I can't wait to spray my pr0n and hentai all across the ready room. And then use my pro alien sprays to confused marines. And finally the animated marine sprays with muzzleflash to ward off skulks.
Customization is cool, like armor emblems and stuff. But spraying images in the game world usually benefits no one. So it'd probably not be worth the time spent implementing it.
And it'd require decals, which isn't in the engine yet.

If I remember correctly the current infestation model is indeed a decal, and adapting that to work for sprays probably wouldn't be too difficult. Regardless, this <i>isn't</i> something that should be done. Sprays, in my experience, are the things that turn from respectable gimmick to hilarious griefing engine the fastest, and for every one instance where they're used at least semi-respectably, there are another fifty where they're used for griefing and porn. And nothing ruins atmosphere faster than 16 guys spraying whatever they want on every surface; except maybe neon-pink marines, but at least that's client-side, so the other people in the match don't have to deal with it.

Yea that's just what NS2 needs, more pictures of <u><b>GIANT PENISES EVERYWHERE</b></u>
Yes i agree sprays produce a problem when they are used in negative ways, but good admins can take care of that. If you want to nit-pick at it, you should also nit-pick at text and voice chat because people can say rude/gross things on that too.
How about some prefab sprays then and allow no customization at all.

Newsflash: If it was this easy to stop pictures of giant penises being sprayed on a server, then there wouldn't be people in this forum complaining that thats what would happen. Go play counterstrike for 10 minutes and you will probably see 100 penises. (Ok, maybe not 100...but like 99...)
And no this is not the same as text and voice chat, I can't even understand why you'd compare the two.
