Please Revise: Painted ship's listing under "standard" ships:
The painted ships are currently creating clutter in the market tab for standard ships. Please move painted ships to special edition or just somewhere else in the marketplace.
For example Maelstrom Krusual Edition is listed under "Standard Battleships".

How ship painting is treated with respect to the ship:
A ship should not suddenly enter a new category because it is painted. Ship ### Edition, for example. Skins in my opinion should be treated like rigging. If you repackage the ship you lose it. They should also be traded by contract, and not on the market as now. It's just a skin.
Instead I think it would be better if painted ships had some detail in their fitting or inventory that shows that they are painted. That should be visible in the contract, but not in the name or otherwise. After all I am not "Chihiro Silver Coat Edition" just because I am wearing a silver coat. I am still just chihiro, and the ships should be treated the same.

Ship Skin options: Arbitrary Skins = Meaningless:
The skins are entirely arbitrary. There is no story or anything behind them. So why should I (or anyone) care about them? Swapping logos, for example swapping the caldari logo on caldari ships for a different faction's, would have been better, and meaningful because we all have a faction that we like. I would love to fly a raven in the colors of Khanid. That's not we get.
Ship painting is about personalization, and I see no evidence of that taking place right now. If presets are going to be used, and they probably should, then more thought needs to go into them.

Review:
Its a nice idea, and its nice to see the company moving in a new direction. Ship painting is a beta, and I think it still needs some work. Mostly to be less intrusive, to add some (meaningful) personal value to the skin/item, and be to be available.
