K-Aus Weapon Systems is doing some Outsourcing for its "K-Aus Crosshair Pack"

We are looking for more crosshairs to be implemented in the next version.

Requirements:64x64 pixels in size
Submissions are to be in one of the following formats:
- TGA(Truevision Targa): With an Alpha mask
- GIF with Transparency(will be converted before being imported)
- PNG With either Transparency or Alpha mask
- BMP with one color to be replaced with transparency(list which color is to be removed)

Animated submissions are allowed, but can not be pre-animated(ex: animated Gif)
UnrealEd does not support gif animation. For UEd to animate, it must connect multiple textures together
An animated Gif as a preview of the total images is allowed

Submissions can be Solid white, Black/White mix or White mixed with other colors(ie. White/Blue, White/Green, White/Green/Red/Yellow)

Submissions can be of any style, but should not be overly complex(if you don't want to use it, chances are noone else would either)
You must name your submission as well(nothing vulgar or profane. Any submission that is vulgar or profane will not be used)

Authors of submissions used will be credited in the Readme and in the next release thread

ooo and make sure no one makes a dark crosshair cuz then it's gonna be impossible to use and light might be hard in some levels as well so something in the middle?

You can take a look at some of the preview pic in the thread linked above to see what I've done.
I'm just looking to expand a bit and see what others would want to play with

Actually, the work very nicely ingame.
A few look big, but since 6.04, they've gotten quite an overhaul
I'm gonna have to post a new pic when the next version is released

Also, the "Dot" xhairs need to be scaled down(to like 0.2)
For some reason, they scale down better than they scale up

ooo are you able to change their colors too?

Yep, but only the white parts. Black stays black.
It was how I wanted to design them(was sick of losing my xhair no matter the color back in 2k3)
