Most artists that visit my website are not yet a member. has anyone created a page that makes it clear that they need to register prior to adding themselves as an artist? They see the not authorized screen and then leave the site or send us messages.
I would like to be more obvious or even combine registration in the same step as creating an artist. I look forward to your ideas, recommendations, etc.

0hello,
well.. to combine the two things is complicated. would need quite some customization work...
my suggestion is that you post a very clear, visible module or notice or whatever that says that they must be registered to add artists
another suggestion: you can change the "you are not authorized to add artists" message to be more clear, telling that they need to register, even including a link to register..
you can do this directly on the language file.
there is still another thing you can try, but requires small code modification: to change the "redirect" page so, if they're not registered, they are redirected to the register page.
if you want to do this, let me know, I'll tell you how.

0hello
the file you're looking for is /components/com_muscol/controller.php
this redirections are made at the beginning. for example on line 54 approx there's the redirection for non-registered:
$link = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_muscol&view=artists' . $itemid);
you can change it to:
$link = JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_users' );
