Al ot of the produce items look warped and strange looking, compared to what it looks like in the sims inventory.

I also noticed the produce stands from City Living don't sell the produce that came with Seasons.

Yeah, think a new thread for that would be better. (as this is about thumbnails and the other about missing items, if I understand you correctly)

@SproutLee I do see thumbnails in a variety of styles - I think the grand meal list is the one that stands out most because only one thumbnail looks different from the rest, but it is a breakfast, whereas the others are dinners, so I don't know that a different style for a different type of meal is so unexpected.  I also think what's happening with the produce stand thumbnails is they are being squeezed a bit on the vendor menu, probably an automatic part of the coding to get the display to fit in the window they want it in; it reduces the resolution of the items.  I think this report needs feedback from more players bothered by the issues, since they are so small.

I don't think that's how they meant that though. In the regular cook menu, all of the food items look the same, even breakfast items. Idk just thought I should mention it, even though it's small.
