  1. Can you get banned for having a custom gamer pic?


    So a lot of videos have surfaced recently on ways to change your gamer pic to a custom one externally on your computer. They usually involve some kind of editing software and uploading the pic through your account settings on xbox.com.

    I was wondering, can you get banned for doing this if the picture isn't offensive in any way? I've seen people get banned from having things like swastikas, which is no surprise, but I've been wanting a Yugioh themed gamer pic for the longest time (or just
    a Pikachu or something). I don't want to risk getting banned though.

    :)

    Will I get banned for having custom gamer pictures

    There is many videos surfacing of people able to make custom gamer pics through xbox's website. They take the picture url of a normal one you may choose and inspect element, gathering a different picture from any other microsoft websites. Such as xbox music
    and movies. Then copying that url into inspect of the old gamerpic. I see many of my friends hoping on this. I think its cool? Can I do it, and will I get banned if so? Since its only microsoft based websites and pictures, you can't get any 18+ if you get
    my drift.

  4. Can you get banned for having a custom gamer pic?

    Hi there.

    Major Nelson recently put a custom pic (or what looks to be a custom pic) on his account so they must be coming. No other details are currently available though.

    May want to wait it out a bit longer.

    At the moment it is against the ToU/CoC to use a custom gamerpic.

    The feature is coming though & a select few in the insider program are testing this feaure.

    You'll have to wait a bit but soon you should be able to use custom gamerpics.

    Custom Gamerpics

    Sorry but they use past behavior (even comm bans) to allow gamers to use custom gamerpics. I'm not sure how long after a ban you can use a custom gamer pic. No one with Microsoft's support can override this as this a function of the enforcement team

    Are custom gamer pics allowed?

    I heard on the Xbox one beta app that you can use an image for a custom gamer pic, is that allowed for a custom gamer pic?
