Screenshots as paintings ( With an actual bypass to abuse )
Wouldn't it be the coolest thing ever to have screenshots and memories from your time together framed on the walls in your FC house..

I know, there would be ways to abuse it if you simply uploaded it from your screenshots folder.

But what if we could bypass that, by making some sort of token which you would pay, say 200 k gil for, or even a mogstation fee, and with that token you had to ability the "process" a picture taken ONLY through G-pose, a function within G-Pose where you can print a picture you have taken into an item in your inventory.

It would be a little bit of work for SE, but it would be so rewarding man.

Any thoughts or improvements to this idea, please join in and discuss

Oh an also, yes people might get creative with their characters and do "inappropriate poses" etc, but they can already do that now, in the open world. This would be behind closed doors at least.

I would like see some kind of tombstone/memorial added, preferably both as an outdoor and indoor item.

The main feature should be the ability to add custom texts - the text doesnt has to show on the furniture itself, I'd like to see if work like the Message Book Stand. (Actually, basically what I want is a Message Book Stand in the shape of a tombstone)
The design could either be a "classic (western)" tombstone or maybe a statue (maybe a smaller version of the Thal statue thats already an asset in game?).

I've seen several requests from several people who lost ingame friends over the years for some way to memorialise those friends - the latest request was to make an NPC in memory of a friend who passed away. Something like this would give people the option to build some sort of memorial for their lost ones - seeing how the Message Book is already possible, this would "only" need a different model.

Triangular cottages, instead of square houses

Hi SE,

I'm a new player to this game in 2021, it is disappointed to know housing are very limited and expensive in game, these game contents are luxury to new players and unable to experience it unless I got enough gil.

LED strip lights... please add these to make lighting accents easier and less item intensive. Also, please make them dyeable or offered in different colors. We do not have hardly any ACTUAL colored lighting that reflects off white surfaces in the color it is... like the boules. Was really looking forward to using those for colored lights but they don't give off any colored light or its a very dim rendition of the color which just looks white. Please add LED strips... horizontal and vertical that give off light in all directions (no directionality to the light)

More carbucle furniture. Also, either dyeable or the current stuff in different colors.

This may be an unpopular one but: in 6.0.5 or whatever (before 6.1 patch, but not like, release week 6.0), apartments that haven't been entered in 3+ years should be demolished. Apartments were added in...3.4? That would give them some wiggle room to come in for the latest expansion if the hot new thing is what's needed. Honestly, even demolishing them sometime soon probably wouldn't be a big deal.

By no means am I suggesting that apartments should get auto-demolished every 45, 90, or even every few months, but there are some apartments that have no doubt gone unused since they were released five years ago.
