Alright...so recently I've downloaded some pre-made sims.
They were all in package files, and the directions said to put them in the "saved sims" folder in the documents/electronicarts/thesims3/savedsims.

I think that's the directory...I hope you get the point lol.

Well anyways, I have already done that to a few pre-made sims and they do show up in the game.
But these new ones I downloaded aren't showing up in the sim bin.

Am I doing something wrong? And correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the sim bin the little area in CAS with all the faces? The button right about the "redo and undo" buttons?

Help is much needed! :D
