Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So now that I understand how to implement the graphics for our L4D2 server, I need graphics.

What we need:

One banner style graphic. Dimensions w:605 h:121. I would like "Strength in Numbers" to be the focus, with our url to be displayed as well. It doesn't need images or background really, just some sweet looking text with that info. But if you manage to work in a sweet background and still make "Strength in Numbers" and "clanofsin.com" the focus, great.
***L4D2 is broken in the fact that host banners are cut off at the bottom with a black line. So keep that in mind with your design. You have to go black at the bottom to make it look good.

One motd image. Dimensions w:1076 h:538. I'd like this to be a left for dead 2 themed thing. Leaving a blank area in one of the corners to put a list of our rules and what not kind of message. Go crazy! Get the goriest image of the game you can and make it sweet.


Somebody has to want to do this, right? If not we'll have to use the ugly ones I throw together in 5 mins Smiley

I'll take a swing at this... We also need an avatar sized banner for the steam group.

For my information, what are the rules and what not?

Ohhhh, I like those. Can you do a version with maroon instead of green? The maroon on our site here. See how that looks. Those look great but we generally use the same colors in all our stuff.

Those are really great though.
