#1  Expanded Painting and Photography Possibilities!

The new photography skill has some aspects that are going to really expand customization in my homes and sims' lives.  

For example, the new selfie interface on the smart phones, which may also turn those friend selfie interactions into usable pictures, but that is not confirmed that I know of.
