Default Cool Graphical Glitch

My Monk wears Purple Tattoos.

But.

In the Character Selection screen my monk always shows up in the normal colored tattoos (that light blue color). In the little icon AND the model of the character.

All of my other characters show their dyed armors and such.

This isn't a new thing either, my monk is 4 months old >_> And the model and icon have not YET updated on my character selection screen to show the dye lol. (EDIT: This is alittle misleading, as sometimes it does show Purple in the CS screen [not often] but then the next time I login, its back to the normal tat color)

I just changed the dye on my ranger..logged out..and it had instantly changed the dye color on the C. Selection screen.

yes sometimes it happens with my necro when she has on her purple tats. At the selection screen the tats will sometimes be normal colour not purple. They are still purple when you load the game though so its not a big problem

I rather liked when my tat monk (i have 2 monks) would have the entire tat graphic disappear entirely. She would look like her skin was entirely normal, and that was quiet a bit more attractive.

If you log off without armor on, that's the armor they put on your character for the selection screen (maybe so incase a child opens GW.exe he/she doesn't see a naked warrior? ).

The armor (tattoo) colors reverting to their original colors has been a bug that's been around since release of Prophecies.

The best graphical glitch that happened to me was when my warrior's armor completel changed into a pure shiny platinum color that blinded my eyes lol.

It happens to my monk also when i log out and log back in he's undyed... it's allways been the same, and it's not cool.

I'm assuming it has to do with when the character database is checked. The problem is that on my end it screws up no matter whether I've used the character today or not - in opposing ways!

My monk has arm tats dyed black, and an undyed scalp that's set to "always hide".

When I first log on, the arms stay black but the scalp tat appears under his hair (in undyed sky-blue).

If I use the character then log out, it figures that I want the scalp hidden and removes it... But the arm tats un-dye to light blue!

It is not cool, it is just a glitch, nobody but you can see it unless you take a screenshot, and most people won't care if you do. They should fix it, but they got better things to do than minor fixes that don't affect gameplay.
