Wow big day for us all here at the CSN. We're very proud to announce first of all that artists SithyChan (of Happy Simz), Tuilinde and Heledir (of Queen Camelia) join us as full members today. I hope you will pop by their websites and have a look at some fo the fantastic skins and meshes being produced.

I couln't be happier to welcome them to the CSN team as they bring an injection of new creativity and some renewed creative vigor to the whole Sims skinning arena. Join us in the forums to welcome both sites. Each of course have their own feedback forums here at the CSN and they would all love to hear from you about their work! (Feedback: Happy Simz / Queen Camelia )

In addition to the arrival of our new members, sadly one long-time member, Anime4Ever has shut down recently. Her skins are now available here at the CSN in our own skin archive. Click through to the Skins section for downloads from Celsia's fantastic site.

And to top it all off, the CSN hit 4 years old at the end of last month, so what better way to celebrate than with the arrival of new members and the addition of fine skins to our growing hosted archive. Thank you to everyone who has supported the CSN over the last 4 years, I hope you've enjoyed yourselves and I hope to be here for another 4! A very big thank you goes out to the CSN member sites and webmasters without whom there wouldn't be a CSN. Your hardwork and dedication to the community over these years is most appreciated!
