It costs about $9/ea + S&H to make them so I was thinking about selling them for $15/ea. What do you guys think? Edit: Pics!

That way there's no confusion with the original ones.

I was going to use the V4 4500 face, but I didn't think there would be much interst in it... I take it that there is? EDIT: Added the first pic, becuase I accidently put it on my desktop

I tried to use that one but it cuts off the tag which sucks. That's why some of the mousepads are only part of the picture because it cuts off most of the text and than with only part of the text it looks retarded. Makes me sad beucase I really wanted to to that V6K one becuase I too thought it would look badass.

I haven't added any older things beucase these are the only backgrounds that looked good on the pads. If you want to submit any pictures to me to play with to get on there just stick some in theis thread and I'll see what I can do. I'm going to add that V4 4500 on a little later on, the wife wants to go to wal-mart and I'm getting dragged with Roll Eyes

That top one was made with a filter in photoshop... I love that filter it makes badass pictures!

Talking about photoshop, I made a 3Dfx hat a little while back and was just going to make another in a few minutes. I think I might end up "mass"-producing these also. I'm like getting hardcore into recreating 3Dfx things lately. Peobably becuase I've been staring at my heatsinkless V5 5500 on my desk for a few weeks now waiting to find supercheap sutable heatsinks for it pending it's re-install back into my system Grin

But here is a pic I just edited in photoshop for the occasion:

It's a smal-res pic to fit on a hat, but i'm thinking about doing it hi-res for a background, anyone interested?
