Leah? The GFX admin who has worked on iClassic for
how many years didn't know that a first place GST hat existed? How about the remake of the dolphin hat from 3 months ago (that she also made for this Christmas)? Isn't that more of a testament to how bad she is, and not how great she is? I'm confused as to what you're trying to say here.
Uh, okay. Let's move beyond your admission that the GFX team on iClassic sucks and get to the point.. Are you asking why sparrers should be respected parts of the Graal community? Here's the extremely simple answer for you, since you're apparently mentally incapable of understanding: you are not giving me an incentive to play this game when you update GST hats and re-release them. You're telling me that the competitive side of this game doesn't matter. Apparently what matters more is being part of the "Graal chatroom" and spam "G4G" so that you can get as many gifts as possible in order to get these updated GST hats.
Unfortunately I have a feeling that I'm speaking to a brick wall here since you clearly don't participate in any real gameplay on this game outside of making graphics. You guys should honestly just start reselling old US GST hats exactly as they were made, it's not like you have much respect for them anyways:

I won't out the person that did it because they seemed genuinely apologetic about it and assured me that it wouldn't happen again, but at this point I couldn't care less for any GST hat that I've ever won which is why I'm trying to get help deleting them all.
Either way, I have no idea how it doesn't make you feel like a ****ty GFX artist in general to have to reuse old ideas because you're creatively incapable of thinking of a different object to put on a head.
