              Applications made by my sweet boyfriend, Dom, 
                for us, Sim-Players! 
                We can now rename our skins easily for expansions packs (Hot Date, 
                Vacation and even SuperStar), and we can also check in our objects 
                files if we don't have a conflict ID, and fix it, if needed, and 
                correct .IFF files names, if they have been cut because of name's 
                lenght.  
                 
                Disclaimer: Use these applications at your own risks! We 
                won't be responsible if you have any troubles with one of them: 
                we have tried them and they work fine for us, we simply hope it 
                will be the same for you.  |
