You only confirmed the theories that those who have already gained some popularity are now better off. I also do not complain - my downloads have doubled since the new Gallery. Unfortunately, this is not fair to those who have never won the Maxis prize and have zero friends because they do not understand how it is needed at the start.
By the way - if it's about nominations, let's face it - it is - with very small exceptions - club of mutual adoration.
I still do believe that everyone has a chance on the gallery because if one observes, unknown players get between 20-30 DLs on their sims which was mpossible in the old gallery. I was lucky if I got over 50 Dls and 100 was the stars and moon for me even with 900 followers. And again, speaking of "hearts" aka likes was even harder to reach.
My experience, and it would seem that of a lot of posters here, has been the exact opposite. My uploads since the update have received far fewer downloads (with one exception, but that's probably due to the fact that it has 'starter home' in the title and a lot of players search for those specifically). With the old gallery, I used to at least get 20 or so DLs on a build. Now with my most recent build, I had 1 the last time I checked. And it's a much better build than some I've made in the past that got far more DLs.
