Two mesh-edited photo collages and six texture-edited message boards

First up is a mesh edit of Billyjean's (Leehee4444) Kitchen set's "magic painting". It started out simply, as I have no love for inspirational words as decor, but the rest of the frames were awsum. Then, I didn't want a crucifix because my most-played neighborhood's deities are Shiva and Minerva. They don't really know what a crucifix is. So, inspiration struck, and... well...

I added another arm and made a "cross" like the huge one in the back of the Sector 5 church. I don't even want to think of how many hours it took me to find, settle on, and fit all of these pictures (for a labeled map of what you're looking at, click here.) I'm astounded but thrilled that the above is an in-game shot, and the images stayed as clear as they looked in Milkshape. Images were chosen to be flexible for multiple families, with no obvious faces of people your sims may not know jumping out at them. And of course, they're all FFVII pictures and computer generated, so they're not as odd as having photos of real people inside the game, either. I found new images for the oval and round frames, as well (and am so stupidly tickled over the Gold Saucer souvenir plate.) I doubt there's a clear photo of Cloud's key for Fenrir, so I cheated and used the Fenrir keyblade. Almost all of the images came from the FFVII Wiki and YouTube screenshots. None of the pictures are mine, so feel free to use them in any way that won't have Square Enix on your ass.
This mesh takes up 2 tiles of wall space and has 653 polygons, down from 1,411 on the original.
NOTE: This is a mesh edit of Billyjean's collage, not a stand-alone object. It is labeled differently to prevent confusion, but it will conflict if you try to use both. If you want the ribbons, stars, and hearts, do not download this version. Due to some mapping changes (most just to center new frame textures on the meshes, but there are a couple of cloned frames that had to be moved to display unique images,) the FFVII images cannot be applied to Billyjean's original mesh as-is (if you want to try, though, go for it.) However, there is an included 'recolor' of Billyjean's original set of artwork, as well:

>>DOWNLOAD Wall Collages
This second set is another batch of wall art. Chalkboards, to be precise:

The mesh (chandelier) is from Jope's Living Room 8 set at SimplyStyling. The top three designs and chalkboard texture are by Alfie at BlackPearlSims. Her policy asks not to reuse her textures, but I'm kind of in the dark. When I first found her recolors, she was on a break from the community. I left a permission PM, and about three days later saw an "I'm back" thread, but almost three weeks later, I haven't heard anything. Alfie's BPS designer page has been removed, so... I dunno. This wouldn't be the first time I've been a dick, so here they are.
The woods on the frames are my usual samples of cypress and koa, with a polish on the latter. The bottom three images are vintage Japanese matchbox artwork. All 'chalk' doodles are hand-drawn - well, tablet drawn - by me.

That's all for tonight, so no paysite or claiming you made, and we're all good.
