You see this camel?
That long, rectangular piece of cloth hanging off the sides of that saddle could be used to display our alliance banner or guild banner. A similar piece can be applied to the saddles of any mount.
In the "Options" menu, under "Gameplay", an option can be placed right underneath "Hide Helmets".
It'd be called "Hide Mount Banners", with the options being:
• Yes
• Guild Banner
• Alliance Banner
• Both 1
• Both 2
If "Yes" is chosen, your mount will look exactly as it does on Live. No changes.
If "Guild Banner" or "Alliance Banner" is chosen, the appropriate Banner will display on the new pieces of cloth (or whatever looks nice) which is visible hanging from the sides of the mount saddle.
If "Both 1" is chosen, the Alliance Banner will place itself on the left side, and the Guild Banner on the right side. "Both 2" would simply swap sides.
The guild banner displayed would be determined by whatever guild tabard your character is currently wearing. If not wearing a guild tabard, the "guild banners" would display as empty white pieces of cloth.
Simple and very cool. Thoughts?

The last MMO I knew of that introduced "flying" mounts, made them more "hovering" mounts, as in they could not go more than 4 ft off the ground, and could only move the same as mounts on 4 legs. Balance is important.
However, I WOULD support the previous posters idea of putting Alliance motifs/regalia/armor on the current mounts.

Like maybe something like this for the Altmer for example
This!
Dragon/eagle mounts wouldnt be lore friendly... As you might remember from Skyrim, you could only ride dragon if you bend its will with specific shout, and only temporary. There's also Odahviing, but its only possible to ride him once and its a part of the quest. And in general, dragon are sentient being so riding them is like riding an argonian or khajiit.
Also I dont remember tamed giant eagles in TES lore, and I think they've said they are not gonna introduce flying mounts.
But I would like some better looking horses (once I've posted some pictures and suggestions in alliance-styled gear.
I dont quite understand what type of player these dragon wanting people are. No offense meant but clearly you guys neither follow the lore of the single player games nor have any idea how balance breaking it would be for an open world MMORPG like Eso.

Let people spend that kind of crazy money on the top two mounts, which ZOS can then invest into fixing the game.
(Ok I voted yes but I didn't REALLY mean yes. For those that can't sense the sarcasm, this answer should not be taken seriously)
