Thinking out loud...

When I was picking powers for my first tanker recently I really wanted to see what the weaponry looked like, as well as what the power details were. So I was wondering if the following change, adding an image to any powersets with weaponry, would be a good idea (I'd do the pics in essentially the same format as the one below). Thoughts?

Well, I don't know about others, but I like this idea a lot =). Actually, I have gone one step further and have pictures of every single weapon in-game, ready to upload them. It definitively adds immersion. Perhaps a screenshot of a player using powers for the powersets which have no weapons, as well? Hmmm...

Why don't you drop by the forums and make a post there, so everyone can see and opine about this? I can tell you this idea already has my support! =D

Ah, nice screenie, BTW!
