Fleet Logos: What, When, Where, and How?

The title says most of it: Fleet Logos, can we get some clarification?

They don't seem to be activated yet, is there a timetable for this?

When they are activated, where will they be created/accessed from?

Will they be created from uploaded images? If so, what format and size requirements (pixels/bytes)?

Will there be a in-depth custom logo creation tool, as in Rock Band?

Will it be a more simple dropdown list of logos, like the logos in Champions Online?

    I ASUME they will be on the ships... maybe even on your suit... I doubt they will make capes like in many other games cause this isent a super hero game or wow lol..

    maybe just a tiny emblem some place on shoulder or chest or what not.. could be cool I think.

    This is a super hero game disguised as Star Trek.

    The Fleet Logos are on your ships, right now. It's currently fixed as the UFP logo (For Feds, anyway). What I meant was where would one go to access the Fleet Logo, as in to edit it or view it by itself. I think it would be appropriate to place the interface next to the Fleet Uniform tab on the Fleet UI, but who knows.

    However, having a Fleet logo on your uniform could be pretty neat as well...

    I'm going to assume that it's the logo for whatever fleet you're affiliated with. I don't know how the fleet creation system works, but I would assume that you'd get to choose a pre-created emblem for your fleet (like the guild crest in WoW). This logo would then be applied to your starship, if you so choose.

    That's what makes sense to me, at least.

    Supposedly it's the logo of your fleet. Your fleet leader or officers are supposed to choose it I believe.

    In early beta, they had not only the UFP symbol that the ships are using currently, but also a Maquis Fleet logo, and a Vulcan IDIC symbol that you could put on your ship as well. The ship customization UI has been reworked since then however, and there is no longer a drop-down menu for the Fleet Logo, and no interface on the Fleet UI to select or create a logo either.

    *bump*

    If a DEV is around, can you please post a response to this thread. Everyone starting their fleets now is probably asking the same question here. If we are going to be able to upload our own logos, it would be -extremely- helpful to know what the size requirements of our logos should be. It seems unlikely that we'll be able to upload our own logos that we make ourselves, but we can still hope for that.

    Bump.... glad I found this post, was going nuts trying to figure out how to set a logo. I really hope there will be a way to import and image, like Pirates let us. Hmmm.... if they do I should start thinking about what the emblam for the House of Mogra will be. ANd if SWG can have capes I want a cape too!

    Even just simple shapes that we can overlay onto each other and colour, with special shapes for faction symbols. Would give the game a nice creative edge. Although, the risk of the Giant Magenta TRIBBLE Fleet being created would be dangerously high.

    This is one of those features I won't expect to be fully operational for a good 3 months or so.

    Well that would be disappointing... 3 months is a long long time

    Don't know if any of you have checked the ship customisation since today's patch but it looks like they are making preparations to introduce it as the logo is now split into two check boxes "Default" and "Fleet", the fleet one when highlighted still states it's currently unavailable, but at least it looks like they are working on it.

    Capes can be hazardous to your health.
