I enjoy trying to make my character look unique by changing the designs and colors of their gear and clothing. It is one aspect I love about the game.
That said, I would love:
1) To be able to change the design and color of Companions equipment/clothing, to show that they are part of my entourage. Much like Knights had Squires in the same colors as theirs.
2) To be able to change the design and color of a Mounts Tack and Armor, to match or compliment my characters designs and colors. Much like the Knight had his Destrier all bedecked in his colors and heraldry.
3) To change the colors of my weapons, especially a Control Wizards Orbs, and Devoted Clerics Symbols. Having something closer to your characters look, would be so nice, instead of something that clashes completely.
Best thing of this, is it would be a constant AD drain to get the extra Dyes, as well as to Transmute their existing stuff to more closely match your characters.

2) More or less the same as the last point. The mounts don't have 'clothes' the way we do, so changing tack- and armor color means changing the color of the skin itself. Might work, but I wouldn't count on them bothering.
3) Now this I really want to see. Not sure I want a 'free for all' thingy, though, where anyone can use any color. I would much rather have colors tied to tiers, so more awesome weapons can have more awesome colors. A white sword is pretty much useless, so I want it to look useless, too. When we get purple swords, we should be allowed to use purple dyes, to make them look really awesome and unique.
i've thought how i'd love to be able to change my mount's armor or the colors... perhaps you could socket mounts with different appearance items. could be fun!
you can already change the colors of your weapons. right click on your weapon and click on change appearance. with that window open, open your inventory and drag and drop your dye into the open slot. you should be able to do this on the first try. if you change the dye, it may tell you that you cannot do it. all you'd have to do is close the change appearance window and start over if that happens. have fun!
So are our characters "Skins" and we can make a multitude of add-ons and changes to them. Simply allowing color changes would be a first, but being able to transmute clothing/armor to them would be awesome.

Seems you had a different result than I did. I tried, and got a message saying "Weapons cannot be dyed!"
arcaelus said I would love to just be able to change my Man at Arms (LvL 30) shield. Having a wooden shield with heavy plate armor looks just wrong.I wonder if the Devs can do something about it.I do not know which thread to ask them.
Exactly.....

I would love to be able to dye my companion's clothing - even if it was restricted to humanoid companions only.

My bad, i apologize.
The dye bottles, poor customization of armor, weapons, clothing, hirelings, and mounts as well as your own character falls way below the normal standards for a Cryptic game.
The need to add here what they have done on the other titles and any changes need to be bought with in game currency, we need to use gold for something other than potions/kits.
