Ah, the all important treasury. How does it work, how are treasuries chosen for front page, did I make front page, is front page a conspiracy, what the heck is a treasury, why am I wearing black socks with my white sandals? So many questions, so few answers, until now....

What is the treasury and how do I get one?
The treasury is a showcase for your favorite items.

How are treasuries chosen for Front Page?
The lovely admin MaryMary answered this one...
Scroll halfway down

Did I make Front Page?
One way to check is to search this Flickr Group Pool by your etsy shop id... (be sure you're logged into flickr, there should be 201 screenshots thus far)
www.flickr.com/groups/etsyfrontpagers/
Not all screenshots are captured, but the ones that are are searchable by shop id with date/time/curator and featured artist details.

Is the Front Page a Conspiracy?
So many wonder, this may help answer your question; you be the judge. Click on "more" at the bottom of the first group of photos to enter the pool. At the bottom of the pool it says "The Top Five Group Tags." These are the curators chosen for front page. The more popular the tag, the more front pages they've made.

Why am I wearing black socks with my white sandals?
Uh, it was dark when you got dressed this morning?

Hope some of this was helpful. Have a loverly day!

I've got another treasury question, and I'm gonna show my ignorance by asking it. If there are only 333 treasuries allowed, then why is there almost 600 right now? What am I missing?

CharisDesign, that is so funny - and not a dumb question at all (at least to me, because I had the same one for months)!

I think that's just the way that they word it, but it really means that the number has to dip below 333 for new treasuries to be allowed.

Am I missing anything anyone?
