i love the selection of bio pet skins now but would love to see some flying pets in the future. peko peko, guliginaw, ect. krayts would be fun too 
.....and wouldnt it be cool if we could change the size of the pet too...like a rancor would have a max height of what it is now but its min height would be only slightly bigger than a baby.then we could chose anywhere in between.could have it as an option next to the color screen.
just some ideas from a bio who hasnt been able to play in awhile

I think there's been request for the flyin ones, I think counter arguments are that they maybe too fast, but they would be cool. Maybe just the small little birdies (I know Talus got some), so we can color em, and make custom ones. Plus, some of the snake critters would be cool too...I'm not so sure about the size issue thou...
But here's an idea I was thinking on my way to work...NPC CLONES! The creation process would be the same, createa Generic Template, and then throw it in a skin, like a Human skin, or a Bith skin, or a Ithorian skin. But they can only be used as furniture, dropped in a house, or maybe even a city. Then you can have issues of how you can cloth 'em, and maybe even have Image Designers customize their look (although this would probably be hard for the non player species one.
It would make some people's stores a little cooler, instead of havin' droids or whatever, you can populate with "NPC" customers and such. You can make your cantina's look busier and such. You can maybe even make em decay, like the new candles that will come in publish 7.

i figure since people can come in different heights then why not pets?

Or at least have creature size maybe tied to CL. So you the big badies look big

I've thought the same. On the flying creatures and sizes. It would seem only right to be able to make some kind of flying pet. And the size issue has always urked me, I mean we can't make a cat the size of a Greater Sludge Panther (enlarged razor basically), These ideas are truely pondered by prolly many of bio's and is cussed about as well. As a Master BE I beleive there is no skin of creature we should not be able to use. Of course put restrictions on the skins as they have now with the CL as far as minimum levels you can use. And as far as the NPC clones would be nice but highly doubtfull. For one we would have to get samples of other either NPC's or PC's for the process. And knowing how SOE works if they did do it more than likely it would either take away from a stat when you are sampled or even kill you with skill degeneration..There way to compensate for Human cloning the risk of getting human samples and what it could do to your speciman that you will get the sample from..I don't think your going to be able to walk up to someone without being noticed mask scent dont work for NPC or PC's. So more than likely it would have to be a willing human speciman and willing to take the risk of real dmg to the charecter if your sampling roll is off that day. But a cool idea, just think we would have to harvest meat prolly from NPC's to do it as well. And they say we don't have fun haha. /emote begins harvesting RK-107. Now that would be a site to see.

I REALLY like the idea of BEs being able to customize the pets size. I get so many people who ask me if I can make a pigmy bantha and such.
I'd love to have a Kimogila that stays baby sized.
