Selcouth is retiring :( (And a few other staff changes)

Postby Tess » Wed Jan 09, 2013 2:22 pm

Many of you will know of Selcouth, who has been an official artist for CS since 2008!

Selcouth is a very talented artist with a unique art style which makes his art easily recognizable around the site. I'm sure nearly ever user reading this will have at least 1 pet or item that was made by Selcouth.

Unfortunately, Selcouth is retiring this month, but he's left us with an incredible set of items which are coming to the store today. There are also several other unreleased items from Selcouth which will be coming out later in the year :) We hope that he'll find some time to visit us as a guest artist in the future!

Let's all show our appreciation for the contributions Selcouth has made for us over the years and wish him luck with his future as a professional graphic artist :clap:

We also have a couple of other updates to the team: WildDragonfly has retired from the General Helpers after many years of providing friendly help for her fellow CS users. And Coalchaser has rejoined the Moderators after a period of absence :)

    Selcouth:

    I've never spoken to you, but back when I was newer I saw many of your posts to the CS GSA which I found inspirational -I started poking around on these threads soon after- that I doubt I'll ever forget. ^^ Surprisingly, this actually played a role in finally getting over my typical teenage gender identity crisis, and I thank you for that.

    Otherwise, your pets and items were beautiful, and I can only hope you'll come back as a guest artist. c: You're incredibly talented and I wish you good luck in whatever you're doing. ^^

    Also, your store items today are beautiful! <3
    RPGing is my life since I discovered Final Fantasy, I shall with time get every item released today.

From the moment their hearts start beating
It's unpleasant but people take their place
and they continued to protect it so that it cannot be taken

The hands I tried to keep clean still seem dirty
Before I am doubtful of the memory,
it is the memory that is doubtful of me

Surely we will meet
following the sound of the same heartbeat


When my tired reasons pile up, swaying
I learn the meaning of my birth

Selcouth used to be Hoshiko, right? Oh goodness, I feel old now for remembering when he became an artist XD and a professional graphic artist? O.O good luck!

Selcouth and WildDragonfly, Thank you for everything you contributed to CS!

And welcome back Coalchaser!

edit: either I misread something or the post got edited after I posted xD edited to fix mistakes

Limiting CS time 'til June 2013 ^^; |||| Will often be on phone |||| Timezone: EDT (4 hours behind CS Time)

    Hey!
To select batches of pets at once, click one check box, then hold the shift key while you click another checkbox. All of the pets in between those two will be selected.
You're welcome. xD

To display a pet without items, add &noitems=1 right before the .jpg in the image URL.

Have a pet dated December 18, any year, or December 24, 2011? Go check the archives for that pet; it may be more valuable than you thought!

There is a fine line between auctions and trades! Just because someone overpaid in an auction doesn't mean everyone should overpay in a trade!
