I see the same people on the "featured list with 2 or 3 sets being featured. I have had 2 featured since I joined, do you have to be in contest or something to have your set featured? I feel like I will never be good enough. It's very discouraging to see people with the same kind of set have 2 or 3 each week or even each day?

Hi FJG, Where do you see the "Get Inspired" I can't say I remember seeing that? -
@joeanne thank you for saying something. I haven't wanted to say anything but just today I was counting the same folks having 4 to 6 sets on the featured page. Same people

@sustainablejaney
Your welcome Jane.
Like you I've noticed for ages and yeah didn't want to say anything!
When it comes down to it we to help Urstyle make sales by contributing so why shouldn't we get the same advantages as others. -
URStyle administrators originally said that the sets on the featured page are chosen by an algorithm based on whether or not the set contains their items. I'm not sure how this works.
-
@SustainableJaney I'm really glad you said something....I have noticed this happening for quite a long while. I've felt like I'm not very good at this on many occasions. Thanks for bringing up the topic

@shelley-harcar so how in the world do you know what is urstyle's stuff? By shopping on their page? This doesn't seem right. I hope urstyle will clarify why these folks have their sets on the pages next to each other, the same sets featured again??? I don't understand. Thank you for responding, I am glad I am not alone. Jane
-
@shelley-harcar I am not a judge however I have seen sets featured that I question b/c I work even harder to try & make better sets in the details & such to no avail.
-
@funkyjunkygypsy has anyone from urstyle given you an answer to this question? I look again today & see again the same folks. Thank you for your help. After my name it says INDESIGN in the box. Is that a reason
-
@shoaleh-nia Thanks for sharing the "get inspired" link...love browsing this section and it's how I discover new users and their work. xx

A featured set must receive at least 5 likes within 24 hours to be considered for featuring.
Points are awarded for:
- Each like received
- Unique comments under the set
- Extra points for including products from URSTYLE, available under the shop tab or directly in Create mode (note that fewer points are awarded for using only self-uploaded products)
- New users (those who created an account less than a week ago) will receive a bonus.
More followers at URSTYLE means more likes and comments under your sets.
I am planning to add more items to the Shop tab and make some adjustments to the algorithm in the near future.

@admin Thank you so much for all your support and hard work!

@funkyjunkygypsy Thank you so much now I know why. I still don't think it's right to have one person have 3-5 sets on there. It's a messed up algorithm.

@sustainablejaney Polyvore wasn't a #selling site, I guess welcome to the world of capitalism & not a artistic venue.
-
@sustainablejaney No, they sold themselves ;D and now another popular Polyvore-like site is going to be sold. I know that because the same company asked us about the possibility of buying URSTYLE, but I did not agree.
-
@admin Thank you so much for not selling URSTYLE!! I appreciate all you do to keep the site up and running. You must put a lot of work into maintenance, updates, and other things we don't know about. You have created a great website! I hope it continues for many years, and I wish you success in all your future endeavors.
