Title says it all.  Everything is Startrek & Star Wars when it comes to uniforms and ships for the most part and everythign seems to be for Genesis2 or earlier generations.  We need new product in a big way.  We need BSG & Expanse style content.  Even Orville style content will do.  Ships, sets, enviornments, clothing, creatures, characters, anything.  Come on boys and girls, there is a demand out there and it will sell.  Just haver to create it so we can buy it.

    Come to that, some retro-future stuff like you'd see in old space-opera serials of the 40s and 50s, or space adventures of the 60s and 70s, done for Genesis 3 and Genesis 8 would be a good choice, too.

    I'd love to see this for newer characters: The Privateer

    I used parts of this and a comment was made that it had a vaguely BGS look. I'd love a true BGS look.

     

    EDIT: Whoops. It was late for me. Someone else posted it

    You need to give store pages, not pages from your product library.

    I guess it worked because I own that thing.

    Vendors would need to do things that are inspired or completely original.

    The Star Trek guys have been getting around the copyright thing for years.  We don't need exact copies.  We need stuff in that style.  For instance there is certain product named the "Wilber" on another site that is the "almost" spitting image of a certain TV show ships bridge but since it is just different enough, the content artist doesn't get sued.

    Can't sell other company's copyrighted or trademarked IP content commercially.  It's illegal and certainly not worth the risk.  And the cost of getting license is prohibitive even if a deal could be arranged.

    Fan work is one thing, but if you are putting stuff in a reputable store and actually selling it, you need to adhere to a higher standard.

     

    If you think 'but this other store sells IP stuff all the time!', it's probably a store in another country people can't touch and they can get away with violating law because nobody can manage to stop them.

    And if it's a store like that, and you are giving them credit card information, maybe reflect on how good idea that is if it's a company that can disappear and reappear overnight and that law enforcement can't touch.
