Hey everybody. I wanted to get some feedback on the art selection for Champions of the Galaxy Online's Create a Character. Feel free to post your comments here or send them to me in a PM.
The Art Selection:
1) Would you like a black and white option for the character art (w/o backgrounds)?
2) Would you prefer fewer color scheme choices or more?
3) What do you think of having fewer choices for each base character but with the option to make requests (maybe a request submission field and button)?
The Characters:
1) What type of character would you see more of? Less of? Would you like to see more generic human wrestlers? More aliens? Ani-men? Glads? etc?
2) Do you mind the "frankensteined" characters (characters built from parts, same body, different heads etc) or would you like to see more bootleg donations?
3) Regarding bootlegs. would you like to see alternate fan-made versions of official characters?
The Backgrounds:
1) Would you like fewer background choices or more?
2) Would you be opposed to a small repeated background selection? Do you have suggestions?
3) What are your favorite types of backgrounds?
The Browsing Tool:
1) How do you feel about the browsing feature? Does it need changing and if so, do you have any suggestions?
2) Do you like the drop down menu for the browsing tool or do you think another method would be better?
3) Is it easy or hard to find what you're looking for?
If there is anything I missed and you would like to add, feel free to mention it in your reply. Thanks.

The Art Selection:
1) Would you like a black and white option for the character art (w/o backgrounds)?
I would not be that interested in black and white. I like the color pics online.
2) Would you prefer fewer color scheme choices or more?
I think the number of choices now is pretty good in that respect. More is always good, though.
3) What do you think of having fewer choices for each base character but with the option to make requests (maybe a request submission field and button)?
A request option would be nice, but not at the expense of fewer choices.
The Characters:
1) What type of character would you see more of? Less of? Would you like to see more generic human wrestlers? More aliens? Ani-men? Glads? etc?
Not many animen right now. A few Aethrans would be nice. And since a majority of characters are human, more of those would be great. More women would be good, too. I would not really want to see less of anything.
2) Do you mind the "frankensteined" characters (characters built from parts, same body, different heads etc) or would you like to see more bootleg donations?
No, the combinations are good. But does this have to be an either/or quesstion? bootleg donations are good too.
3) Regarding bootlegs. would you like to see alternate fan-made versions of official characters?
Sure. Those could be useful.
The Backgrounds:
1) Would you like fewer background choices or more?
The backgrounds are less important to me. The selection is pretty good now.
2) Would you be opposed to a small repeated background selection? Do you have suggestions?
No, not opposed at all.
3) What are your favorite types of backgrounds?
Depends on the character. I use the wall backgrounds a lot, and in some cases the nature backgrounds. Again, I don't think as much about the background as I do the character.
The Browsing Tool:
1) How do you feel about the browsing feature? Does it need changing and if so, do you have any suggestions?
It works. With more artwork it may get a little time consuming, but I do not have a better idea.
2) Do you like the drop down menu for the browsing tool or do you think another method would be better?
That works fine for me.
3) Is it easy or hard to find what you're looking for?
I never have a real problem.
Thanks for your work on this, Werner. I love the CAC options for CotG online, and the artwork is an important part of it.

The Art Selection: 1) Would you like a black and white option for the character art (w/o backgrounds)? Color has been fine 2) Would you prefer fewer color scheme choices or more? Ummm I wouldn't see why you would have fewer so I'd say more or that it is good now. 3) What do you think of having fewer choices for each base character but with the option to make requests (maybe a request submission field and button)? Eh not too big of fan for that The Characters: 1) What type of character would you see more of? Less of? Would you like to see more generic human wrestlers? More aliens? Ani-men? Glads? etc? More women of all kinds, more humaniodish men probably, and I like masked wrestlers 2) Do you mind the "frankensteined" characters (characters built from parts, same body, different heads etc) or would you like to see more bootleg donations? I always like the bootlegs 3) Regarding bootlegs. would you like to see alternate fan-made versions of official characters? I think that would be neat but not sure it is necessary. The Backgrounds: 1) Would you like fewer background choices or more? I think the ones are okay but i'd go with more than fewer probably. 2) Would you be opposed to a small repeated background selection? Do you have suggestions? no, no  3) What are your favorite types of backgrounds? depends on the characters, city space, nature The Browsing Tool: 1) How do you feel about the browsing feature? Does it need changing and if so, do you have any suggestions? hmm an option to view all male or female choices. 2) Do you like the drop down menu for the browsing tool or do you think another method would be better? menu works fine 3) Is it easy or hard to find what you're looking for? harder when i'm on a slower connection, maybe having the option of choosing the base first then look at the variations could help with that but I'm not sure if that is really something necessary. |

The women are a little light. Finding it hard to use original pics for my LaCe roster.
That's really all I got, I am so brain dead today it's not even funny.

2) Would you prefer fewer color scheme choices or more?
seems like to many to me,
3) What do you think of having fewer choices for each base character but with the option to make requests (maybe a request submission field and button)?
that not a bad idea

1) What type of character would you see more of? Less of? Would you like to see more generic human wrestlers? More aliens? Ani-men? Glads? etc?
human. more human. dressed as wrestlers. your really good at that.

not big on the "frankensteined" stuff myself.
3) Regarding bootlegs. would you like to see alternate fan-made versions of official characters?
sure, that would be cool.
The Backgrounds:
1) Would you like fewer background choices or more?
I could care less what the bg looks like
2) Would you be opposed to a small repeated background selection? Do you have suggestions?
uh, yeah
3) What are your favorite types of backgrounds?
just something that blends with the wrestler.
The Browsing Tool:
1) How do you feel about the browsing feature? Does it need changing and if so, do you have any suggestions?
I dont see any problems with it.
2) Do you like the drop down menu for the browsing tool or do you think another method would be better?
drop down is always good and is easy and space saving
3) Is it easy or hard to find what you're looking for?

I might add, some "Japanese" style wrestlers would be nice for art. Something that is lacking in the GWF and all of COTG for that matters.
