This is excellent. I am a retired master image designer and am so happy to see these changes.


Especially this one... /grin /grin /grin /grin /grin


"Image designers and their clients can work through the changes in real-time, agree on a price and execute the changes through a secure-trade transaction window."





It'd be nice if it were stable.


Has anyone else had a trade window that "destabilizes" if it's open for longer than 30 seconds? Anyone else see a problem with a secure player-player interface being set up?


-Nah-

If you have any macros running when you are trading, it will cancel the trade. Maybe that is the problem? I have never had any trouble with trade windows.

I'm still a little afraid of what they will do, but hopefully we will know what they have in store soon. I know they said that they will not be able to see our sliders, which is really good! What I worry about is that people will want to tell me exactly how to change things (just keep making my nose smaller until I say stop!). Some things look really strange until you make several changes and customers are afraid that you are messing up how they look instead of making them look better (in the end). If I can convince customers to let me make the changes to make them look the way they describe *without* having the session be micro-managed by them and then use that as a baseline to tweak it until they think its perfect, then the real time display will be great! Hopefully most customers will be willing to do this. Right now, my least favorite ID sessions are the ones where someone runs up to me and says something like, "Please give me skin color 33". Thats just no fun at all.

Hehe…yeah, I have a macro that changes my title every 2 seconds—I use it when I'm really bored and feel like advertising my services in a cantina, or when I don't want to get booted for not moving (whose idea was it that talking via spatial, tells, or channels doesn't count for the idleboot anyway?) When it's running it usually takes me two failed trades to remember why I can't trade anymore. Hehe.




My "secret" character has the same kind of macro and I always have the same problem. Thats what reminded me.

No.. it has nothing to do with any macros. The only macros I run are when I used to grind tradeskills. I mean if the player is laggy or if the server/planet you're on is laggy, trade windows have a habit of just poofing with no explanation.


-Nah-

I wonder if that 'glitter' might work for those of us without hair. I sure would love my lekku pattern to have that sort of an effect for it, and I know it would look interesting on a mon Calimari

On the other hand... awww shucks.. I usually throw on my Master ID tag when I want to hide from the endless tells of people asking "Do you sell brandy?" because I'm a Master Chef as well..


I'm going to have to start running around as a Novice Artisan or something


-Nah-

OMG - You know what? Whenever I get an ID job from an Image Designer... that's what I say! Lol - "I'd like lip color #2 please"...


I guess every image designer is different. TheID I used to go to loved how I knew exactly what I wanted. She said it made her job so much easier, hehe. I found that many image designers hate changing zabrak tattoo styles because usually they request that we show them all the styles before deciding on the one they want.


And excuse the "we" (image designers) that I use, hehe. I just love the profession so much I include my retired-ID-self in it.


Kwee made a poll thing once and I learned that lots of ex-ID'ers still go on the ID forum. /whisper I'm one of them.

Well, from you it would still be fun, because I know we would end up talking about stuff anyway. Its just the ones where I don't get to interact at all or let me have any creative freedom thats the least fun. The other day someone asked to be image designed, but they refused to say anything at all. All they said was the number of the skincolor they wanted. Oh well, at least it was fast!

I am really looking forward to the User Interface. I have a Master ID on both Wanderhome and Kettemoor. On WH I traveled from Corellia to Dantooine to do ID work for some one. When I told him what he owed me, he just walked out. This new Real Time interface will help keep us from getting ripped off.
