I think you should be able aswell even if it was restricted to Friends only like the Personal Gamer Pictures using the Camera are going to be.

Yup...the thnig is though MS are aming so much money off selling gamerpics I doubt they will want to let everyone have a custom one, tbh.

If they make custom ones then they'll have to stop selling gamerpics for a profit, as people could just save picture as on xbox.com lol.
I wish they would to though, I want a decent skateboarding gamerpic. :(

Yeah, it's frustrating. Oh well. Maybe you can take decent enough pictures with the camera to be able to kindasorta fudge one.

i reckon what microsoft should do is setup an online paint program, then charge you 60-100 MS points to create 1 custon gamerpic, it would have to be sent off to them first to make sure its kid friendly (raised ;))
that way they still get their money and you get your custom pic (Y)

Yeh, thats a pretty good idea phat (Y) My one worry would by copyrights ad stuff like that, but if they'd have to be approved, they could easily block copy protected images.

i just cant see why they cant have a system to send off and approve your XLVC (just made that up :cool:, Xbox Live Vision Camera) gamerpics, then use them for everyone to see.
it cant take more than 5 mins to check it, they could have a day turn around for it

Thinking about it more.. Way too much hassle for 'em. Way. And being rejected over and over with a day turn around sounds like bad mojo.

Technically you should be 18+ Years to Access Xbox Live, however you can connect via Parents Permission (as far as I know).
So they could just do what they are doing with the Video Camera and that is putting in place Parental Guidance options.
Obviously Gamerpics would be able to be delivered to anyone who has PArental Controls of there by eliminating the possibility of offending people with Rude Images.
To prevent Racist or Copyrightten Images being used they could actually manage there complinants sytem better that why eliminating the risk.
Also this shouldn't be avialable to Xbox Live Silver Members.

I wonder how many people are actually 18+, though? 8-)
I bet there's a good percentage under. And without anyone's permission, changing your age on e-mail address 4tw. 8-) :D

I agree and with the new pre-paid cards I'm sure the numbr of Under 18's signing up to Xbox Live will increase. However it still doesn't take away the fact that you are "meant" to be 18+.
Once again it seems if Microsoft enforced the rules more reguraly then alot of these problems or issuses could be made easier for everyone else to enjoy.
