Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. None.

Describe the solution you'd like Today the emblems are locked inside the client assets file and we can't customize them.

Allow the server owners to add new Emblems by simply dropping new images to a specific folder in their server files.

The client will download these emblems, note that only the new emblems will be downloaded not the ones currently in the game, this minimizes the amount of data streamed.

Place these emblems on server specific folders in the Client as cache, so they are not downloaded twice, and can be cleared by the player if he wishes, check emblems corruption by downloading file hashs, so the corrupted files can be replaced.

Describe alternatives you've considered None.

Additional context None.

You'll have to be absolutely certain that pictures over a certain size (pixels and data) don't get sent to the client.
