- Fantasy Franchise -

[Voorhess73]

Hi all...

I've created a fantasy hockey team called "ледяная бригада МОСКВА" or "Ice Brigade Moscow", if I'm not mistaken.

All 29 skaters are completely made up and I've spent several hours picking up common first names and real family names from genealogy russian sites around the net to make it more "believable".

Now I've decided to take a step up - at least for me, and create a custom home, away and maybe even a 3rd jersey for my franchise. The guys have been playing hard, struggling a bit against Detroit and New Jersey and I guess that my job as general manager and coach is to as least provide them a new set of jerseys. Ha ha ha... I need a raise.

I have no knowledge in doing that and no previous experience working with Photoshop, gfxpak, Fshed, biggui or EA Graph Editor. So, I tried to create at least one jersey using a CypherTemp template. (Thanks to Decypher for making my work a lot easier).

It would be more than appreciated if all you guys could take a close, long look at the first version of the jersey. I'm entirely aware of the basic look it has. It's all grey and nothing more... It needs two or three stripes at least.

However, in an "noteworthy" attempt to make it similar to the jerseys from Superleague and Highleague in Russia, I've added 3 logos from russian companies (Gazprom; Baltika and Aeroflot) and also the logo from Lutch - a company that makes hockey jerseys in Russia. The symbol in front was created using the National Emblem of Russian Federation (The golden double-headed eagle), inside a black circle, with the team name written along. Also, I'll consider having the Ice-hockey Federation of Russia emblem on the shoulders, on the pants or both.

Well, in addition to your opinions, suggestions and maybe complaints I'd like to see a screenshot or two from the jersey (back and front) in action. I'm at work and I can not add it to the game right now. From what I remember when playing the game I guess I've made a little mistake by placing the Gazprom logo too low. I think it will not be possible to see the numbers.

Ok, ok... That's enough.

Again, I'd like to tell you guys that all comments will be welcome and I'd like to thanks you all in advance. Hope some russian fellows players also come here in the forums and see the jersey too.
