It should point to the relative path of your vtf file (starting from the csgomaterials folder). Check out the vpk files with GCFscape and have a look at how it's set up. Here's an example of one of the stock stickers:

Stickers? On a gun? What?

And I thought weapon finishes were silly enough...

Stickers! On a gun! What!

It's kind of fascinating how Valve is successfully turning everyone into kids again who love collecting things that have no real value, and are willing to go to great lengths to get rare items. Reminds me of pogs and shit.

I once had slammer that looked like a buzz-saw. I LOVED THAT SLAMMER.

I made another one I don't know if i want to release it, was just kind of experimenting with color and stuff. I still need to fix some things on it though:

Its the molecular structure of Gun powder.

Ahh..Chemistry

The cyan color feels a bit out of place imho, maybe another dimmer color would fit more with the weapon background. Just a thought

Good luck

The text is too hard to read. Scale it up!

Here is my first entry, maybe not the last one. Workshop

@ Squad - you asked how to show the wear on the other thread, here you go.

Maybe you should add more contrast, and scale up the text. Another thing you could do is to add a geometric shape as a background, it can be a hexagonal shape for example.

I like the holographic effect! How did you create that .gif?
