thing to stress relief I have, though, so the posts are probably still going to come out at least weekly, but no promises.

Disregard the following paragraph, its just me venting.
One thing that's really been pissing me off is some of the newer retexturers out there. It doesn't bother me that other people retexture, but the fact that they release everything so quickly. To be honest, I'm very jealous of them all. It takes me about 4 hours per retexture, and most days I simply don't have the time to do my life stuff much less sims stuff. I also have a feeling that these people are just dropping their textures into a template and just cranking everything out while I'm sitting here MAKING textures for each individual hair, and yet I STILL get shit for not being pooklet. AND on top of that, I go to great lengths to demonstrate the difference between my textures and the originals, and all these people get praised for taking like 5 pictures in random colors. I have to take 15 (3 for each color) and then people say that my graphics card is terrible and I shouldn't be making things for Sims. You simply can't win.

Title is based on Ke$ha's Dancing With Tears In My Eyes.

Catch Phrase.
All ages for females, but not compatible with any other version, choose carefully.

It's all my fault,

P.S. (In YELLER): If you have any issues, let me know, and I will fix them ASAP.
Do what you like with my files, but no paysites, and don't take my textures. I require credit only if my files are bundled in a download, but if you take previews with my work in them, it would be REALLY nice if you credited me.

They Get Lost And Out Of Time (Butterflysims 39 Moose'd)

Alright kids, it is time for another retexture! I hope all of you don't mind the adf.ly thing, because I really like it, and it has a nice way of tracking where all of you are, for example, I had no idea that people in places like Korea and Latvia like my work, so shout out to them, it makes me feel awesome. Also, all of us had to wait a REALLY long time to get our hands on this style. Ridank.

Title based on Little Black Submarines by The Black Keys. Epic song is epic.

Okay, so bad news. This isn't available for children. It looks like trash on children, and its also not something that I will ever use so I did not resize it. Sorry. Only Teen-Adult females (simply too glam for the youngin's). Also, you can only have one version in your game at a time, so if you wanted Butterfly's for some odd reason, its too bad. ENJOY.




Disclaimer: I did not make this messy (albeit pretty) mesh. I only made the textures for it and lowered it a little to suit my tastes.

If you like my work, there's this page on this piece of internet that belongs to me, you can check it out, or you can comment or subscribe :)

Moosie

P.S. (AHN PARPLE): Let me know if you encounter any issues, I will fix them straight up. 
Use my work for what you like, but no paysites or stealing of textures. I only require credit if my mesh edit is used or if my file is being bundled with a download, taking of pictures does not need credit, although it is nice.
