I really wish most of the recolors for the echo rugs ere available for the maxis ones
The maxis rugs are pretty hard to recolour because of the way they're mapped. The round ones do not have a round texture, it just have a 1/4 pizza slice which repeats. That means you can't edit the alpha much to make funny shapes, or just make a solid coloured rug and smack a pretty picture in the middle.
But I agree; I still prefer the maxsis rugs.
