omg yes!! I love this set! quite dark colours chosen though, LOVE the design, specially the umbrellas!

I want that. *0*
But I can't have it.

There is something that make me dizzy when I look at the preview. Specially the Crimson one.
It may well be that it has stripes and squares and spirals all together, I dunno.

I can't really say whether I like it or not.
I think I'll like all the items separately, specially in Midnight Purple and Blue Iris, but as a set they are a bit too blinding for me.

Will buy them anyway, for my collection, so probably my feedback is of the most useless kind

so pretty <3

But looking at the placing thread when the winners were announced it seems that you skipped a placing. You did Vin's set first, which had gotten first place, then Jess who got second. Then you did Ninja Ai's set which had gotten third followed by Lunar Night Twilight's set which was fourth. The next set should have been Wilth's set which was fifth but instead you did Rabbit_Labyrinth's set which was sixth. I'm wondering why it is that a higher ranked set was skipped.

As I already wrote in the Contest Announcement: "I do not know yet whether all of the winners' entries will be turned into Treasure Trove items, but I will try to make at least the Top 3".

Treasure Trove Items are extremely important to us because the whole site's existence depends on their popularity. I always look at how many of each Treasure Trove set were bought to see how well received they were, and from past experience I can tell that sets that consist of clothing/accessory only, without any body parts or backgrounds, are among the most unpopular, while sets containing eyes, hair, skin or wings are among the most popular.

Wiltherel's set, which would have been next in line, consists of a dress, a necklace and a hairclip and lacked any kind of item that would - at least judging from past experience - make it really popular. We are doing very poorly with donations, so a lot depends on this Treasure Trove update and I did not wish to take the risk and preferred to make a set that at least contained hair and therefore felt a bit "safer".

This does not mean that Wiltherel's set won't possibly be turned into a Treasure Trove set at some point, just not when we are in such a critical state with donations. ( And please keep in mind that from the beginning I only ever promised to turn the top 3 into sets)

And before anyone thinks/states that the rank of the winners position should indicate that Wiltherel's set should be more popular that RabbitLabyrinth's - Unfortunately it is not as easy as that. The previous entries that were turned into TT sets also did not sell accordingly to their rank in the contest.
