Basically this.

Maybe some time in the future, once we get the wardrobe v8, they'll consider re-adding that good ol' feature.

I never agreed with them switching it to CWs in the first place. It was so clearly a money grab because they had tattoos as a relatively cheap sP option years ago.

  1. The old system wasn't built for the skins system (zombies, zapper), especially when they switched over to the new moveable skins system.
  2. Users were already submitting tattoos or tattoo-esque CW's.
  3. It was easier to switch it over to CW's and focus on working on other things than have a broken system taking up space and having users demand it be focused on (while simultaneously asking why other things aren't getting focused on).
  4. At the time the parlor was closed, Keith said it may come back at a later date but wasn't sure.
  5. Could it have been broken down differently ? Yes. Does this automatically make it a money-grab ? No. Users wanted tattoos, staff figured a way to keep the option. (Sorry for the layout of this post, I don't feel up to stringing these into a coherent paragraph)

They took a feature that was like, 100k sP and turned it in to a 40 dollar feature. Yeah no, no interest there

The prices varied. I know they were cheaper, but they did vary. You could only go up to a certain amount of pixels (cw's have a higher amount of coverage). Pretty sure you could only wear one. 4 bucks, actually. 5 if they are doing the base +100 for slots. 15 if you're doing direct-to-cs (hey, good way to do exclusive-only-mine items). Unless you want ten of them for yourself, or you're buying some super exclusive one. Still more expensive, yes, but it's not 40 bucks for a single one. I agree that it should have been broken down into different prices, but sorry to say it's really not money grabbing.

Well, to be fair all base edits are 5k CSC to submit no matter what they are. Even things like cat ears (or hell, elf ears) that would fall into probably the 3k category size-wise are 5k. And CW tattoos have room to be a lot more versatile than one that's stuck to your base 24/7 or needs to be reuploaded every time you change it.

I see where you're coming from because a similar thing was available for so long for a miniscule amount of sP but I also kind of prefer allowing CW tattoos instead.

Given that's the main reason I don't do CW tattoos, YES. SUPPORT.

Still waiting on this even though I gave up on having an actual human avatar showing. Tattoos are life! Be like real life where smaller things are cheap and full pieces are pricey
