Why oh Why does green have to pretty much dominate the Asmodian color pallate?  Is it because no matter what your skin tone actually is on the Asmodian side of the world that the dark greens there will make you look green anyway?  LOL.

Aion's coloring system has some serious flaws, the Elyos world isn't as bright as it should be and colors look just as dark as the Asmodian side. I was looking for lush lands and beautiful skys, only to look up and see the asmodian side in my morning wake.

I have another complaint about the character creation:

One should be able to safe a template for later use. Creating a new char i stumble upon so many great looking combinations which may not fit to the char i'm just about to create, but i would like to use for another later on.

Couldn't agree more.  In beta, I kept finding myself trying to re-create the chars I'd already made elsewhere, only to fail miserably at times.  Closest thing I've found is to take screenshots of your choices and sliders, then try to re-create them as best you can.  Solved it for me somewhat, at least until they figure out how to implement custom presets.

On that note, would be kinda nifty to share presets with others for certain characters.

100% agree with this.

That will alowed players trade "character creation profiles" between them too.

Cool idea  :)

I actually posted a suggestion for this on the beta forums (around CBT2 I think). Wouldn't take much, just a way to dump the values to an XML file, and then a way to pull it back in later.

I had to remake my Elyos three times to get the right skin tone. It will look like ash in-game if you don't overdo the color a bit. There are a lot of ash-skin characters around.

 One thing I would have liked to see was the ability to change hair styles.

Like, if a female toon has long hair, she should be able to change her hairstyle - to any hairstyle that matches the length of her hair.

If they are smart they will steal from thier other games and get this in Aion yeah. The creation system in CoH has that feature, and I'm like you, hopng it shows up here as well.

I think the ambient lighting in Asmodiland kinda makes your character skin color change... I noticed shifts from blues to greens.

I don't like bright green either. I stuck to the part of the palette between green and blue, very high up in the pales. It gives you a very good gothy, believable pale skintone.
