Upload Process.
I have found the game graphic uploading process to be a pain. Specifically these areas have been difficult: 1.) Response when image denied - Getting back a three or four word stock response when you have put in time and effort creating an image is frustrating! Even if the pros all know the details, we all want to upload something at some point, and it would be AWESOME to have a little bit of a human interaction when dealing with this... one image I tried to upload took more than 5 attempts with a SINGLE PIXEL being an issue, so far as I could tell when it was actually accepted... 2.) Appropriate image outline - The uploading criteria needs work, or at least some detail. I have seen swords and shields that are guns (both handguns and rifles), bombs, bleeding impaled heads on pikes, nude (or almost) graalians, noobs dismembered in multiple ways, slaves, bondage equipment, gore of various types, etc... and yet when I tried to upload a shield that is a western style ammo belt with two pistols it is considered unacceptable and I am given a warning not to attempt to upload it again? I would understand if the uploading site explicitly said no guns, but it doesn't, and more to the point there are already gun shields in the game!?3.) Expense - I am mentioning this because it is somewhat of a double edged sword... The cost for the cheap items (public sword, shield) is very low, and the cost for heads/bodies is very high. Maybe it has been set at the same price since the dawn of time, though it could be used as a way to solve some of the issues, particularly the 'human touch' that I had mentioned before. In order to cut down the requirement of person-hours for interacting with each and every issue that arises, a price increase for the low-cost uploads could be implemented (say 3k instead of 1000?). In order to encourage players to spend more on custom heads/bodies, they could be put on sale from time to time (half off, say?) or even just have a small reduction in price. Anyway, that's my rant. I hope it's helpful and that others can relate or give me some feedback. |

I hear they have discounted uploading for graaloween. But yah I would agree the head and body prices are a bit steep.

I heard they won't change the price of uploads for Graal-O-Ween (said Furryamigo). But I agree with you... even more since it will take me 5 years to upload my 114 heads. (Well 113 because I already uploaded my Tiger head) If uploads were atleast 50% for heads and bodies it would be better. Because 50%= Body for 5000 and Head for 10000 And if they need a riot for that we'll do one! Lol
