So here we come to the Freqently Asked Questions, which will hopefully cover near enough anything you need to know.
How many people will read this before contacting me, asking me something that has been asked here, I don't know. But it is here anyway.
Now, here we go, the following are all real* questions I've been asked, click the links to jump:

Well, since you didn't tell me what error it was, you're making it difficult for me.
But I'm going to guess you haven't installed the Microsoft .NET Framework v2 or newer.
Hop to it!
You seem to have forgotten to unZip the file you downloaded. I suggest you try it! ☺
You are not. This program RECOVERS keys from the registry, it does not generate them.
Actually, it does now! Hit "Options" and then "Display", you'll find the toggle there.
In this case it is a short representation of a file, if you can read MD5 hashes, you can use it to check that the file you downloaded is not corrupted. The MD5s should match. If you can't, then you most likely don't need to know. Failing that, download the file again if you have suspicions. Remember to clear out your cache.
I'd love to - but can you imagine how many emails I would get?!
XP and Vista both readily open Zips out-of-the-box, plus there are plenty of easy how-tos on Zips out there in webland.
Rar/Ace/7z - not-so-much.
No, as far as I know, the first person to do it was jedlester204, many people asked how the upload effect was achieved, but I never heard of anyone getting a reply.
So I set off to discover how to do it myself - which I did.
To my knowledge, I was the first person to publically spill the beans on how to do it. Now there are guides all over the place.
This is great! Although it would be nice if when copy and pasting my guide, you at least give me a credit!
Yes I did back in mid 2006, but that technique used SimPE, was horrifically complicated, could only change the background of the upload and would eventually kill Sims 2. Requiring you to recover a core game file from a backup you never made. So I took it down, since the method up now, does it much more simply and will at worst, kill your upload and Body Shop until you delete the files you changed.
Find yourself a nice big file to download, say a HUGE lot from the Sims 2 Exchange, set it going. You should now have time.
Read this entire page and you will find out!
I am, I just like messing with your head!
Okay, so actually what I mean is, I'm too lazy to change the Cascading Style Sheet.
* Okay, I made some of them up, hopefully they answered a question or raised a smile. With that said, since you've managed to find your way here, and if your question is not answered, or you just want to say "thanks", you can contact me using the information just a little below.
A note to non-Windows users - this site is aimed at the Windows version of The Sims 2. Mac users will find that my Sims 2 Key Printer will not work for them.
I have no idea how the Mac version of Body Shop works, so best of luck if you're attempting my Custom Picture Upload Tutorial.
