So... I have created a custom civ. Created its own little home star system. I've even created the basics for the race. Now... how can I specify portraits for male/female? How can I create a new master name list for citizens, ships, etc.?
One way would be to read the pinned post at the top of this section that gives you the tools to do what you asked.

Be advised if you post your Civ to the workshop and use any graphics or artwork created and posted by other persons you must get permission from that creator before you post your mod.
There are no exceptions to this rule your mod will be pulled, and you can be suspended for 3 to 7 days, others have, and no one is immune from this rule.
Yeah, I used that to create the base of the species. It's still pretty basic despite being an amazing piece of work.
What I am trying to figure out is how to make the pictures match the sex as it does with Humans and other obviously bisexual species. Also, how to create a new species-specific names list. I have yet to find the base game XML that has the names lists in them to start with (there are a lot of XMLs and they're all over the place).
As far as artwork, I am actually considering commissioning some just for this... which is a really cool but dumb idea. Otherwise, purely open-source and/or free-use license images.
