---------------------------------------------------------

General rules (heads, bodies):

- We only allow human and mammal customs (no fishes, birds, anything that isn't a mammal). No fictitious beings and no creatures that do not exist today. No extraterrestrial-looking creatures. No mythical creatures (dragons, etc).

- Animal (mammal) customs are only allowed as long as they fit in the template. However, the images cannot be a real picture of an animal.

- We do allow zombie customs due to how often they have been used (by staff aswell) in the past. Zombie heads are not allowed to show any part of the brain or excessive amounts of blood. They also must still have human facials (eyes, mouth, etc).

- 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 (this includes "meme-heads" like troll face, etc). No customs that have copyrighted logos on them such as Batman, Spiderman, Nike, Adidas and so on.

- We do NOT allow food customs.

- Customs that are deemed overly sexualised or explicit will not be accepted.

- No customs that face in the wrong directions.

- No customs which make you appear invisible on certain grounds, such as grass-looking heads or bodies.

- 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 that are pictures of real life people and/or real life animals.

- Weapons on customs are not allowed.

- Different colors in different frames is not allowed. Text (such as your name for example) can be added on the head but the frames must still be consistent (For example, if you write your name on one of the back-view frames of your head it must be on all the back-view frames). It is however fine to have, for example, closed eyes on a grab frame or something of that sort, as long as the colors of face, hair, etc stay the same as in the other frames.

- We won't accept customs with missing frames.

- Full pitch black heads/bodies are not allowed. Generally, customs that are just in one color won't be accepted.

- We do not allow any drug related images.

- No images that may be deemed racist or offensive against a player(s) or real-life individuals.

- 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.

- We do not allow any political topics/figures to be brought into the game via custom uploads, shields or gang logos.
---------------------------------------------------------

Heads:

- Small bandanas on heads are acceptable as long as they do not cover the entire head (aka go around the entire head). This can be either on top of the head and/or worn as a mouth/neck bandana.

- Any other sort of hats on heads will not be tolerated. Glasses and pacifiers are considered as hats and are therefor also not allowed on heads.

- No heads depicting any figure (political or otherwise) that may cause offense to any person or group of people.

- We don't allow heads that have frames facing in the wrong directions or frames that are out of place. We also don't allow heads with missing frames.

- Players are not allowed to upload any protected staff heads. Slightly edited versions of them are also not allowed.

Animations:

- We only allow small animations on heads, such as mouth/ears moving and eye animations. Glowing earrings are also allowed, however they can't have a flashy animation. Heads that have smoke coming out of their mouths or animations on any part of the face/head (except those mentioned previously) will not be accepted.

- For eye animations; We allow flame eye animations, however the animations have to stay within the eye/eye area. Any eye animation that exceeds the eye by a couple pixles will not be accepted. Changing eye color animations are allowed as long as the animation isn't flashing. We don't allow "glitch" effect animations on the eyes.

For an easier understanding we made this image with example of eye animations that we allow. (Note, this does not mean Your animations have to be exactly like those. This is just an example to show what we mean by "eye/eye area".) Any eye animations that are bigger than those in the examples are not allowed.

- Moving hair animations are allowed. (Please note, this doesn't mean something can move ON the hair, it means that the hair itself can move i. e. a "hair moving in the wind" type of effect.)

---------------------------------------------------------

Bodies:

- We do not allow body animations.

- We do not allow bodies with weapons attached.

- No food bodies.

- We do not allow bodies with missing/extra body parts (they do not work within the player movement animations).

- We do not allow 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 allow status codes.

- We do allow shield animations. However, they should not disturb the gameplay in any way. No flashing animations.

- The maximum width for a shield is < 512 PX and height is < 128 PX.

Gang pictures:

Most pictures are acceptable as long as they do not include images or content that is vulgar/offensive towards someone else. No inappropriate images.

We do NOT tolerate:

- Real-Life pictures (this includes ANYTHING that is real life)
