Image Designer Archive

You always do good work, Kwee. I don't know where you find the time to write a column, be a correspondent, play the game, hug devs, and have a real life! Keep it up!

3/ Last name changing

-Especially for role play reasons such as adoptions and marriages

YES! I know someone who'll need a surname change very soon!

How are you not being a clickbot? Can you tell me exactly what the the image designer would be doing that wouldn't be more efficient if the client could just go to a terminal and choose what they wanted themselves? We could be something like image consultants and give advice, but then there would be no reason to invest any skillpoints into the profession. Anyone can be a consultant.

I guess my idea of clickbot is different than yours, I think my idea would currently involve less clicking than armorsmith,weaponsmith, doctor, or architect. They have to click alot more then we would. Anyway, discussion has moved to a different thread.

Although i am not or dont plan to be an ID ive read your wishlist and think that it has alot to offer the GCW and other professions. I like the idea of last nae changing as we all know the system only relys on the first name. I would also like the vendor IDing added. I thought when I went up the merchant tree that I could pick and choose what my vendor looks like, I was a little dissapointed that it was still basically random.

I would gladly pay an ID to model a vendor that looks exactly like my character(to give my customers the feel they are buying from me)

I have never ever used an ID since the release of the game. But with these proposed changes I think I and alot of other people would be using an ID frequently. Also many dancers/musicians are also ID so it would give them something else to do as a change to pushing a few buttons in the cantina all the time.

1/ Disguises
-Lower various negative factions, possibly also lower positive factions as a balance; Are given via a visit to ID’er or via a disguise kit purchased from an ID’er; Temp duration
-Offer some protection against bounty hunter detection, for when bounties extend to others besides Jedis
-Re-covert overts – an alternate method with some benefit
-Make you less likely to be stopped for a crackdown/smackdown - can’t remember what the second one’s called Reason? You blend into the crowd, why would they pick on someone that doesn’t look suspicious?

I like the idea of craftable items for non-ID people. Lipstick isn't exactly high tech Though no decay... people hate decay.

Kwee,

Could you let us know if Thunderheart/Runesabre have acknowledged the Image Design XP problem? And maybe even ask them to post something on it, even just a post asking for ideas to fix it would be something.
