I really like the profession... I'm a peoples person kinda guy, and becoming a Tailor really seemed like it would let me do just that. In the time I've played I've never done Tailor either, so it's something new for me as well, always good.
Anyways, 2 things right off that stand out to me...
1. Tailors need full color spectrum palettes for both colors in clothing.
-I know this is already mentioned millions of times, just thought I'd throw one more voice into the crowd.
2. An interface much like the ID interface, so that a person can see the clothing before it's actually crafted... that would awesome. Maybe even letting the customer choose exactly what they want for colors [on a full palette of course
]... Dunno if this has been suggested, but I think it would be great. Afterall, in the real world people tell tailors exactly what they want for in color and such, why not game world?
Anyways, I'm really enjoying it so far... glad I decided to finally give it a shot.

Personally for me, I would not like an interface like that. It takes the fun out of tailoring. Often times with all thedifferent color pallettes and the way the color looks on the final version of a particular clothing item, the tailor often has to use other color schemes to get a certain color. Like on the Luxurious Gown... someone wants a gold gown, well when you look at the color pallette you don't see gold, you would need to know (from experience) which of those colors actually looks 'gold' on the final product. Plus sometimes matching some of the vests/tops to pants you need to go a shade or 2 lighter on the pants to match the vest since the colors absorb differently on different items.
I would say that if there was an interface like the one above it would suck the fun for me out of tailoring. Most of the time, I can create something that my customer may never think of and then they love what you do.
I hope that made sense. If theyever fix the color pallette and the absorption of the colors then perhaps an interface would be okay but not with tailoring in it's current state.
