Hello everyone!

I've been experimenting with in-game and between game overlays for my personal stream and I found it to be so much fun and such a great creative outlet that I have decided to start making them for anyone in the community that would like one!

That's right I'm tossing my hat in the ring!

There are a few things that I will say right off the bat: I am NOT an artist, I have a decent level of spacial awareness, enough to make these but I am not a graphic designer, I do this for fun, and to help others in the community.

I work a full-time job during the week, so I will get to everyone's requests on a first come first serve basis.

And finally I will be conducting all "order's and requests through PM and/or skype. I will try to get as much detail as you can give me about what you want or as little as you have and try to come up with something that fits for you and that you won't be ashamed to stream with

Quality and customization are my main goals here, I just want you to be happy with what you're getting and that means that the time it takes to finish may be a bit...protracted but I think I can manage at least 5 a week, it only took me a few hours to make both of my overlays for in-game and between-game.

So! That all being said and all things being considered here are some examples of my work, I hope you like them;

you can't get mad at basketball cause you think kobe bryant is a horrible person. you don't see basketball forums with "kobe bryant is killing basketball!". it doesn't work like that, how the SC2 community made that connection is beyond me. ~Yoduh

Always good to see people offering help for free. If this really intrigues you here is some advice

I'd suggest spending some time learning how to use Photoshop if this type of concept really intrigues you. It's fairly in-expensive to pick up (i want to say between 99 and 199 depending on the verson). I've never taken a graphic design class in my life but over some odd years have become quite proficient with it.

Here's a link to a popular and entertaining tutorial series that's actually pretty good: http://www.youtube.com/show?p=6OvxlAUP04A&tracker=show_av

Fixed the issue where they could not be seen, also added an overlay that I just completed.

Definitely a plus for the community having a individual take time out of their day to assist individuals with overlays. Very communicative individual when it comes to the work he's doing. Keep up the good work.

These look amazing! Have you done any custom "protoss themed" UIs? I find the standard one a bit boring.

Do you mean like editing the actual protoss UI? because if so no I haven't but I'm always willing to try new things :D

Have any ideas?

This guy is absolutley amazing for an amateur. Super nice guy, incredible work. Why haven't more people asked for overlays yet?!?
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Also, why you create overlay for top-left menu? It can be turned off in game options :|

It would be great if you could create some kind of guide.
All good things must come to an end. Therefore, SC2 will last forever
