I want the ability to go overt and aggressively ID enemy players while they are incapped/dead.
Yes...I can't pvp you rebels...but if you upset meI'll leave a trail of green mohawks and purple afros to mark my passing. You see a doctor to get wounds healed, you can see an ID to heal the damage an enemy hairdresser did while you were unconscious on that last base attack.
Now that would be sweet.

rofl I love the way cantara's mind works
Someone else mentioned pointed teeth for twilek, and although I'm sure they actually meant it, it needs to be toggleable. I've watched ROTJ and AOTC which both contain female twilek, and I never recall a single snarled tooth errupting from their beautiful mouths. It was bib's thing much like the red eyes and tumors. I would hate my female twilek toon to become a cuisinart.
... Not that I'm the type of person who does that kind of thing. What thing. Don't look at me! /flee
Besides those two nitpicks, I'm more than onboard with more options in facial structure (I tried doing a "child" twilek toon.. the lack of options combined with my current graphics problems (it bugs out occasionally until a mesh loads/warps) meant it just looked like a pudgy short girl) and ALL body section length/size/etc tweakage. I should be able to make my arms and legs a bit shorter for said child toon, or long if I want either a lanky character, or something I was thinking about, a "freak" with longer arms, sorta the down to the mid thighs length vs the hips. As it stands now with characters we're still loading LOTS AND LOTS of customized items and meshes, we might as well be able to go the full yard and create truly unique toons - it'd only up the PC requirements slightly, and I'm due for an upgrade anyway.
How about making the color palettes a little bigger and naming the colors? Some people in game (like myself) are either color bling or partially color blind and could benefit from color naming.
I had more but most of it was posted by others already =)
Beside the fix for the "swimming-bug" in the new publish currently tested on TC there is nothing new yet. The devs seem to be busy with other stuff they want to get into the game. We will have to be patient as allways I fear.

Has the ID correspondent posted on any news of anything submitted to the dev's about ID changes? I haven't seen any of the correspondence post lately getting very quiet from the dev's too

Maybe you could give them another poke about the vendors for us again? You never know when they'll give a statement, it would rock if this item is really going to be worked on soon. *bounces* Maybe you'll get good news for us?

Just another idea to help one of the only two professions that make me look sexy.
Why couldn't ID's just make the NPC vendors? Do it like a design session where you'd group with the merchant and build one from the ground up? [ID's design abilities scaled the same as with PCs] At least then there'd be something y'all could sell. They already have the groundwork, sorta, from BE pets.
I'm sure there's more than one DE out there who wouldn't mind the ability to craft vendor droids right about now (provided they weren't bugged, of course) And architects could use a boost as well with the terminals.
Personally, I've never understood how you could just produce a vendor out of thin air. Or fit a swoop bike in a datapad, but...
Anyway, just an idea.

Its not called "Hiring I-IV" for nothing
OK here is another idea. Im not sure if its been mentioned anywhere else, if so, Im sorry
ID's should be able to image design house intereriors.
Why ID not architect, you ask? Well because in real life, architects make furniture and make houses, but they usually dont paint the walls and do the carpeting.
What about the skill called Interior designer? Change the name of that skill.
How would it work? We could have the same palette as the hair palette. It has all the pales and brights, bolds, blacks and greys, earth tones- anythingyou'd ever need. ID's would craft paint and sell them on a vendor or bazaar. People could buy the paint, click on aradial menu in the middle of each wall/ floor segment, and paint their walls and ceilings. And if the devs are really nice, they could do "paint designcans" with a design on it, simplepatternslike the walls and carpets in naboo houses and even "Furniture Upholstery" to make Chairs, Couches, table bases, ottomans match (furniture upholstery would likely go with the tailor profession, since its cloth and all). Then for vendors/bazaar, the person could click on the item and see a square swatch of that color or pattern. Each can could have 10 uses
Why do it? It would give ID's something to craft (like entertainers have instruments). It would give ID's a new way to achieve income. People would finally have PRETTY and coordinating houses!!!!!! I mean we can paint our vehicles, why not our walls and carpets (even furniture)? Rugs would still be useful, but people could color coordinate rooms better. We DESIGN IMAGES. Why limit it to only bodies and faces? It would be super easy, just a skin for walls and carpets and super super fun!
I dunno, maybe I'm crazy, I'm sure you guys will tell me what you think

ok nice idea's but the profession is totally wrong if you want to Interior Design the profession for this is ARCHITECT, currently on the architect forum a poll has been running for many many months after a red name asked what the profession thought of increased colour options.
Similar proposals have been run through the architect profession since beta I personally feel you need to have a look at one of the architect forums largest threads with regards to furniture/interior customizations
You want to craft and Interior Design then add 4x-x-x Architect to your template I have done so on Bloodfin as Archi 4-x-x-x Master ID Master Tailor for over a year now and it has been a rewarding play experiance
