I've had 2 apps rejected for using the graphics from the GS GameCenter template. I even photoshopped out the GameCenter icon from the post scores box, and it was still rejected.

Funny thing is, I had two apps get approved with the exact same images :\

So just be careful.

    I think you have this coming. After telling so many people to search and stop creating new threads of the same subject. Here you go. I know it's not written exactly the same but was easy to find.

    I'm not mad at you just showing that it happens to the best of us. Peace!

    yes, but in that thread the general consensus was that the problem was they were using the gamecenter logo as part of a slide to turn on gamecenter function, and you getting rejected for using the box (which is what I did at first).

    they rejected the image for just using a box that said gamecenter, no logo at all:

    Well i cant say 1 post at the end of that thread about slide to activate is a concensus. Regardless, It sucks they got rejected. Was the other your astronaut game?

    I use the game center icon in my games on the main menu.. but just the icon, no post score or login buttons. I didn't use the icon from the templates because it's low res, I found a higher one and made it a button with and without it crossed out (for game center active vs. not active). I've had three games with this setup submitted, all accepted. Screen shot of how it's used below:

    Where did you find a High Res GC Icon? Found some low res ones, but they are ugly.

    I wonder what happens if you try to make a realistic poker game. :/

    Yes its only pro and its 1 of the 2 reason (some might add after later updates) why i'll go pro next month (tight budget). The other one is splash screen. :)

    Yes, this is the response that I got a while back from them. You can use the icon, but not anything that resembles GameCenter (such as the wood and green felt top, or the color and font type).
