So, who here has some custom tags already that they want to show off? :)
In case you don't know where to do that, check out our Tag Customizer Beta (http://betacustomizer.astrogaming.com)!

No custom tags for me yet ... would it be possible to take a .jpg of my '68 Camaro or maybe even a tasteful .jpg of Cindy Margolis and have that image transferred to a custom tag? What are the image limitations?

Yeah it seems possible. If you look at the BETA it says that it has to be 5MB or less. So as long as your in those boundaries you should be fine. I wanted to make some custom tags but I don't have any ideas. Anyone have any?

They look good ... when you setup the image, did it look that nice or did Astro tweak it to make it fill out on the tag correctly?

Now, I don't have my tags just yet, but I've just finished making some with the helpful template that Astro provided in the customizer. Photoshop can definitely work wonders! I need opinions on these before I decide to go through with the purchase. What do you guys think???

Yeah, the name is the title I've taken as a gamer, not any particular group. The origin of the title "Viewtivision" comes from a quote from a childhood cartoon. The symbol itself is a Japanese letter that was ironically similar to the looks of our English "V" and I thought it'd make a great symbol/logo. As for the colors, I've come up with a few variants and am working on some different backgrounds as well. I'll keep you updated. The pink isn't doing it for me. I'm going to try some reds/oranges this time around.

Alright, I've created another design which I am a bit more fond of. Although this design may be a tad simpler in terms of backgrounds, I believe it is better. I also am liking the colors a lot more than the previous tags as well.

The original background color is probably glossy. Your print is gonna have a matte feel, just feel the logo on the current tags.

You could probably quite easily (if you have the skills and trust yourself) go buy a can of clear coat and spray that over the tag and you will get a real glossy finish that I'm sure would give you the desired look.

Howdy Peeps,
I wanted to try and create some custom tags but I've read about using copyright material is a nono. I've drawn up one side so far and while it's based off Space Invader's character it's hand drawn. I wanted to show this piece in it's still w.i.p to firstly see whether this could still be produced even if it is originally based on a sprite.
Cheers.

Your own art should be fine from the copyright angle. To be honest, your own art looks pretty flippin' sweet and I think it'd be so much cooler than just the original space invader because you made it yourself!

Here are a few more tags which i'm pondering on using. The little miss trap will probably end up on the cutting floor but did it while pondering how i'm going to complete the invader tag.

Does anyone know if you get one of astros premade custom tags and just add text if it will be glossy. Specifically the one with the big astro a in the middle.

Good thing too, Being Jewish, if i saw a swastika on your astros at an MLG Event, i'd probably shake your hand.....then throw you in an oven..... But i assume you were just trying to be facetious, so all is peaceful!

I'm jewish, you're to kind if I saw someone with swastika tags I'd probably break their face and shove their tags up their....well you know where I'm going with this.

Photoshop is a program that lets you edit graphics/images, etc. The template file is a .psd which is openable in Photoshop.

how do i get the templates into the photoshop?
IF your asking "How do I get my pictures to open up in photoshop?" I just go to file<open and go and pick out a picture of whatever you want.
You have to save the pictures as a .JPEG or .JPG or something like that if you wana be able to make a custom tag.

Definately. One question though.. How long did it take to get the tags from the day you ordered them to the day you got them. I ordered mine last week on Saturday night and I havn't even gotten a shipping number :O They must be swamped or something, but ya I will definately post a couple pics of my new headset :D
Also the detail of the pic is much better, but since the size is way over the limit I guess the quality must have been reduced.

12-18-2009, 10:35 PM
I believe that they start doing all the shipping stuff on Mondays (Because you did the order on a Saturday). So, they may be backed up to the point where.. yeah.. I don't know, I don't speak for ASTRO so I don't know for sure but if you haven't received a tracking number (like me) just send in a support email like I did. It may be shipped just they were backed up enough to unfortunately forget to give a shipping number. Mine was shipped and I didn't have one until I asked about it.
So check that up with Support!

I am one of the designers at Astro, and I actually did this as a test, to see what the printers were capable of. I went thru the same Customizer as you guys do. I wanted to test how thin the lines could be and how it could replicate fine curves. As you can see, some of the finer details may not translate because the text i uploaded was too fine. Also, I wanted to see how the ink would lay on the polished plastic. There is a bit of banding as you can see, but overall, I think it turned out pretty good. To avoid this, be weary of using a solid black in the image.
As for techincal details, I did the design as a reverse-cut out so that the graphic is empty. Saved at as a .png to preserve the transparency. Uploaded it to the Customizer... and thas it!
ASTRO Warblade
12-29-2009, 05:19 PM
Yeah, it looks great. almost liked a "blacked out" brushed aluminum look. I may try something like this for one of my tags.
Hrm... so would a tag like this be possible to make currently? Or am I correct to assume that the polished tag was used as a test, and normally any part of the graphic that's uploaded that's transparent would still be "screened" in solid black (like a matte finish).

