====UPLOAD RULES OF ERA IPHONE=====
Last Update: July 27, 2017
Upload Administrators:

General:
- We only allow human and animal heads/bodies. No fictitious beings, no creatures that do not exist today. No extraterrestrial-looking creatures. Animal customs are only allowed as long as they fit in the template. On another note they also need to be pixelated. So no real-life cat images that are cropped in the head template, for example.
- No staff heads are allowed. No slight edits of them either. There will soon be a room full of staff heads that will be available for players to review.
- No customs that use different colors in different frames. This is only allowed in death/hit frames. However, the head has to stick to its shape.
- No images that may be deemed racist or offensive against a player(s) or real-life individuals.
- No translucent, invisible or small heads and bodies. We do not tolerate uploads that are significantly larger or smaller than the templates.
- No heads or bodies that only show outlines.
- No images which may disturb gameplay:
- flashing heads
- gore or violent-glowing shields
- shields that cover more than 50% of the players character
- no customs which make you appear invisible on certain grounds, such as grass-looking heads or bodies
- no drug-related images
- No images that are pictures of real life people and/or real life animals.
- Respect copyrights and only upload graphics that you have made yourself or that you are authorized to use. Any concepts that are taken from television shows, video games or any other forms of media will not be accepted. It is therefore encouraged that you design original ideas for your graphics to avoid any issues that may arise.
- No customs that have copyrighted logos on them; such as Batman, Spiderman, Nike, Adidas and so on.
- Weapons are not allowed to be put on customs. Bodies with guns on their back will be disapproved.
- No customs that face in the wrong direction. This is a common error with heads.
- Do not use pure black or pure white in your graphics. These two colors are used for transparency in-game and will not be visible on any images that are uploaded.
Heads:
- We only allow small animations on heads. Such as mouth/ears moving as well as eyes blinking. We do not tolerate heads that have smoke coming out of their mouths.
- Small bandanas on heads are acceptable. As long as they do not cover the entire head, they are to be accepted.

- We do not allow status codes.
- No shields which show up as hats, heads or bodies.
- We also do not permit shields that include the head or likeliness of any staff member.

We do not tolerate:

- Racism
- Images or words that are offensive or slanderous towards another player or staff
- Pictures with sexual/pornographic content
