Hey, friends.
So I've had a fair amount of off-time this summer, and I'd like to give back a bit to the community by doing some stuff I'm pretty good at. If you stream and would like some nicer stream graphics, I'd love to make anyone on the TF.TV streamer list some quality avatars, brb screens, various splash screens, overlays, panel headers, etc.
Some examples of what I've done (excuse the garbagecan bitrate):

the tftv banner, bottlecrew logo, and my "logo" weren't made by me. everything else was.
Also if you're doing an interview-type thing, I can do graphics for that.

I'm looking to do this sort of thing freelance eventually, and I'd love to get some practice while helping out this awesome community. So yeah, if you want anything (or even if you have some questions about OBS or whatever), respond to this thread or pm me on tftv/ steam.

In my opinion, if you can make the TF2 fonts work well and keep to the theme of the game, you can make some really good graphics, but from my time with websites for the game and other media revolving around it, the fonts are quite hideous and almost never work - as well as subtracting a professional look away from it.
Sans based fonts are often extremely good for graphics like this.
00:10 Was really well done, you managed to pull that off quite well.
Just my two cents.

I quite enjoy the TF2 fonts so long as they aren't used right next to other fonts. That's just my preference, though. I'd use whatever people like for theirs.

I'd love it if you'd be willing to make some cool brb/end of stream screens for me! I was really amazed at the transparent text over the smoothed demo, how did you create that?

On the technical side, it's essentially just sfm camera rigging and a text overlay. From an artistic side, it's a lot of figuring, guesswork, and rendering. I'd be happy to make you something. PM me any specifics. (Maps/fonts you like, what you want stuff to say, etc.)
