About this guide
NOTE: This guide is not meant to trash on mods, heck I love mods... but lets be frank a lot of the poster ones out there currently are very questionable in content and quality. Still the game has a system in place just for making your own posters and wall art in the game. So lets get started.
Choosing a picture
Choosing a picture to add in is pretty simple, all you have to do is find one you like and download it to your computer. I suggest putting them in a directory where you will remember them, something custom named will do. PNGs and JPGs tend to work best for format. Note Transparency's will always have a black background so sorry no transparent images allowed. The example below is being done with a transparent image. Note sometimes it will show up as while for the background, I believe this is done by the game trying to figure out how to best display a transparent image.
How to upload the picture
This part is pretty simple. First open up your tablet in game then select camera.


Next on the right side select the image icon below the camera icon.



Then finally select this image below, not the pixel size limits is 2k x 2k. So if you want a wide or tall picture you can do that by adjusting the size of it before uploading it here.



If this works the image should now be uploaded and appear next to the Add Photo button.
Making the image part of your house art.
Now that it's uploaded lets make it part of the hose art. I choose a simple square image for this as seen here, when it is selected by pressing the button of the image you just uploaded.



Now you can see here you have a simple slider and buy button. THe slider is set to default to 1m x 1m. Now I adjusted it to be 1/2m x 1/2 and after selecting buy icon I can place it in the scene as seen here.


Options
Now there are a few options to this.

  • The first is the AutoFit which is normally checked, this will strech the image to fit your desired in world size.
  • You can place the image anyplace just like a normal in game art. You can also delete it and rebuy it if your not happy about the size.

Nope it's a default feature, no unlocking needed to my knowledge. Admittedly a game update could have changed things since I made the guide.

Hi, does this need to be unlocked or something? I started playing recently and when I tried to follow your instructions there was no second icon to click under the camera. Just wondering if there's something I missed. TIA

Might be the image quality, try and see if you can up the resolution to see if that fixes it.

Everytime I choose a picture, it shows up as a low res red question mark. anyone know a fix?
