survivors of the polyvore apocalypse?
-
Hey! Here from Polyvore, does anyone know about this site? I legit just signed up after hearing about it in passing, anyone have a good grasp on what's the go with it? How long has it been around etc.
Wow still so mad about the polyvore/sensse thing (or however it's spelt) so if anyone wants to have a rant with me please do, though i imagine a lot of you are over it by now haha, my friends weren't on polyvore so i have noone to vent to! Still mad!
I was 'asha' didn't have a real big following so you wont recognize me, but I was on that site foreeeeeeeever
Anyway, hoping to just get that creative outlet back, and find some cool art-style-fashion from the other users.

i was wesker on polyvore!! still mourning the loss of 5 years of creations but im grateful that ive been able to at least import my sets :') anyone have any idea when the clipper will be implemented?
-
@wesker first version of a clipper is up, now. Please check the News section of the forum
-
@wesker Hello! I imported my sets, that was glorious. However, I created 2 new sets, hit "SAVE" and nothing showed up under my sets. Did I do something wrong? It's very, very slow on here, perhaps with all of the PV sets being uploaded? I haven't tried the "clipper" yet, but I'm already confused. So far, all I do is talk to fellow newly-adopted URSTYLE kids, and can't do much more. However, it was a good day today, all the positive vibes going on, progress pulling us up out of that Apocalypse as you so cleverly coined it!
-
@jcmp I think the website is just a little slow because of the demands on the server - there are a ton of people trying to upload sets, make sets, upload items, registering, etc. We all gotta be a little patient
-
@maggotpunk Yuuup. I just got a 503 - temporarily unavailable due to excessive load XD
-
@myrrael lol there are hundreds of people here from Polyvore - and I know people on Twitter have been talking about this website allowing you to import your sets so I'm sure that's attracting even more.
-
@maggotpunk hundreds of people uploading thousands of sets each lol
-
@myrrael may the creators of urstyle forgive us lol
-
@maggotpunk I think with this much traffic they will forgive us the headache of dealing with said traffic. ;D
-
@myrrael I hope that they keep getting a lot of users! I've been telling people about both this and Shoplook. They deserve it tbh
-
@maggotpunk Same. I've been looking at the alternatives, and like this site the best.
-
@myrrael I tried Trendme and it looked very very similar to Polyvore but it was practically unusable. And then I tried Shoplook but they're primarily fashion based and I need something where I can make art sets because that's more important to me than the fashion side. And then I found this place and I'm liking it so far. Especially with how fast they're moving, I'm impressed.
-
@maggotpunk Yup, that impressed me a lot, as well! They're seriously on it. I just can't imagine the chaos at their side right now, though. I hope they're managing.

Hi there, brave survivors! I am Patricia, aka Je Suis un Lapin (jesuisunlapin), a Polyvore member for 9 years. I’m very happy to see so many familiar faces here!
-
What functions does Shoplook have compared to this site? How does it compare overall?
-
I was glitterfilledfairytales, active for 8 years. If anyone at all recognizes the name do reach out!
-
@neon It's super basic. It's only for women's fashion, so they only have those items and they're really limited (they must partner with specific brands/sites). There's no flipping or cropping of items, no collections, no groups, no messaging system. I know they're really trying to grab ex-polyvore members, and kudos to them for being so welcoming, but I think they have the same problem polyvore had and that's trying to get people to shop through their site. It's definitely geared more towards styling rather than creative expression.

Hii! I'm so happy to see many familiar usernames and icons here
I was laurajanekatriina on polyvore, basically same icon. Was on there for 8-9 years.
