As many of you probably know Archer was president of the United Federation of Planets from 2184 - 2192. I thought it'd be cool to photoshop something together of what he might look like at this time.
Picture of Archer as UFP President in 2184!

SO ties are still worn? That's disappointing.
Nerys_Myk:
By this time, he had already retired from Starfleet with the rank of Admiral. I had no idea what to "dress" him in for this time period because there is very little (to none) information out there about what uniforms were like during this particular time period (much less for Federation Presidents) ... so i assumed that since this was only 23 years after Enterprise NX-01 was decommissioned the uniforms probably hadn't changed too much. So i figured maybe he was feeling nostalgic and wanted to toss on his old dress uniform?
teacake:
that's pretty much the reason he's wearing a tie ... because in the 2150s and 60s admirals uniforms consisted of such. And while it's possible that the uniform could have changed drastically from 2161 to 2184, seeing as how there is not very much evidence out there that it had (or i couldnt find it) i figured it would be reasonable to say that it hasn't changed all that much.
Now, would he still be wearing a Starfleet uniform as the PResident? probably not - but it's the best i could come up with to be honest. My main focus was aging him.

He looks.. warmer.
I think you need to photoshop him with these awesome specs and in a nice robe.. antique french stuff would also help.
Nice job. And I learned something new about Archer.
But the president is a civilian. He'd probably be wearing the 22nd century equivalent of a business suit, not a uniform. (Edited to say oops, I see you've already addressed that.)

I actually do mind - it will cost you 5,672,128 dilithium crystals.
LoL. Just kidding - it's fine.

Hey, good luck collecting.
As a veteran of Starfleet, Archer would be entitled to wear his uniform whenever he chose, AFAIK. Even as president.
Because a President of a democratic country has no business wearing a uniform, commander in chief or not.Appalled? Because he's wearing a starfleet uniform, when STAdventures explained the choice of dress? Why?
Cool picture.
And I always suspected the Federation of being a soft military dictatorship, so I don't mind the uniform.
