I have created some very good items and I feel even though I'm getting great feedback for them, they will be removed in 3 days (unless I resubmit them later), and never get bought/used because SO MANY SUBMISSIONS ARE HAPPENING SO FAST, AUCTIONS STARTING SO SLOW(ONE AT A TIME) AND NONSENSE POPULARITY VOTING AND RATING OF EVERY ITEM, WHETHER IT' GOOD OR NOT!!

Another Note about this topic I'm thinking:
As more things and things are getting auctioned the prices will be more realistic, I consider must of the jacked up prices are because everyone wants to be "first" to have a new item!! The Freshiness effect of it will wear off soon!
Also, maybe Quit the Auction Nonsense and maybe even the plus/negs, just let everyone be able to purchase their own shop or something and start selling any design(within the guidelines) they want, and Tengaged come up with limited edition items on a X amount of days basis or something!
REGARDING ROYALITY RIGHTS FOR ITEM DESIGNERS AND AUCTIONING SYSTEM!!

In Regards to REVENUE to the Design Maker!
I think it's extremely INSANE for all designes that are Auctioned off and have a high bid....that the only profit they make is the STARTING BIG (per Design Labs Help page)
Note: I am aware of the indirect indication as you become an more established seller and make more items that are auctioned, the starting bid increases thereforth you the Design Maker gets more T$ revenue.
BUT THIS IS MY PROBELM AND ESPECIALLY WITH SOME SELLER'S INTIAL FIRST DESIGN THAT GO TO AUCTION(!!) IS THIS:
Why should an Designer make a kick butt Avatar Item to only make (on Average 5T$) in their initial Auction sells? I would rather if I created some very good like this, I would rather it not sell at all, me keep the item, and not earn the measily 5 T$
My Suggestion is that, the Item Designer makes the final sale price, or a perecntage of, or the final sale minus a fixed predetermined fee (like sellter fees on Ebay) for Tengaged's conveniue and clear out some of the Tengaged T$ Cash flow/inflation.
CONCLUSION: I THINK IT IS EXTREMELY UNFAIR FOR ANY ITEM DESIGNER TO MAKE A MEASILY 5 OR SO T$ IN THEIR FIRST INITAL AUCTIONS REGARDLESS OF HOW GOOD THE ITEM IS ESPECIALLY WHEN SOME TIMES ARE SUPER TIMES BETTER THAN OTHERS AND MORE QUALITY WORK/ORIGINAL.....
I THINK THE ITEM DESIGNER SHOULD GET REWARDED BASED ON HOW WELL THE ITEM SELLS, PERIOD!!
Keep in mind, as more and more items are introduced/auction become available, ORIGINALITY will greatly deminished and LESS QUALITY ITEMS WILL ENTER THE AUCTION MARKET IF USERS ARE NOT GETTING WELL REWARDED FOR THEIR ARTWORK TIME/QUALITY OF WORK!!
Please post your comments on this, and if anyone has anyway of letting Randomize see this, please do so!!!
