I'm sure most of you saw the "RED Alliance" decal on the ships in the Trinity model reels, and thought it would be a great idea to be able to include your own alliance or corporate decals. This idea, if employed correctly, could be a good one. To avoid dominating the whole model with a decal, limits could be set to how big you can make said decals. This limit is proportional to ship size ... for example, on a frigate, you can only place a relatively small decal, whereas on a Dreadnought, you could place a relatively huge decal. I suggest making the application mechanism similar to what it is in Need For Speed: Carbon. You are given the corporate decal as a preview on he surface of the hull. You then have a window which opens with a scrollbar with which you can adjust size, and a four-way clickable "D-pad" with which you adjust position. This would be done in-station and the camera rotation mechanics will remain intact, mousewheel to zoom and click-drag to rotate. Of course, mirroring decal position could not work, because a number of the ships in EVE are not symmetrical. Also, to avoid people spamming decals and making their ships corporate billboards, a limit of decals allowed upon a ship could be 2 or 3, each decal costing 100 ISK to 1,000 ISK, depending on its size. The finished result could look something like this: Please visit your user settings to re-enable images. If the image is too small, and you can't see the decal very well.. here's a URL to the full-size image: Image

You think they'd be any better if CCP allowed players to include stylized text, like you see in most NPC corp logos? I think so.. ùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùùù Rethink, Redesign, Rebuild.
