First off - its good to see that people working in arts at CCP are talented, and know what they are doing  .
If I may add an idea ( constructive critique welcome ) - maybe add a new profession to EVE ( not too many skills though ) - something like "Decorator". All the rooms would start looking the same, but a Decorator could manufacture new paints for walls, furniture, better looking carpets, and so on - get the materials from PI. Everybody would like to have the best looking quarters in the universe, but if all items would be available to eberybody - it would ruin the experience - make them EXPLORE space for new ideas, materials and so on.
Think about it - if a wall could have lets say 3 types of decals with 3 or 4 "paint places" and 10 types of paint it would amount to over 30000 possibilities of just the walls. This kind of texturing was used many times with great effects - just look at Warhammer 40k.
Still - Incarna is getting somwhere, and even Duke Nukem Forever will eventually hit the shelves - maby there is an All Knowing Dev In The Sky ?!?!?!

everything you do on the neocom atm you should be able to do on the neocom in the future when incarna comes out.
theyre creating a new neocom yes but it has all the features and functionality of the current one. ccp are not removing it, so you can do everything you normally do at the speed you do it now... actually some things faster as you can create shortcuts to certain things buried under sub menus on the new beta neocom.
the incarna feature is a choice for players to interact in a more human/physical way. so dont get your knickers in a twist thinking ccp will bork your ability to do things efficiently. they wouldnt be creating a new faster streamlined neocom if they were just going to get rid of it.
Thank You - this sums up Incarna just fine. If Incarna can give me a customizable AVATAR I'll welcome it. If the only thing that makes the "hard-core" gamers happy is the size of their wallets and killmails - don't worry guys - it will still be there, but not everybody harvests tears. Think about it - if everybody would be pvp'ing then this would be DESCENT, and if I'm not mistaken EVE ONLINE is an RPG (http://www.eveonline.com/faq/faq_01.asp - first line).
