Usually I'm not attracted to Maxis recolors, but this kinda just drew me in. Weird. I've always wanted phone recolors, deep inside my heart, I guess.

I'd never have thought of telephone recolors... That boring old phone looks interesting now.

If I begged enough would you recolour the desk phone too?

Done. The recolors work on both phones.
Of course you probably know that by now if you put these in your game. :D

Ah, of course. I should have realized. I recoloured a sofa, and the recolour worked for the couch and the loveseat.

Where's my head at?

Thanks again.

Maybe instead you can do the phone that comes with Pets

Would, but I only have the base game installed on this computer and my other computer is being fixed. Sorry

I'm pretty sure you can use these recolors in the expansion packs. I think they will take on the properties of whatever EP you have installed. They work in Uni.

Oh my goodness. Thank you so much. I was so tired of seeing that Maxis phone that rarely matches anything. >.<

OMG!!! Real colors! You mean I'll actually be able to find my phones now?!? Thanks so much. There are only so many times you can curse that bland default phone and I passed my limit ages ago! To heck with matching. I just want a phone that stands out so I can find it. LOL

I always have the same exact problem, so these are a welcomed change.

In order to change the handsets, you must click on the handset seperately. First choose the phone, then go to buy mode and click on the handset, you should be able to change it. Hope it works.

I like these and I always have to find them on line everytime I have to reinstall the game, which is often with VISTA

Have not heard good things about VISTA. Glad you like the phones. I got tired of looking at the same one, that's why I did these. :D

Default Headsets have no colors
Theres no mesh for the headsets. Is it possible to have these uploaded? I love the phone base colors, but I would love to have the colors for the headsets too.

Thanks, Tiggs

These are recolors of the Maxis telephone. No meshes are needed. If you have any game loaded before Bon Voyage, the hand set has to be changed separately. Buy the phone, put it in the game. Go to live mode. The phone is there, but the handset is the wrong color. Go back into buy or build mode and click on the handset only. It will offer the color changes to you. Click on the color of your choice. This should work for you. :D
