Skins@HWT unlikely to support DoW2

More detail is available in a forum thread for further discussion, but at the current time Skins@HWT is unlikely to provide content for Dawn of War 2.
While I was looking forwards to the improvements in Dawn of War 2, it has apparently been decreed that the game will not include the ability to add badges due to the fact that a tiny minority of DoW players used badges and banners that were offensive to another tiny minority of players - things such as pictures of genitals, swastikas and gesticulations.
There are hints that the community is already trying to include badges and colours (which are being sold as 'bonuses' with collectors editions of the game) but they will generally break online play.
So, I'm sorry to disappoint anyone looking forward to equally great things in Dawn of War 2, but for myself and the Skins@HWT site the foreseeable future is the original Dawn of War all the way. Please feel free to drop your comments in to our forum thread.
