I'm very dissapointed that you wasted the opportunity for a great thread title. You could have called this 'From Plastic to Fantastic!' quite easily. Shame.

Your defaults are glorious.

I was actually going for alliteration with the P's. This came out at the same time as my 'Braver Briefs' and I wanted to continue the alliteration play for men's undies threads. Also, rhymes that don't have the same number of syllables bug the heck out of me, and I'm not sure that I'd self-proclaim my work 'fantastic'. That tends to just be a little ballsy and immature. Glad you like my work though!

Yup, I understand, I was only teasing. :P

Very cute thanks, I don't have a clue what EA was thinking when they made their texture for everything. There are very very few EA/Maxis clothes that I think are cute.

thanks, I also liked the download for kids, too. Have you made these for teens/elders yet?

Thank you so much! (:

I do recall thinking these looked like swimtrunks. I don't know how much I use them, probably not much. These look much better. Hopefully that means they will be used more.

Since you claim to love "reading" :

this is awesome, I have spent far too much time delaying working on my World History II project and downloading your lovely defaults instead.

I am so glad to see defaults for those boxers. Now they don't just take up space in the catalog. Flannel boxers don't seem odd to me. I'm sure I've seen some in the RW for hens and... uh, roosters. Thanks so much. =^..^=

Yay! now my guys can wear boxers without the shirt! I don't get the obsession maxis seems to have with bad textures. Danke!

Thank you! I've never liked the maxis boxers (mainly because they look more like swimming trunks than boxers!)...and that was a problem since I prefer that my male sims wear boxers. Now I can finally give them some decent ones!

This is (probably) a stupid question, but is there a difference between the "Phaenoh-BoxerPJsAdded.rar" file, and the "Phaenoh-amBoxersVersion2.rar" file? I'm crazy enough to want both of your boxer versions in my game, so I was wondering if one of these two files is non-default. xD

The only difference is that the waistband on V2 is darker. Both are defaults. If you have multiple defaults for the same thing, you can look into making a Bodyshop Copy of one or the other, basically turning it into regular CC.

You are the best, Phaenoh. Can't believe I am getting so excited over a ten year old game. :D

These are so awesome! I know I've seen plaid cotton boxers before, and they make way more sense than the fugly Maxis ones. Yay!

Thank you for fixing these! I agree they do look more plastic than silky and I'm happy to replace them with version 2! Love the dark waistband. :)
