Hello everybody!

Recently I have been thinking that it would be a good idea if I made some ASF patches. On a few of the other forums that I am on have started doing this and I think it is a good idea to kind of spread the word of ASF. Last night I did a quick sketch up of what I thought they might be able to look like. Before you respond saying that it looks bad, please take notice that this is my first time ever with photoshop. Now, I wasn't able to add this in the picture, but I was going to add the words Airsoft Sniper Forum around the outside of the crosshair equidistant apart. Also, the color to the left of the image is the color I was thinking about, but that could change at any moment. Pleas post your comments on what you think it should look like, if we should even have one, or any other changes that you would like to see made. Also, I would like to know the backing type you guys would prefer (velcro, sew-on, etc.)

Here is the pic:

I don't really care how this goes either way, because I've got way more patches than I know what to do with (real military and airsoft), but I would recommend using iron on backing. IMO, this is the best option because it doesn't force any once to use any other means to secure the patch, and if you decide to, if you gives you a bit of extra reinforcement.

Most of my airsoft patches are iron on, but I use velcro. So, once the velcro in sewn on (not adhesive backing), I also use an iron to heat the backing on the patch to not only apply the patch to the velcro via sewing but also via heating the adhesive backing.
