Recently messing with newly created characters looks I’ve found some things that might be improved:
Sometimes when entering “character customization” district the POSE changes, not sure about light source, but I have suspicion that it COULD change as well. And more importantly, current snapshot of a character disappears.
This might ruin player’s progress as if they accidentely change character’s pose or rotation or head/look angles.
It would be super helpful to STORE snapshots of a characters (incl, apparel, pose, expression and light). Funny thing - there are already slots for snapshots, but why they are here if not used?
Inside “character customization” district there are severe lack of good haircuts. For example - I could NOT find a classy women’s BOB HAIRCUT! Current h-cuts pool is heavily weighted towards punky/pixie/berzerker style. Also, more extravagant noble amarrian variants would be much appreciated!
Backgrounds could be more interesting.
There are lot of “close-quarters” claustrophobic backgrounds in forms of WALLS. How about to add more spacious galactic star backgrounds? Or if someone is TRADING - how about make some cool running numbers and semi-transparent neocoms behind? Do gravitate towards certain ACTIVITIES - that’s the general idea. Make “corporate” feel, or “military” or “scientific” etc..
Those ‘Snapshot’ slots are used to save different looking portrait views and allow you to quickly switch between them to select the best one to use for the actual portrait… Basically when a specific ‘Snapshot’ is selected, the character portrait screen will automatically revert all lighting, background and character pose to what’s shown in that ‘Snapshot’… When you select ‘Save’, that’s how your in-game character portrait will look…
And more facial hair too, none of the current options have any volume.
Additional backgrounds would be wonderful, although I must say we’ve had a surprisingly high amount of new backgrounds lately which is a nice trend I’d like to see continue.
Check the market too for backgrounds, some of them are tradeable now and not judt accessible as default option. At least one is a spatious station interior that you asked for.

How about being able to import a character image, that another player – with real artistic talent – could make and sell their services for ISK/PLEX?
