    I was looking at the fashions, and was really exciting seeing all the colors... But when you get the fashions they're random colors.

    I was fully ready to buy a lot of fashions. in lots of different colors. But because of the fact I need to use pigments, I decided against it.

    I would suggest making it so that you can pick what color you want with the fitting room, so that if you want to change it later then you buy pigments. You'd probably sell more fashions if you did that, because while the pigments aren't expensive, you need a lot of them to dye anything. And it makes it hard to color-coordinate, which as a woman, I find very important.

    The other solution would be to make it so you can pick the colors of pigments you want in the shop, or at least narrow down the shades.

    Until there's a change to this stuff, I doubt I'll buy fashion cause there's too much uncertanty when buying them, and I don't want to end up with something really ugly I'll never wear because I can't get the pigments I want.

      I'd also love this to be implemented, but doing so would most likely result in a loss of revenue for both PWI and players who sell fashion.

      Problem is, although many would like this idea, plenty of people are buying fashion regardless and dyeing them all the time.

      There's also a specialty factor in getting a lucky color from random pigments or dyeing an outfit a certain color after buying all the pigments. Being able to choose from the start would ruin that aspect I think.

      I agree, and I've thought the same. Susylu's right, though. The revenue would drop drastically, and realistically speaking, I don't think it's going to happen. The color of one's clothes isn't going to be a heavy enough factor to stop people from playing, so the frowny faces our outfits generate are an acceptable loss to the staff.

      I'm not trying to villainize anyone, just being real with folks.

      Now, I'm not sure about the lucky colors (if they're anything besides white or black), so I can't really comment on that. All I can say is, the random colors stole my dignity.

      Le-sigh.

      I would LOVE to be able to pick the color... HOWEVER pwi loses money if they do that. Cause then you aren't paying for the random pigment/actual dye to dye it the color you want. And half the time the colors cost you more then the actual piece itself.

      So, Yeah, awesome thought, but it won't be anything more then a thought, not to sound rude lol, just that PWI won't do it. If they can squeeze more money out of you this way, why would they make it so they don't get that money?

      Yea you guys already explained the gist of it already.
      Random colors = higher chance of buying pigments = more money for PWE

      I always picture it like I'm walking into a clothing store, picking out what I want and what colors I want. Then at the register, the cashier takes my clothes, lights it on fire, releases a smokescreen leaving me blind for half a minute while the store goons roam around picking random colors of the same clothes. Once the smoke clears I am handed a bag with random colored clothes and am told that the store is closed and that there is a some guy down in some alley way down the street that will dye my clothes for cheap if I want it in a different color.
