Well doesn't badspot add community made avatars to the game if he likes them?

You can already put bad images in textures and prints. You can even build bad images with bricks.

It has enough to do with networking.

It wouldn't be fair. No support.

And really. When do you ever see your own face/decal through normal play? The whole point of them is to show to other players.
Completely agree with OP. This needs to be done and would be really nice to also have a "Download Faces & Decals" checkbox in the networking options tab in case some people don't want to see them.

well, maybe you can "host" the image for the amount of time your playing in the server, and when you leave, you stop "hosting" and it doesn't get downloaded to anyones computer

downloading everyone's decals could be annoying. but if the host is using custom decals, you should auto-download them so you can see custom uniforms and outfits and such!

Except that can't work.

Annoying? It would only really be what they're currently wearing, and would stream in-game, stored in cache.db.
