Custom group images will likely never become a thing. It'd make sense to have them in a limited group environment, but when there's the possibity of 100+ groups - images aren't exactly something that's maintainable.
Then please make higher level to make groups, like very high (50 level) wouldn't that solve the problem temporarily
Considering not even staff are level 50 or even 40, that seems too much. Level 30 is already around 1000 posts and dozens of threads, which spans across activity of a few months - and even level 30 would be too much for just creating a group.
The point is that creating a group as easily and openly as possible is the aim of the group system - dedicated members who've reached level 10 may create their own groups as a sort of reward for their efforts, and can continue to easily maintain that group so long as they're active. The availability of making groups without charge and creation as many as people would like is one of the main draws of lewd.
Groups have many privileges - a custom color, a personal subforum, open and closed invites, and in the future, will have even more options, but customized userbar images just aren't planned at the moment.
