Direct to Cash Shop CWs!
We are excited to announce a new way to submit custom wearables -- thanks to user suggestion, we have implemented a way for users to submit their custom wearables directly to the cash shop!
When you submit a CW, you now have the option to submit your custom item directly to the Cash Shop without first creating a batch of slots. The item will still go to the queue and through the normal critiquing process. If it is accepted, one copy of the item will be placed in your inventory, and it will be placed in the Cash Shop immediately. You will not be able to remove your item from the Cash Shop manually. It will remain there for 90 days, after which time it will be retired.
The cost for submitting you item directly to the cash shop is 1000 CSC + the cash shop cost of an item. For example, a wig will be 1600; a small accessory will be 1300. This is great for not being able to fill slots, or for those of you that want a copy of your item but do not necessarily want to wait until 10 slots are filled to get it - or do not want to pay for all the slots yourself, but do not mind it being placed in the cash shop!
Thanks for the great suggestion, everyone, and keep it coming - and we hope you all enjoy this new feature!

this is good :v
As someone who has interest in making CW's but not enough to tackle the slots/forums thing this is great news!
I may actually give CW's a try now. :)

ooooh, awesomeee! I have a few things I definitely wouldn't mind making but I'm way too lazy to deal with slotting!
Two questions:
Two questions:
- Can we submit several colors via this, or is there like a recolor limit, etc? I ask only because if something isn't a big seller I'm not sure if staff will want 10 recolors.
- Do submitters still get x amount of csc per sale?
This is a nice change. c:
@Arwen_Undomiel I would assume that commissioners and artists would probably have to figure that out for themselves ahead of time. Like if an artist's base price is 1000 csc and they know the person submitting wants to go this route, then they could bump up the price to 1500 csc to make up for it.
I mean really whenever an artist gets a "free" copy of an item, someone is always paying for it anyway.

@couture for now what i'm doing is in my commission info i'm saying that if you're using the straight-to-cash-shop function, you can either supplement the csc to purchase a copy or purchase one for me. i think that its doubtful that a stipulation for an artist's copy will be added in since there are no set rules that say an artist must get a copy of the CW they create (unfortunately). it would be awesome if it came with 2 copies instead of one, or something. but keep in mind that since the submitter gets a certain percentage (10? can't remember) of all purchases made, it is slightly cheaper for them to give you the CSC and you buy one, so it should all work out… i think.

Once it's retired, it's retired permanently, so if people want it, they better get it in those 90 days!

That's something you'll need to work out - perhaps the submitter can then purchase one from the cash shop for the artist. But that's something you have to work out yourselves!
Also I forgot to mention, but the submitter still gets another item after 10 have sold from the cash shop,too!

Now if only we can submit facials and have them permanently placed in the CS or some other sort of compromise... <3
(love this! super hope it works out c: )

I like this. I hate having to wait for slots to fill or buying them myself. I'd love to get some CWs done now.
what about those who are commissioners... the commissioner gets one item, but what about the artist?
Fantabulous! Now all I have to do is learn to draw...simple, no problem...yeah, right...:D
This is awesome and the way I personally believe Cw's should have been done from the beginning. Give or take a few tweaks. I'm exited to see some of the items that people put in that never would have made it onto the site. :)
