Downloads- Misc - Blank Bubbles

Magic Bubbles? No! Sims3 Scream, Thought, and Speech bubbles! Totally blank for you to fill in with whatever you desire!

For this chapter I knew I'd never be able to find the right words or be able to pick a POV to focus on, then realized I'd need to rely pretty heavily on thought bubbles to help me tell some of the story if it was going to be silent. The icons from the game are out there and fairly easy to get ahold of but blank thought bubbles that didn't clip into a sims head? That was different. And I know it's pretty easy to match the gradient and make your own. Finally, realizing I would never be able to find a blank one that didn't clip I used the Fog Emitter and did it myself. I then scrubbed out the icon and matched the gradient on each of these to make perfect bubbles to put in my own icons and on my own sims. But perhaps there are other story tellers who want to do this too and just haven't had the time to scrub out blanks. If you think this might be useful, then this is for you.

This download consists of 7 total .png images. A single and double scream bubble. A single and a double speech bubble. And a single and a double thought bubble plus an image of the thought leaders. These images are purposely huge so that when you shrink them down with the photo editor of your choice the bubbles are nice and crisp. To make them look even more realistic, erase a tiny crescent from where the bubble (or leader) meets your sims head. Plop your icon on top and voila! Fun with bubbles begins!








 
 
 
 
I hope there is someone out there who will end up using these in some way to help tell their story.

  1. I do love these! And yes, they are very useful, it was a brilliant idea on your part to come up with using them this way. I used one of these in my upcoming chapter, can't wait for you to see it!
