It started as a desktop so yes, I'll make a desktop. I'll do one with and without the teeth. When I started this it was just to experiment with the crest and different effects. I had it on a large black background and was starring at it. Gradually the "face" just appeared. (too much coffee I suspect) I thought, cool, that would make a nice calling card as in the way the ace of spades was used in RVN.
Maybe a business card.
Matt, everyone's opinion counts. You're making the effort. Everyone contributes in their own way.
Basenshukai, anything your team wants or needs just ask. If you want it specific to your ODA let me know.
Sacamuelas, that bottom pick IS evil. 
thanks all

Very nice!!
Noticed that the wallpaper doesn't seem to be like the others. Is it set up for download yet?

Negative. I would much prefer one of his & Mr. Reeves Yarborough's, given rather than bought.
As I have told Mr. Harsey I think just the eyes give the image a more Dark/Mysterious look where as the teeth make it too "cartoonish". Just my $.02.

The grinning crest is at www.curtharmon.com/wallpapers. I'm going to stick the original up there tonight also. Right click on the image and you'll get the 1024X768 version

I like the one with eyes only....
But, if TR wants fangs then here is one in which I tried to take some of the cartoon quality look away from Kyo's first draft.

Guess not, he just said negative and SMATCHET! in the same sentence. No hope. I'm going to go change his title to "SMATCHET! Hater" BTW - That's how I'm writing SMATCHET! now.

All have merit. I still like the eyes only best because it doesn't show any obvious attitude, leaves the viewer guessing what kind of mysterious menace is about to be unleashed on them.

Kyobanim,
Need one with a SMATCHET! Maybe one with the A/F Fighter. When you get bored again of course.

Outstanding job!
Really nice work. Kudos for pc graphics PT. The added grin took a lot of work/testing/refinement.
This place never ceases to amaze me with the varied talents displayed.

Kyo, that's some mighty fine photoshoping. Out of curiousity, how did you get the 'fire' effect within the eyes?
Thank you,
