Requesting the ability to create alliance logos in the same way we can create corporation logos. This is for alliances with under 150 active member who do not qualify for an uploaded logo.

The generic alliance logo and it's overly apparent nature when viewing corp details hurts immersion and identity, considering how many alliances share it.

If this feature cannot be added for alliance logos perhaps the size of the alliance section can be decreased when viewing corporation details and instead increase the focus on the corporation section. One idea would be to swap the positions of the alliance section with the corporation section; alliance info would then be top-left and corporation info would then be centered and more the focus.

Corp logo creation had definitely needed some love for a very long time now. It's much like our avatars in my opinion...we don't have enough options for things to stand out or look unique. Instead you just see tons of corps that all have similar logo's because of so few options.
While I can understand why it's not probably ever going to be a create your own entire logo and submit it because it would take up CCP's time to constantly having to approve/disapprove logo's we should at least have way more options for making them. More layers perhaps and way more choices in images/shapes and the ability to move them around/flip/rotate/ect...
And more color options.

having this same problem. my main's corp created an alliance for the purpose of icnreasing wardec costs. we dont mind the alliance name but its not our identity. we like our corp name as our identity. while we dont expect this on the alliance scale, when checking our corp info the alliance name and logo is what stands out while the corp name and logo are kind of off to the side. this should not be this way, but rather the opposite. +1

No it should stay this way when you join an alliance you become a part of it you eat Dec together and defend together as well as what one member does from any corp in the alliance is a reflection of the alliance as a whole. If you feel you need to distance yourself from the alliance you are apart of them you shouldn't be apart of it. As for making an alliance just to raise the coast of eat decs this doesn't do much as the increase cost isn't enough to stop most of them.



As for the idea of a logo system like the corp one I'm all for it. This would give a sense of identity to alliances as they grow large enough to submit a costume one

Legacy Code! Pssssssssssh! Archaic Copyright Law!

Because the Legacy Code has too much Psssssssssssssssh, nothing will ever get fixed until CCP stop wasting money on failed sparkle MMOs and instead rewrite the entire backend of EvE from scratch.
