Just a small idea I was pondering:

CCP no longer seems interested, or is unable, to provide artwork with each chronicle as they previously did.

If this is due to a lack of resources, perhaps they could involve the fans instead? CCP could put out specific details of art work that they feel will represent the next chronicle and players can get to work creating the next piece to feature in the story. The author of the chronicle can then select the art work which meets the specifications.

I'd have to say this too...I miss the fan art....it's just one of those things that sets the stage for each one.

+1 This would be awesome. It would get the player base more involved with the development of eve itself. You guys go we are revamping XYZ ships/Mods, or creating this ship/mod. What would you like to see it look like? Then all you have to do is select the fan art that fits the bill. Maybe through the winner a plex for their idea and work.

Was recently made aware of this in another topic: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=762371#post762371

Seems like it's not going to happen. Understandable, but a shame. :)
