How FA's are selected

I've been asked to clarify how Featured Artists are selected, since a lot of people seem to think it is an automatic process.

FA's are handpicked based on quality, originality and quantity. We try to offer the broadest possible collection of creations for our subscribers and thus we want to make sure we have top notch quality content for all categories: hair, furniture, lots, sims, makeup, meshes etc. When we notice there is a lack of output in a given category we will look among our artists here on TSR first to see if someone is capable of filling that position. Our Select Artists are the first to be reviewed and chosen from.

In rare cases we need to go outside of TSR to find a suitable artist to fill a position, for example when it comes to "specialist" creation types such as hairstyles and meshes. If we have SA's or new Artists here that are top quality in those fields they get the promotion first. But sometimes the quality is not high enough, the creations are not original enough or the output is too low - then we need to recruit outside of TSR. This is historically the exception rather then the rule however.

I hope this gives you a little insight in how we select our Featured Artists, and why some selections may be upsetting to some people while there are logical reasons behind it.

I found BlueSoup's neighborhood terrains all right, but when I clicked on her profile it took me to this page.

So, BlueSoup no longer exists, but her terrain is still fair game.

[Plum]

This user does no longer exist.

xD

[Solowren]

BlueSoup got TSR-lynched.

[midnitefusion]

I never liked TSR.. Never posted at their forums. Sucks that you got your account suspended though.

[Marhis]

On TSR BlueSoup is a ghost; if you press the thank you link on the hood page you get this:

 

You didn't know, BlueSoup, but you appreciated my feedback!  :lol:

Even more funny is the fact that your hood terrains are pay   .

[Cherry Lips]

I deeply detest TSR uploading system. Once I waited a month and hairstyle I submitted was "Pending". Then I took it down. UGH.

[Got_Nerd]

Completely off topic : Bluesoup!  I didn't know that was your terrain!
It's one of the best I've downloaded

[BlueSoup]

My hood terrain is pay!!?!!!

Whatever, go to MTS2 and get it for free!

And Got_Nerd - thanks.

[lemmiwinks]

So much for the rights of creators to control their work.  :roll:

TSR just want to keep the downloads, because they need something to charge us for

[Jysudo]

now this is really weird. Bluesoup is not a FA so why are her downloads paid? This is very weird?!  :shock:

[Quinctia]

The majority of all downloads on TSR are paid.  I know it used to be that every week or so, a certain percentage of items would be free, and then it would change for the next week.  So theoretically, if you hung around long enough, everything you wanted would cycle into "free" and you could get it without a sub.

I don't know if they still do it that way or not.  I haven't really seen anything I wanted to download there in ages.  The one exception is cheap starter houses.  For when I'm lazy or filling up a neighborhood with characters that I don't really think I'll play much.

[coliss]

Huh, I've just downloaded it, so it's not a pay download. TSR turned into "a free website except for the good stuff, i.e. FA & RA" a month ago or something.

So you are saying Blue's stuff isn't good?  :lol:
