Ok heres a idea to the ships of the game allowing a player to create a ICON to place on the ship they select and how they choose to edit and create them. For the fleet members players get seperate ICONs and fleet TAG ICONs placed on there ships for independence or representation, or customized ship color

Erm... you mean like a decal that you can put on your ship, as in Homeworld 2? And customizable color schemes? That's all been discussed before, and while it's a cool idea, I don't see it happening. Not yet at least.

I figured the players would want a good looking ship or icon insteed of looking the same like placing your badge that you like on a spot of you ship to show your skill

Like Bob said.
Id also personally like to see some kind of distinctive markings on Ships piloted by Cool people that are GA ranked , so we can Show off and feel big.

Decals would be awesome, perhaps even make them rank specific? Like you can unlock different pics each rank...

We've tossed this about before, enabling naming or custom skins or fleet logos on ships, but fear of how to implement them or keep them "appropriate" became a concern.
Reviewing how the Damage is displayed by overlay of textures, it might be feesable to update the engine to allow me to set a mat area like 256 by 256 (though scaled to fit each ship) and allow fleets to add an image to their fleet page which would then publish to the resourcer and game once approved.
This could be a priveledge afforded to fleets.
There are more background rewrites happening that once completed will allow admins to publish data directly into beta dynamically. Once 1.483 goes release that same code may work for this. Will talk to F about it.

Have talked to F and its is already on the to do list, so eventually fleets can place a decal on their ships.
