While I was redesigning my corp logo yesterday, I found the lack of insignias and colors disturbing. The colors you have are great and all, but I would like to see more hues and 3D images. I'm sure this isn't hard to make.

Some ideas I've come up with are:

*Add more animal heads (Like bear, wolf, tiger etc.)
*Add more colors (Light red, green, teal etc.)
*Add more objects (Tree, the sun, car, shoes, diamonds etc.)

Please voice your opinion on this! I don't want single word answers, I would like a full sentence or two about your opinion. Thanks!

tbh almost all current logos etc. look like some leftover assets from a 90s fantasy game. i would propose to throw the whole system away and replace it something more contemporary.
if that is not an option, at least add some more colors and some sprites that do not look terrible.

I should buy an Ishtar.

How can it look like a 90s fantasy game without having dragons?
I demand dragons!

My Condor costs less than that module!

Definitely agree on this one.

And while at it they might touch the medal system as well...

I've always supported updating the corp logo generator.
I'm hoping that when CCP completed the ship graphic upgrade, we will get logos on our hulls, and at this tile the logo generator will be upgraded....

I can dream right?

How about corporation logos onto our hulls? Every time we change a corporation, the logos will change on the ship. That would be awesome!

I would like to see both alliance and corp logos on player ships. Maybe with the alliance logo larger than the corp logo.

I would also like to see custom paint jobs on player ships. Then RvB could actually paint their ships red and blue, CVA could paint theirs gold, goons could do black and yellow bee stripes, ect...

Maybe have the station you are docked at charge a small fee each time you paint your ship to help remove some isk from the economy.

I don't know about adding 3D images... I think a more bold and graphic approach looks better. I always set the icons to be a flat color with my corp logos, to get rid of the shading, which I think looks gaudy. But yes, more variation and options in corp logos would be cool.

I don't see how adding more corporation logo options could be a bad thing, and it probably wouldn't take much to do, so +1.

As for this, it has been discussed many times, and there are good reasons it hasn't happened yet. Namely, it would be a huge strain on the servers to load thousands of independently colored ship models and update all involved clients to see said individual models (or at least, that is one of the reasons brought up. I don't know the specifics of how much hardware power it would take. Probably too much though). Not to mention all the flying penises. If you thought attack cruisers were Freudian, you ain't seen nothin' till players can alter ship textures.

I think it would be better if it was the logo of the corp that made the ship so that indi corps can really see the impact they're having in new eaden

That could work, I also like the custom paint jobs idea too. Let's keep them coming :)

As long as CCP uses a minimum amount of assets on this and the server doesn't lag because of it.
