what about the possibility of customizing our characters with a color scheme or crest per say on there armor?, After wearing the level 80 PSI set I looked like a nickel/emerald plated mannequin. Just a thought.

You mind freaks look like models for rug merchants lately. lol. I do think that customization has two drawbacks:
a) if done by HCS it's time away from other work (assuming graphic artists aren't having lots of down time).
B) requires constant moderation if done by players (similar to why we have no avatars to customize in this game).

In general, some sort of badge or crest or something isn't a bad idea. Just not sure the two problems can be sorted out.

As a potential "quick fix", how about a crest that is the faction crest (already logo'd anyway) on any Elite Set tagged by a faction?

That would work for the crest, but as far as coloring your own suit could just be a simple point and paint, however with this game I am not sure if it would be more difficult for the HCS team to do or if its is even Viable.

Would Like to hear from HCS on this and see what they say though.

I say that crests are a very good idea, although i don't think having people customize their own would be a good idea, nor do i think that having the faction logo on them would be a good idea, as 1: it would take forever to put a single faction logo on an elite set so that it looks at all reasonable, and 2: they could never make faction logo's for every single suit, as there's probly thousands of factions.

As i said at the beginning though, it would be GREAT to be able to have crests on sets, even if there were to only be a few choices.

Actually wouldn't be that hard. There are a finite number of guild logos in this game. You just denote the size you want the crest to be (16x16, 24x24, 16x24...) and leave a spot that size open on the design of the armor. Not saying it would always look great (different logos would look different on different sets) but it would do the trick.

Being able to "paste" the guild logo on the armor equipped would be super-cool!! But i am not sure it doesnt require a lot of work to implement..

Well if you "mind freaks" fancy anything for a class set you can always send your suggestions to me and you will see it if it's a cool idea ;D As for customising the colour and adding a guild logo, it's just too much work for now.. it doesn't sound like a lot I'm sure, but it really is. It's a nice idea though.

If any class fancies something worked into their class armor then feel free to PM me with your suggestions :)
