I think it would be really useful to have a little icon next to the breeding cooldown, element, and familiar icons on prog dragons signifying that it's not tradeable. It would be really great for players to be able to tell quickly at a glance which ones are progs when looking in other peoples' nests and would help people remember you can't trade them.

[quote name="Georgieanna" date="2013-06-15 19:05:22" url="main.php?p=mb&board=sug&page=1&id=80901#81656"]This topic interested me less for what it does [a pretty useful little idea] but spurred my interest more in "what would a good icon for that BE?" It's not an easy thing to make instinctive, subtle but strong, and of course attractive.
My suggestion would be metal heart lock {I think metals would look better than red/pink, but it still covers a wide range of possible hues, silver was just easiest to mock up in paint}

Support, especially for newbies.

I think this is a good idea! It would suck to fall in love with someone else's dragon only to discover they're progenitors. Ah, the unattainable, how you tease us.

I love how that heartlock looks!
Support! I dont think there's any way to tell it's a progenitor, other than having no parentage. (And I havent gotten an egg yet, but I think the eggs have no parentage either). So it would be hard to tell.
I also like Georgieanna's idea :)
