 Originally by: Nicodemous
Having just discovered that I accidentally escrowed my Widowmaker BPo (cheap loss, but still a loss to recover), I'd like to petition for a a change in the icons for BPc's, to differentiate them from BPo's - possibly just change the blue background to another color, yellow red or purple perhaps, so that it's easier to both find the BPo's, and to prevent ppl (like myself) from making stupid mistakes.
Just sign below if you like the idea - we might see a dev comment if we're lucky :-)
Well it does help to keep BPO's separate from BPC's either through the use of corp hangars or some other technique but I do agree there needs to be a difference in the way the icons look. Also make the icons look different for the number of runs left, maybe put the number of runs on the icon itself so I don't gotta look at the attributes all the time to see which ones I might want to use. |

* Sings Petition *
I amazed they didn't do this to start with.
Also, I'd like the market to be fixed; it calls things copies when they are actually ME 0 originals.

Because of all times I have to search through loads of BPCs to find the original, worrying that I'd accidently escrowed it.

Sooner or later a dev is bound to read this. Maybe not, now I come to think about it

Can you tell which is the copy?
Answer - None, as they're all originals in that pic (and this pic is a week or so old, there's another 10+ in there now) .. but you've no way whatsoever to find out which is original and which is not without going into every one indivudually..
I use small cans to sort my BPo's from the BPc's, but when you've done a 25-copy run of a widowmaker print, that means that you'll have 26 identical items in your hangar to individually open and scan to check, then move to the BPo can, and then recheck to make sure you got the right one, and with the way Murphy's Law works, it'll be in the last three that you check. 
The problem with using a corp hangar to separate out the copies from the originals is that we're not all lucky enough to get an office in our lab station - this particular lab is in Kourmonen, which has 5 lab stations in it, and all of them are completely rented out, both labs and offices. There's also the fact that none of those blueprints are corp owned - they're all mine.

Defently need this. The Tech 2 flag on the blueprints and changing zero runs to a different icon would also be a plus.

Having played the 'find the original in the pile of copies' game on several occasions, I'd have to concur make them different colors.
As far as copies with 0 runs remaining, please SHRED THEM. Don't waste time by changing their color. Scrap them. Destroy them. There is no good reason to keep them around cluttering things up and tempting scammers to do something with them. I haven't fallen prey to a scammer doing this myself, but have heard of others doing so.
