Hi Team Liquid,

I think you guys are amazing, not just the progamers, also the mods, the community and everything around it. Therefore, I stealthily persuaded my roommates that don't know anything about starcraft or your existence to use your logo on our dining room table, here is the work in progress and the end result !

awesome job! Looks amazing :D what kind of paint have you used and what sort of finishing. I am currently working on a beer-pong table... and need to chose something that will withstand some hardship...

this one is actually pretty hard to answer because I don't really know the translations for our sorts of paint / finish, also we just used some cans of stuff my roommate had left, apparently its not even paint. Im gonna try my best to translate the dutch for you : for the blue colour we used extra-covering high glaze clear blue finish ( we didn't even apply a basecoat because we are university students and we didn't have any

). same story for the silver paint, except that sais side-glaze instead of high glaze. I think you shouldn't listen to me for any paint advice though.

Edit: Gl with your beer pong table !

Cool, how did you convince them of that?

It sounds like it is in fact paint. The typical English translation is "high-gloss" (very shiny) and I'm guessing "side-glaze" is "semi-gloss" (somewhat shiny). Looks great!

Basically my roommate was in a strange mood and he came up to me and said : Let's paint the table today ! (it had been in the wooden unfinished state for about 2 years now..) and I said fine, but we'll have to make something cool. then I suggested putting a logo on there and we couldn't really come up with something so I thought of this logo and said hey let's use this ! (showed him picture) and he thought it looked cool and halfway through the painting he was like, so what's the logo from. That's when I told him it's from a starcraft progaming team/community. he didn't mind at all though
