I've been away for 3 days and this happens? Damn.  

Giving the gang leaders a EC could cause everyone to make their own gang. I do not agree with this idea, it could take a lot of time waiting for approval.

this also would result in ez ec hoarding  

I think the gang pics should be put on first, but it goes into a file that gets to be reviewed by staff. The thing is the gang can be active till it is reviewed as bad and it is deleted.

I really like this idea, maybe a room where players could upload their personal graphics (bypass staff) and other players could rate them.

I'd love that. But you'd have the same problem. Idiots posting inappropriate stuff.  

But I wanted to post pics of my wiener

Yea but when i do i like changing it alot, being able to show friends things i made etc, i tested it on classic and it sucked, i stuffed up a gpic and had to wait 30 mins to change it after waiting like 5 mins for it to be accepted

It just seems completely annoying to have to wait for a picture, then wait 30 minutes to change it back, this and talking to friends it the only reason i personally still go on era

I'm not trying to pick on you in particular but your statement seems to be a common theme with many other graalians. The purpose of guild/gang pictures was to have a cool logo for your guild/gang, not for an easy way to show players your creations in a matter of seconds. If you are seriously having an issue with the new rule, why not invest in a free image-sharing app, send things via email, create an online portfolio/acount on places such as deviantart, etc.?  

This might be stupid : Players that has uploaded or done something inappropriate would be relieved from creating a gang / updating a gang pic anymore.

Admin approval? I would say yes and no. I don't want inappropriate images floating around era, turning era into a different kind of game, but admins will have to look at both customs and gang pics. That's more work. Not saying this to offend admins but, it feels as if admins are really picky and strict now when it comes to uploading images. The standards of custom uploading are so strict, it feels as if players are wasting too much time for nothing. Should gang pic approval be strict? It may cause some anger in some players.  

if players post inappropriate pictures they will have a inability to have a picture for 3 weeks? also to decrease inappropriate pictures, every time you tell a admin and that person gets in trouble you get a prize? like 1500 graalats or a ec?

Because these days no-one can be bothered sending emails when showing a gang picture is easier, i wasn't just speaking for myself when i said that, that applies to MANY other gangs, just ask the 100s of graphics gang who use their gang as a mean of showing their work, it honestly feels like everyones being punished because of a few assholes who think they're cool for posting pictures of their dicks.  

Any way to get the statistics of how many guild pictures have been uploaded in the past week?  

No. Just no. Every single custom i upload gets disproved merely because one of the stupid new staff doesnt like it because of their opinion. Now my gang pictures too? God. Damn.  

Maybe when a player tries to upload a picture to their gang, The server sends it to a Player Relation and they have to approve. (Just like on lots of websites.) This is probably the easiest, most simple way of getting rid of all the sick pictures.

EDIT:I didn't read previous posts, my bad. x.x
