123144-custom-guild-holomarks

== Content ==
			
Had a thought just now.  Our holomarks appear to be fairly low-res pictures stacked to create a 3d effect.  Given that, I'd like to throw an idea out there:
 
Let's say a guild decided they wanted to custom-make a holomark and background.  Give us a maximum file size for icon and background, let us make the images we want, and then send them in to a CRB or NCSoft CS representative via a registered mark.  All the rep has to do is make sure the picture isn't a *cupcake* and balls or a picture of Master Chief, then he allocates the file to that guild as their "custom" holomark and background, which they can then use.  If necessary, charge them a few bucks for the service to pay for the guy checking to make sure it's not a middle finger and then uploading it to the correct guild.  I'm sure guilds would take advantage of the service to use their own custom logos and backgrounds.
 
As an aside, you could program in an actual drawing program to avoid some of the weirder filetypes or potential issues.  Just give us access to something where we can wink pixels on and off and some drawing tools.  However, managing file sizes and such should mitigate this.  One thing that would be necessary would be a system whereby you can temporarily upload the mark and/or background to a character's shoulder and back, then spin them around to see how it looks (since things could look a bit different actually on the mark.
 
Just a random thought.  It seems like having that capability would be a lot of fun.  You could add decor like banners and giant holographic marks that display it on housing plots, or even items you can slam into the ground with the icon on it (limit one per 1000 yards or whatever is appropriate).  Just a spitballed idea.

I love this idea!
 
One of my bank alt guilds in another game was called 'Star Six Seven' 
That wasn't the actual picture but it's close.

			Please, please, please let us do this Carbine! I'd love to be able to create custom Holomarks even if I'm not a Guild leader.

This is similar to the idea my cousin mentioned this weekend, haha.
 
Having just looked through the guild icons recently, have to agree with this post. There are plenty of cool images but I find many of them to be generic. I couldn't even find a single icon match-up that suggests eduction/academy. Not one. :(

			This would be a very good idea.  It would mean more individuality for the guilds. I see so many guild emblems that are pretty much the same, it has gotten to the point where I don't even look at them anymore.

I think I must have turned off holomarks because I never see them, ever. Is this even possible? Or am I dreaming that I turned these off? :P
 
And hey, with this new function we could have ACTUAL bacon and eggs for our holomark. That smiling yolk is totally unrealistic. :rolleyes:

			That is pretty awesome. But a few of our members have designed some kick ass logos. We have so many talented people here in the wildstar community <3

Oh my god please, I would love custom guild marks.
My guild in TERA had the FlyFF Hero icon for the guild mark.

			Each submission would have to be reviewed for 'improper' pictures. Great idea, but rather unrealistic to implement.
