Was touched on it briefly in the Q and A the other night but it would be nice to allow team owners to upload their own custom fields just like with the team userpic option.

2 things can happen
1) Allow the field to be uploaded without being reviewed by an administration. You just click on fields, browse your files and find your field and upload it. You can even force the script to make sure the field is 520 x 1160. Make it a rule that if teams violate a rule by having nudity or discriminative fields they are subject to losing their team. That will curb all team owners from trying to be cute about their fields.
* If an opponent or someone browsing views a team owner breaking this rule they can pm support and support can either issues a warning or make the team go cpu. Tough consequences will make people think twice before breaking the rule.
* Have a forum set up asking for custom fields, might bring some life back into the game. Also it will allow some of us with the ability to custom fit fields that are not the correct size.

2) Have the upload option and have to wait until admins approve the field. This option though is unnecessary as I think option one would be plenty enough penalty if the field was deemed rude. Files would be stored on a database with team ID, File of picture and 2 check boxes. The file could be used to pull the data from the database and the field could be in thumb view to make it quick for the admins to do several in a short amount of time. He could just go down the page and view and select the check box to approve or disapprove and then submit the lot on one click.

I like this idea a lot, to eliminate alot of the scripts is something they should've done right away. I also like option 1 better. it steam lines the process, and eliminates unnecessary waiting and burden on staff. you should just edit out option 2 imo.

Eliminating the scripts would have required Bort to actually allow his paid admins to do something. I always thought it was stupid to sit back and allow all these third party scripts but it is what it is.

More and more games like and allow user based mods, so scripts shouldn't be that much of an issue. Now if the scripts were finding exploits, then yes those should be worked on avoided.
Things like the field, 10 yard marker, pbp, player highlighter (it could go on) exist points to deficiencies in the game itself. These are all small things that should be incorporated.

I can't believe they haven't done this by now. A few penis lovers are keeping this from happening I guess. This doesn't seem like it would be overly hard to make happen.
