I really like the new faces in the game.

I had a bunch of final rendering problems (I've corrected them in photoshop, but I have also submitted a petition to re-do it), but here is my new character (the second picture was taken shortly before the final version):

Why does this stupid game not update through steam

That would require the EVE Online client from the CCP website to have to update the same way. Games that update through Steam are done in a particular way, and I'm not sure CCP wants to invest time into that right now. Just launch the client and do it through there!

No it wouldn't, millions of games create separate patched for standalone clients vs. steam.

I did, but it had to be the slowest patch download I've ever had the misfortune of sitting through in years. Steam would have done it in a few minutes.

Also, they seriously need to let us change our race. Since it doesn't effect stats anymore having a race that doesn't represent my ethnicity is pointless.

Tiny Chesticles

Never knew you didn't have to wear a top, hah (referring to Tiny Chesticles).

[Leader Bee]

neither of those look like the original T@T, Ihatechosingnames in particular. Shame about the hair, but Chesticles is pretty delicious - I certainly would.

If you are not happy with the character portrait that you have made for your character, do not despair. In the next few days we are going to give everyone who has already customized their character at that time one re-customization for use during the grace period. This will allow you to restart the character portrait creation process with your current character portrait as the starting point. Please be aware that once you have saved your character portrait it will be final until we introduce in-game re-customization in a future release.

The month long grace period we advertised refers to the period during which you can log into the game without a character portrait. Once this month grace period is over you will no longer be able to log in without going through the new character creator to create a new portrait for your character.

Best regards,
The EVE Online Customer Support Team

For some reason, they disabled the option in-game for now.

[T@T-2-MoNk3y]

they delayed the release of todays update...

hopefully tomorrow i can sort my characters out...

[Flamov]

I just finished re-doing the new character portraits (second run) and here's the result. Sans the rendering artifacts in the first portrait, I am rather pleased with the results!
