Citadels have become a thing and look to get bigger. However, it is difficult or impossible for owners to advertise precisely what services individual citadels are offering and at what prices. This will become an even bigger issue with the incoming engineering complexes. Currently the only real option seems to be the bio page of the owning corp, which seems annoying.

I would like all citadels to get something along the lines of a toon's bio page, where owners could put things they would like their customers to know. Tax and efficiency levels, as well as office costs and services offered, are things that immediately come to mind (Yes, we do have a T2 advaned component rig installed and No we do not offer market access!)

Structure browser in the general menu will tell you the amenities AND their rates.

Gadget is correct.

However I like the idea of structure bio pages, skins, and other ways for people to customize these structures in non-functional ways.

Actually, I would say that Gadget is partially correct.

The structure browser shows what services are available and what the fees and taxes are. However the browser does not show things like efficiency. The structure browser is also not part of any other menu, which it perhaps should be.

Having citadels with names like '54% refine / 0.1% tax' is IMO just wrong. There ought to be a place, other than the citadel name, where owners can put things like that or like 'Home of Project Eisenfaust', 'Exotic dancers wanted, apply within' or 'We'll build anything for a percentage'.
