Yes but look at your great logo and hopefully you will think the same about mine. There are talented artists out there and I am sure for some small "cash considerations" there would be someone willing to do the job in a reasonable style. The BBs shouldn't have to pay them by the hour, just do something like a competition with the winner getting lifetime supporter, the ability to rename a draft pick and $200 cash. Not really a huge cost in the grand scheme of things.

also having jerseys will most likely our job, to make a jersey what look good on the side then different way. But it isn't that easy to create a possibility to make the artwork or make it easy that the player stay in the Borders of a jersey(logo and Banner are luckily in an box shape)

I have nothing better than Paint to create artwork so it isn't me but I have sen the amazing artowrk fans/players have made for teams in NBA Live and that would be much harder than what is needed here. It isn't a skin to go on a 3D model, just a flat 2D representation of what the jerser would look like to be displayed somewhere on the team's front page perhaps underneath the spot where their country rank goes.

Why not even just provide another blank spot for supporters to fill called the team jersey and provide some basic models as I have seen with some games (base color, stripes, crosses, a hundred or so basic geometric and animal shapes that can also be colored and superimposed) but also the ability to import any picture like with the banner and logo for those that are more talented.

I know that it probarly is said for a hundred times but I think it is just stupid to make the designing of a team jersey a supporter-featured. If it is not a supporter-featured it would make this game much more popular. I don't know if anybody here knows the game hattrick. It's the same as BB but with soccer. In that game you can make your own team jersey but you've got to pay for it and that is one of the three reasons i quitted with that game. I think that if they don't make it a supporter-featurred more people will be a supporter to try the other stuff.

Maybe it did make you quit that game but you have to think of the economics. If 10 free players quit the game because of that supporter feature and 1 free player became a supporter because of that feature then the game is probably more profitable overall anyway.

I like the basic principle here that free and supporter players are exactly equal on the court and supporters get not even a tiny advantage in terms of winning or losing (unlike some games where you can't win if you don't pay) but that supporters get a lot more asthetic features that make the game more enjoyable.

It is funny, perhaps it is a cultural thing. In the Australian top league the ABBL 11 of the 16 teams are supporters, as well as most of division II. I was looking at the Taiwan top division for some graphics to decorate my Buzzerbeater Wiki and even though it is a similar sized country (650 in Oz, 450 in Taiwan) and fairly affluent there was a total of 1 supporter in their top league and I think only 1 or 2 more in all of second division.

GDP is definitely no cultural thing.

Well Australia is 13th in GDP and Taiwan is 24th according to the IMF so it isn't a massive difference. 25 is Norway and 26 is Austria - I am sure you consider that a nice place to live.

PS: If instead of GDP you want GDP per-capita then Australia moves up to number 10, Austria moves up to number 11 but Taiwan also moves up to number 20, just above UK 21, Finalnd 22, France 23 and Japan 24.

I don't think it is GDP, I think it is a cultural thing.
