yeah ive been thinking about it a lot... ff3 and most oldschool rpgs didnt
change appearance based on armor but i think ti is awesome when it does but
i dunno the headaches are worth it.  maybe in the body types we just have
like 10 different ones with different clothing that the player can pick
through and customize colors.  then we could make more for NPC's, etc.

i dunno what do you guys think
