...and who's supposed to do it? Why, Image Designers, of course. I'm serious. To quote the GCW correspondent:

"I've thought about this too. It seems it would be a great ability to pass to Image Desginers to give them more of a place in the GCW. If a planet is under Planetary Blockade, no opposing factioned member can use the starports, or the shuttleports, or land from space.

However, a Master Image Designer might be able to set you up so you could "sneak through security".

This is a joke right?

Making a fake ID is an art, wich is the area of an image designer. Its a skill. Meaning if the smuggler makes the fake ID he would also be an image designer.


Are you SERIOUS???
Ok, why don't we let Artisans make spice, since they are more crafter than we are?
How about we let Weaponsmiths slice the weapons, since they made them and know their complexitites better than ourselves?
You, sir, are an idiot, and so completely disillusioned to what "Smuggling" means that I simply can't express myself monosyllabically enough for you to EVER understand what it truly is.
Writing things that amount to "go fetch your revamp" makes me sick.
And I'm sorry, but if you compared what Image Designers do IRL and what Criminals do IRL, I don't think you'd ever see a f***ing haristylist whipping up a fake ID.
We are CRIMINALS. We change the rules. Honestly, get that through your thick head, or go to the Jedi forums and play with the blockheads.





You're taking things completely out of context. Manufacture of drugs is a unique case, wich is illegal activity..wich is an area of smugglers/underworld. Slicing is 'illegal' ....and again area of smuggler/underworld.

Im sorry that you fail to conjur up any amount of humor, as you're currently acting like an enraged wookiee who's gotten a trim.

Haahaahaahaaa it is an art just like the art of smuggling people dude that has to be the weakest argument Ive ever heard for anything, every profession is a art in its own way.







you just proved my point





OMG dude that art of making a fake ID would be by someone who nows how to make an ID look real, hence breaking the law. I did not prove your point you just dont seem to get that any illegal activity is the job of the underworld the people best to know how to brake the law are criminals, I dont go to my barber to get fake ID's do I? Also ID's are not artists to the classic sense they change the way people look not make art work. I proved your point, man thats a good one. Try again

That's good, because there was no humor implied.

The thing about fetching our revamp was really funny, and since it was said with a literal wink (or extruded tongue.. same thing), it should have been pretty clear.

This business about Image Designers making fake IDs is pretty ridiculous, but his statement about the revamp shouldn't be misinterpreted.

Who's trying to duplicate paintings? That is totally irrelevant to the issue at hand.


We want to SMUGGLE. That's what our profession is named after.


If you wanted a good fake Identification Card, would you go to your hairstylist, or a criminal?

Karden, stop smoking whatever you're smoking.


You think forgery is in the realm of a hair dresser and plastic surgeon? That IS what IDs are; hair dressers and plastic surgeons.


I don't want Smugglers to be Forgers, Casino contractors, furniture crafters, drug makers or ANY of the lame-ass things we currently are or are being considered for.


Look up the definition of "smuggle" and give us SMUGGLING for crying out loud.


But IF you have to put false identity skills SOMEWHERE it should go with Smugglers LONG before IDs.

I would go to a visual artist(meaning in SWG terms he would be a templated smuggler/visual artist), there has to be a clear distinction in this argument that a fake ID in starwars would be an electronic one..the realm of the smuggler. The general use of fake ID in the earlier comment was coupled with the image of an artist duplicating a card with matching patterns, photo etc. What exactly a fake ID would be in Starwars is subject to a bit of research.

The image of the criminal wouldn't be scanned or easily recognizable in most situations. Police are more able to type a name into a database search than scan in the image on an ID. A true fake id would rely primarily on the ability of the person to create a 'clean' background for the persona they are assuming at that time. Not on their new hair style.
