Now, I know there are far more important things do do, but I would love to see some new loading screens for the old world. Some of them I love to see (the dragons especially) however some of them i cant even stand to look at (the halfling with the knife) and they're all getting quite tiresome.  I feel for those who take longer to load than I do, and I would love to see some new artwork displayed.  Some things that come to mind: Racial artworks (perhaps a male and female of each race standing in something like their element.. wood elves amongst tree's one with perhaps a bow dressed in ranger gear, the other with a druidic scimitar and a spell covering one hand, a male Erudite with a tome of knowledge and a female holding a magical staff.  etc) A artwork of the zone you are coming into showing a good visual of it (a picture to cover the entirely of Qeynos, a pictur eof Antonica, etc) A stylised rendition of famous figures (the Lucan D'Lere one comes to mind) Each of these would also work well for pictures craftable via tradeskills. Anyway, thats my 2cp today <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

I don't mind the loading screens myself. I usually take a quick afk or just chat, double check my quest journal, achievements, etc. It just requires a zoning UI mod like: <a href="http://www.eq2interface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=3522" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.eq2interface.com/downloa...nfo.php?id=3522</a> Othesus - Dirge - Lucan DLere Vaspar - Fury - Lucan DLere

How about adding silly little messages while loading. Sanding wood elves, teaching snakes to kick, that sort of thing <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
