Image Designer Archive

I agree with having some sort of model for the clothing. The default female-only model looks godawful when you're trying to do wedding displays (Hi, we're in Massachusetts today). Also, some of the male-only features, like the tie on the suit shirt, will not show up on display. Some skirts look really really good on guys, but you woudn't know it unless you could try it.

Also - I KNOW this has been mentioned - I would love to be able to ID vendors. People get the ugliest vendors, and can't choose hairstyle, weight, etc. If they can wear pretty outfits, they should be able to be image designed.

As for why I decided to play an ID - that was the ONLY reason I was interested in this game! I wanted to tweak hair, skin color, etc. I spent hours on character creation, it was so much fun. And so far it's been great - people are picky, but it's their avatar and they don't have the option of saying after a couple hours - ummm naw, let's try that in blue. Sure, I've had my horror stories about people who stiff on the tip or bombard me in the starport with rude requests in atrocious grammar, but generally it's been great. Rarely does someone leave my tailoring shop without me remarking "good lord, do you MEAN not to have a chin?" and getting a tweak or two.

People think that image designer are "useless" but that's not true. This is an RPG. Character looks are CRUCIAL to roleplay. If you're not happy with your avatar, you're not happy with the game.

I took it because my friend wanted breast reduction surgery. I keep it because... I like being a master in something.

I came into the game wanting to be an Image Designer. On a personal level, I aspire to be a character designer for what have you so this is a great way to channel my creativity! And let's not ignore that I myself am an extremely fickle person. So I naturally need to be able to change myself on whim. I know I have a chronic problem with changing my skin color to the best tone for every outfit, lighting area, whatever just because I always want to look my best (I'm human by the way so skin color alterations aren't as drastic as Twi'lek). I love being able to customize myself and others. Helping people look there best has been one ofthe main reasons I still hang on to it. Let's not forget that I love it to pieces of course

I have a serious problem of wanting to change my toons look constantly and with ID i can do it all the time whenever I want..so it was a mandatory profession for someone like me

forgot to mention because its an excuse to touch people all day long and not get sued for it
