I read on another site that this has been done and it's a little more complicated (plus,if you f*ck it up - you can't revert back and you have no logo/crest).
Not worth the risk right now. I'd wait.

Can you please message me a link to that website? It will help me out greatly.

Maybe if people wouldn't have been as immature as to put boobs or f*cking or weed, or whatever it was that got it taken away, as their emblems, we wouldn't be in this mess...

Haha, your signature played into your reply perfectly.. xD
Anyways, I'm hoping there is a new way around it. Personally I can't do anything to my liking with the current editor.

There's plenty topless women in the game and your character can smoke his lungs out but god forbid if a crew emblem has a watery svg tit or pot leaf in it lmfaooo R*!!

There is a way around the problem! Go to the Reddit forums and search 'Crew emblems after patch' and there are instructions there.

It's about copyrighted images, not offensive content.

How about just not glitch it and make an emblem with the creator like Rockstar intended everyone to do?
It was patched for a reason.

It's all about this^ From R* crew list on Social club: The only 'Red Bull' Crew with the original Logo. If you post Crew Emblems I'll block you!

The tutorials out there produced crappy SVG / HTML codes which were destructive for the emblem editor – and maybe for the ingame rendering engines as well.
Therefore, R* patched the editor in order to keep the emblems' codes clean (at least this was one of the reasons besides copyright issues etc.).
But it is still possible to insert custom shapes, this has never been patched.
It's all about proper coding and maintaining all of the editor's syntax and structure.
Proof: I have uploaded and successfully activated this custom crew emblem 30 minutes ago:
http://de.socialclub...south_germany_9
I am a graphic designer with years of experience in editing vector images, SVG coding etc. and even for me it is not simple to do. It takes knowledge, patience and meticulousness. Any little mistake will lead to a failure during the attempt to save and/or upload the emblem, along with a warning message from R* threatening account ban. Therefore, i will not tell any more details about how to do it.

Get your SVG Code - You DO NOT need lines one and two. Just everything from line 3 down to the end. (edit: since you will later be replacing the dimensions in the emblem editor, you need at the line of code that has the SVG dimensions in it. I have made all of my SVG's with the desktop version of VectorMagic and the dimensions start on line three...If you used the web version of VM then the SVG dimensions start at line two. If you are unsure, then just copy ALL OF THE SVG's code)
-
Go to the emblem editor in a browser like Chrome - set the background to transparent and the right click and select "Inspect Element"
-
Same thing as before again -find the line of code that starts "<rect x=0..." and right click and then select "Edit as HTML"
-
This is the new step - Highlight everything BEFORE "</rect>" and then paste your your custom SVG code http://i.imgur.com/qTveCz1.png
-
Your image will appear to be too large - Dont worry about that, I have tried it with all sizes of images. So long as your image started out at 512x512 it will display properly. Click "save"
-
Treat it just like a standard emblem and then activate it - YOU NOW HAVE A CUSTOM SVG BASED EMBLEM!!!

There are still ways around it but if you do it now you get a notification that your logo is in violation and that action will be taken against your account if not removed or so I heard.

Congrats. This will lead loads of people to run into R*'s warning message and to stuff the forums with questions like "where can i find my custom SVG code".
Good luck.

I actually think their emblem editor is pretty easy to work with, but if it had letters and numbers, it would be perfect.

Yeah, but it's an 18-rated game. Yes, it's immature, but it should be allowed.

Can anybody help a brother out? Is love to have this image as my crew logo. Just without the white around it, as in with a transparent background. Just the tongue with no background and no text following the image line. Can anybody help?

It's about copyrighted images, not offensive content.
But R* never said, nor gave a reason why it was patched.
So it could have been copyrights or content; or any other reason under the sun.
IMO, I don't think it was copyright, cause if it was, Forza and Turn 10 studios would be neck deep in paper work.
Example: ( There's like 7 copyrighted logos in this, no suits have visited my house yet)

As a family member to some Hell's Angels, I hope they know that 1% Diamond isn't a joke. Displaying that without earning it is punishable by death in any serious MC.
Reality check anyone?
It's a videogame.
I don't thing HA will track ip just to find out where that 19yo guy, who put a 1% diamond on an digital 512x512 pixels big emblem in an online game, lives and go kill him...
