**snicker** Wow! From a Confussed Newbie to Webmaster Canidate in about a month! I guess my gift for rambeling posts is finally gonna start paying off!

**snicker, again**
(I just answered this in a PM, but thought I would post it here just in case anyone else if having this problem to...)
One you have Unzipped the file into the-folder-of-your-choice, take a peak inside that folder.
There should be an Icon in there (along with lots of other do-dads) that calls itself an EXE program or an APPLICATION for the patch in question. (If memory serves it looks like a little computer, actually.)
In order to use the Nude Patch
you must first trigger this program with a double-click to make it "active" in The Sims. Otherwise it isn't "really" installed yet, it's just Unzipped & sitting around in a folder on your PC, makeing you feel like a complete & total moron for not understanding why it won't "work" in your game. (Don't ask how I know this.....

)
Once you do the "double-click" thing, (depending on the Version of the Patch you have) one or both of the following should happen:
A) The faithfull Installation Wizzard will do it's thing, and/or
B) You will see a little pop-up window with a box (boxes) next to something like Cersor Blur on/off. (Depending on the version of the Patch, you may be able to remove/replace the blurrs on Adults, Kids and/or Pets, aswell as other strange things.)
Putting a check mark in this box (these boxes) will activate/de-active the effect in question.
That should do it! (If it doesn't, let me know and I will do somemore digging. As one of the few Sims 1 players left, I like to help out whenever I think I can!)

Oh yes- I almost forgot: Make
sure that the version you downloaded (there are a few available) is okay to run with the Expainsion Packs you have installed! (This is
very important!) The different EXP's added their own subtle little quirks (a programer would say "enhancenments") to The Sims game. This is especially true when dealing with Unleashed, Super Star & Makin Magic! (Some of the programs I have even make a distinction between different
combinations of Expansion packs!) Just make sure that the version you got is etheir okay for your newest EXP (or combination) or says it will run no matter what you're playing. It will save you lots of headaches! (Again, do NOT ask how I know this....

)
