+1 to the idea of an actual image editor for tokens (or character sheet portraits for that matter)
It would be nice if it could allow cropping or positioning the uploaded graphic within a square (or hex) field. I've had images I used as tokens that I had to edit externally because they had a rectangular shape that resulted in a small token if used directly.
Your example sounds like you also want it to directly drop the image on the VTT as a token. For that, you'd probably also want to be able to set the linked character sheet, name field, and other attributes of the token.
Actually yes. For versatility it would definitely make sense to be able to use it with the VTT. Perhaps after creation of a token an option can appear, other dialog options can be made to complete either the creation of the character or even NPC.
Maybe not a complete overhaul for a "character creator" though that would be nice...but have the tokens automatically generate a "character sheet" PC/NPC for ease of use.
