When I'm browsing through All Subeta Items I keep coming across NPCs. The icon is just fancy text which looks like "You'd sure like to see on mage here, eh?" Most of them are turning up in the full body layer.
PS: Dirty Matty is in the body layer. I wish there really was a wearable version of him. :D
Yeah, they've been there since the 3.5 release, and some of the items have normal images and don't say NPC anywhere obvious on them so I get excited about buying them!
Seeing NPCs from past plots in the wardrobe makes me worry that if the staff are planning any events new NPC outfits might show up the the wardrobe before the official release and ruin the surprise. Otherwise I suppose it doesn't hurt to be able to play around with the outfits for NPCs in the wardrobe, so maybe it's an intended feature and not a bug? Though maybe more consistent labelling would be good.
It is technically a wearable that is part of the wardrobe (since the NPCs wear it) but just not available to users. So there is really no need for an item image. It's not really something to be fixed.

I guess the question is what's different about this version of the wardrobe where the NPC items show up at all? Because I think in the one before they didn't show up, even when browsing all of the site items.
It's not that big of a deal or something that really needs to be fixed, just a weird thing is all.
- I wasn't bothered about the items not having a proper image. I was just wondering why the NPCs were were in the wardrobe and thought it might be a bug.
- The problem is that they shouldn't be showing up. Or at least they never did in previous versions of the wardrobe, and I assume they're showing up unintentionally now.
If I remember right, they're all something like r201 ("staff item" I think) and we're not supposed to see those anywhere on the site.

The item images don't need to be fixed; the fact that they show up in the wardrobe at all is what needs to be fixed. They seem like items that users shouldn't be seeing.
