Creating a Spray Logo for CS source

With the release of CS Source, Valve has made it much easier for you to create spray logos. Valve realized how popular spray logos were and the extent people were going though to make them that they've created an import utility built right into CS Source. Even animated sprays are possible with the wonders of the Source engine.

Below is an image we're starting off with.

Copy the image to your C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\\counter-strike source directory so you can easily access the image from within CS. Next, launch CS Source, then click options. Select the Multiplayer tab if it isn't selected already and then select Import Spray. You should see the image you copied over to your CS Source directory earlier. Select it then select Open.

The image should now be imported and visible on the preview window.

The nice feature about this import utility is you can add as many spray logos and they will appear on the drop-down menu for use later on. Here is what our final spray looks like in-game.

Cool huh? Thats about all there is to creating spray logos. Once you get the hang of creating them you'll probably want to customize them futher by adding animation and transparency amongst other things. Hope this helps you make spray logos with easy.
