Staff Picks has been around for a while.  i became more aware of them when my husband, structure, was helping Rendo w. P11 after the purchase from SM

[if ya have P11, i think you might see his moniker in the credits during boot-up.  and yes, i'm kind of bragging on him atm as he was so proud and pleased to be a part of something that would/could be a positive thing for the community.  he also was providing customer support in the Poser forum and via phone & email, as well as doing some light MP testing, all of which he loved being a part of, making a positive contribution as much as he could :)) ]

anyway, it used to be sort of an open type thing, images that got selected, but then the criterion for inclusion was truncated to only those images which allowed comments to be made on them [tho' at times that was waived - i know this because a couple of mine were chosen now and again which did not allow for comments], and for the image to be marked as usable by Rendo for marketing purposes.  i'm assuming that means use on social media sites, stuff like that [sorry, i can't stand social media].  also, because of that, though again, not always consistent, most nudie or risque type images would also not be necessarily eligible for inclusion for obvious and maybe legitimate reasons... hence maybe why your T&A  type series would not be chosen.  of course, i'm just guessing, so please, do not take my word as any reasonable indicator of absolute truth, yea?
