This is a small thing but I was wondering. When you change paradigms for characters does it also change the class name they have in the main menu?

Nope, class names are always the same for characters. Originally, Cid was going to start off as a Mercenary and then change names to Machinist, but I just decided to keep it as Machinist all the time (in this screen, it's Engineer, but that's outdated now).
We've started designing new menus for the game. Here's the main menu in it's new form. It features bigger character portraits and more stylized gauges, without relying on a windowskin for graphics.
Looks pretty cool. is it possible to change colors? Also, that limit break gauge looks a little too long in the menu.

No, the colors cannot be changed. The Limit meter is exactly the combined length of the HP/MP meters.
Damn, could you make this look any more awesome?

..well, the option to change the Window skin or the colors would be cool. (Grey is one of my favorite colors, but I'd sure love to see this in pink!) This is just a nitpick, but I think the Level indicator should be moved above the HP/MP/Limit Gauges. Nothing more than a nitpick though.

OFF TOPIC: It was somewhat glaring that in the original demo, Wedge's portrait had black hair, but his sprites were the unedited Edward sprite from The After Years. Has this been fixed?
Ah, I see that makes sense to fill out space. I noticed the Augment/Relic tab was missing, does that mean the relics are just gonna be listed under equipment?

Everything that can be equipped is in the Equipment menu (Relics, Paradigms, and Nethicite).

Sprites and art may not match up for a while. Lyra has red hair in her artwork, for example. There's so much to be done, and I am prioritizing scripts and bugs for myself (there is a HUGE one I have nagging at me right now), and I'm sure Paul has more than a full plate doing art for areas. Hopefully I can do it soon, but it's unlikely to be matched up for a little while.

Oh, sweet. You finally posted the new main menu. I love it. :D

I've got a full plate indeed with the location artwork. But hopefully I'll be making lots of progress in the next two weeks. Unfortunately, it seems sprites are at the waaay bottom of my list for now. Aside from the location art, I've had about two dozen-ish character portraits sitting around half finished for a couple of months now. Got to finish those asap. Its more sensible to complete portrait artwork before dealing with the sprites in case the artwork changes down the line...

Oops. Should I have said that? *cough*
I'm also going to take a look at this again sometime later, possibly move where the status icons are displayed (not shown in this screen shot, unfortunately) and the character level to free up some space and reduce clutter.
*tries to hide the boner*
This is simply AMAZING! I love how Final Fantasy XIII-esque look it has!
I wonder what is that "gil" coin, though.
I can't stop looking at that portrait of Ellie. Hope my girlfriend doesn't find out lol.
The Gil coin is taken from FF14.
