We need a new, more original avatar for our Steam group.
If you haven't looked in a while, check it out.
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/critsandvichnetwork

If you can draw, are good at editing other people's work, or have a basic understanding of Photoshop, why not give it try?

Post your submissions here. If we get a bunch we'll vote for the best. The winner will get special compensation from me. Those with sick minds, post a vulgar response... I dare you! :mrgreen:

Anyway.

Try to keep it 256x256
We are critsandvich
If you can fit critsandvich.com in the picture, cool. If not that's OK too.
The TF2 style is very important.
You have until March 1st.

Nope it was an example of what I had in mind. If you wanted a better version I was going to do it

Just something I drew up. My idea would be digital, and more clean cut. I figured a white background with some gray faded around the letters. I haven't decided on the N type, but I am thinking a bite mark needs to be out of the side w/ crumbs laying around it. We could put it on a basic plate, but that (imo) might make it too busy. I'd make the letters a basic blue w/ a metallic finish, and the olive would look just bad ass there.


The "n's" are some ideas of how the bite would look

Can we get some crit effects added to either of the sandvich options. Like Fingerman has for the spawn sandvich.

I personally like Termz Sandvich better but Cant Speall's background. I'm not going to attempt because I don't think I could offer anything beyond that.

Oh yeah, and I found this on deviant art. It's called "Vintage Sandvich."
