Hypothetical: Would you pay for an expansion that allowed us to construct our own dances and flourishes?
I ask this because I have a content proposal (not unlike my other content proposals) that I'd like to submit to the DEV team on how it could be done.
I know I would pay for it in a heartbeat, but basically I don't want to pour my heart into a content proposal that's on a subject no one's interrested in.

I would pay for an expansion pack that included things like Hutt Casino (I know this project has been cancelled - but if they thought they could sell it for $ I bet it would come back to life), Clothes specifically for entertainers (that only can be worn by entertainers) and quests that allowed us to trade in XP for more dances or songs etc.

I would certainly like to have that ability. I'm not sure I'd want to pay an extra $30 for that by itself, but I also doubt they ever would do it that way. In order to maximize sales, it only makes sense to put something for every profession into an expansion.
On the other hand, if we start asking now, maybe we could get it for our coming prof revamp.

Hmm tough... That would mean that unless you buy that expansion you would only get access to the base dances+flos... which I can see a few arguments against as that sort of ability should be given to us if it ever going to be done as part of our future revamp.
The other downside is if JUST an expansion for Ent related things... just not enough of us to make it worth while. It would have to be part of a larger expansion with a lot of different things added in... and even then I still lean towards the thought that such an ability should be part of the Ent dance line and the Dancer Profession. I would like to see in the future the ability for people to just go with what is there when they are talking or busy. But to have that ability to go beyond and really get creative. And to force people to pay for that ability to maybe learn that they just don't have what it takes to do that well... would just not seem right to me.

Nuff Said Make us an Expansion called Player Content Unleashed!
Image Designers could design their own hairstyles (Read link in my sig for more info)
Musicians could make variety of different styles of isntruments. No two instruments would look alike (Just please walk into a Music store in RL and you will know what I mean)
Musicians could have a book of Riffs that go for a specific type of song/style. They can combine the riffs how they want. Get together with a band and make a sheet music that each person can get a copy of. They can edit each persons a bit to add in solos and stuff.
Dancers ...well I dont know how you could give dancers their own Content. Maybe make tons of flourishes and they can all be avialable for anyprofession. For example.
/folkflourish 1;/pause 3; /rhythmic2flourish 4;/macro customdance
or something.
Image Designers can make logos and flags for PAs and buisnesses (read signature link)

Yes of course.
And if you could upload your own midi files with it even the muscicians would pay.

**laughs**
That would be awesome - being able to develop your own flourishes and dance moves (and the musical compositions for our talented musos)!! I would love nothing more than to express a piece of music using movements outside our flourish structures.
**start limbering up**
However, I'm not sure how that would work programming wise - could it be too much info for the servers to handle or integrate? Anywho, I doubt the devs would implement anything like that - lets face it, we the dancers with ourability to be artisitic and creative (along with those huge wishlists we have - well, there is a saying: "If you want something done...")would prollyput them to shame or out of work **laughs**
Still, its something I know many of us have been dreaming about for a long time - I sure know I'd love to share my choreography and dance with people here
