With the new pills coming out to change your rsi. How about some new tattoos, hairstyles, and faces?
How about organization tattoos?
Not org. specific, anyone can have it just something that might represent the org.
Merv/ Zion/ Mech style sleves and back artwork.
Could even make it a forum competition with people submitting artwork.
What you guys/gals think?
These pills will be a great addition to RP for mxo. Just need to make sure that the RPer uses the pill that won't change their appearance...or at least not noticable ones. I think it'll be a neat bluepill thingy.
BTW, are there pills available to change eye color only? Cause during character creation some combinations can't change eye colors.
Nope. Eye color comes with your face model.
Oh, and /sign for the original thread. 
I just want one thing. A shorter spikey hair style. The ones we have now are kind of like they have this weird anime thing going on.
And the bad thing in that is?
Actually, I have hair style number 8, I have had it from the start and I like it, I just wish it wasn't spiked at the sides as it looks a bit daft from the back or front.

Giant Taco on my back 4tw

More hairstyle and face options especially.
I saw this thread yesterda and forgot to comment on it.Tattoo would be easy...just a flat bitmap image wrapped over the 3D model.
It cant be that hard to get another SOE team to get us a few more skins produced. Its only a hairstyle and a tattoo

The hairstyles would be more difficult. Those are actually separate models with textures/color. Someone would have to fire up Maya and actually create new ones in 3D.
Wouldn't be that hard to create these models really. Game models are quite a lot lower in polygon count than 3D done for movies, print, or cartoons even. It's a tricky balance between making something that still looks good (good textures help out there), and something that renders quickly in real-time by the game engine. The less the engine has to render, the better your framerate. (Hence why there's a piece of the game engine that recognizes when objects are behind other objects and doesn't render the "behind" objects in the Megacity).
I've worked with Maya in the past as well. Sharp learning curve, but totally cool app. Z-Brush is the stuff of dreams too, although I haven't had an opportunity to use that one yet. I'm actually taking classes on the side right now for an 2-year degree in Art / 3D Graphics & Animation. Fun stuff.
Don't expect new content.
Depressing? I speak the truth.
If they are depressing, the the truth is depressing - correct?

The secondary difficulty with making new hair style models is ensuring they cooperate with all the hat and headgear models.
Isn't the hair "removed" from the RSI when you put a hat on? (well...for the males at least, I believe the females that have lower pony tails still show even with a hat on.)
What would REALLY be a challenge is to get the hair (or coats) to flow in the "wind" similar to how The City of Heroes managed to get capes to flow as you move your character.
VVV I want this VVV
I would like a tattoo that goes on the bottom part of my back. It would point to my *CENSORED* and in big bold letters would say "Exit Only."
That would be awesome AMIRITE?

I think we should just have tattoo and parlors and hair stylist shops in-game. =P If it IS modeled after a real city, there's bound to be some building out there that can be suited for that, or just stick them outside with the other vendors.Matrix is about murder. I *must* kill to be able to have dreadlocks.

Chuck Lidell's Hairdo
Kind of resembles the Elite Gurard's mohawk, but shorter.
Do it, do it.
How about just a normal "down" style for females, or a ponytail that's not ugly and braided?If only.