No, you can do it now. The polished tags are finish of the OEM Astro tags you get w. the headset. The printer lays ink on where ever there is color (as supplied by your image), regardless if its full black or full white (or any color). The way I made this was full black on the outside and left the design blank. When you save/upload it as a .png, you preserve the transparency, and thus the printer will print only the black area.

No, just keep the text (or whatever you want as gloss) as one color (use something obscure like lime green or magenta), then use the "Select Color" tool to select that same color. Delete, and it'll be transparent. (well, actually you'll need to paste over a new layer, and get rid of the background on the initial layer). In Photoshop, whatever shows as the grey and white checkerboard pattern will show as "pure black gloss" on the tag.
Definately going to try this one out.

That is definitely one way to do it, but there is an easier way that may lead to better results. It involves using masks on a color layer of the design you want. Maybe I will put together a short tutorial for you guys if interested (and when I have time away from doing projects ;))

Alrighty, here goes my first attempt at tag 1 of 3. =) This'll probably be my black tag (all areas that are white will actually be transparent and utilize the black glossy finish with transparency). Also used the "brushed aluminum" background that AJRogers sent me (changed the settings on that one to make it pretty dark, then just edited out the white for transparent gloss).
Inspired by d8168055. (Astro Bigboss). (oh, and I did end up using masking instead, as the background needed to be moved and adjusted to have the small 'astro' logo show up with a better background, thanks!)

Please do this, my custom tag designs are done but I remembered someone talking about getting creative with transparency to make the black be glossy. I have all my stuff in psd format and have been playing around but for the life of me I can not get this to work right. I have a blue camo background with safefy orange letters and design. I want to be able to make the black stroke of the text and the black outline of the crosshair be deleted in a clean fashion, what should I do to accomplish my goal here...? My super kewl graphic arts cousin is coming over tomorrow so I am going to pick her brain a bit but I figured I might as well ask here :)
EDIT:
Never mind I figured it out. I decided to only black out the cross(hair)'s borders since the text didn't look right with just taking the stroke out. DId not look clean enough for me. I kinda like just the cross(hair) sticking out :) Just think, I was using ms paint before I found out that I could make custom tags, I do with you guys would allow us to send you vector for them because then they would be super sharp :(

Got mine in the mail today, was surprised at how fast they shipped. I ordered them on Monday. I think that my idea of having the outline of the crosshair stay transparent worked exactly like I hoped and it looks great. But I think that I should not have done the same with the black outline of the letters... Also, I am not happy with how 2 of the tags are printed off center. This is not too much of a problem with the regular tag, but on the mic hole tag it kinda rubs me the wrong way because I spent a lot of time making these and learning everything along the way. I had to make the blue digital camo, I had to make the cross-hair by hand and then figure out how to do clipping masks. I used guides along with the template to be perfectly centered. That was a strong learning curve since the last time I did anything was with MSPaint... So I guess I'm asking... should I even bother getting another pair made or are they going to turn out the same way with the printing errors(color streaks, off center)?
Don't get me wrong, I think this is an awesome idea you guys got going here but I think I might have to wait till all the kinks are ironed out before I try to get a replacement pair. :(

I think Blaque's tags look great. I can't see any banding issues on them, so looks like you lucked out. The off center part on the mic tag kinda sucks, since I know you tried to get the hole right where the crosshair was (good design idea with that). It's just barely noticiable. Glad the transparency stuff worked out.

Starting from here ... now what!? Want to add something to the background a bit .. so its not tooooo white. But it may look okay with the all white frames.
ASTRO Warblade
01-28-2010, 03:14 PM
Love it Vymm. And I would agree it would look fine keeping with the white background. With a black background it wouldn't stand out as much.
Maybe as a variety, just adding some "concrete" type look to the background. Check Sandz tag on page 18 (top of this page) for an idea with some gritt.
Sandz do you make tags for people? id be willing to purchase some custom made ones by you or whoever did yours... if possible

It looks like he used a font called "Ethnocentric Bolt (http://new.myfonts.com/fonts/larabie/ethnocentric/ethnocentric/)". A great resource for those interested in fonts, font design, or just design in general, is http://www.whatthefont.com. You can upload pictures of fonts, and it'll use it's recognition software to help tell you want font was used.

Looks good, and I like the colors. I would have made the controller silhouette transparent and get that glossy black look. Maybe perhaps on the black outline of the lettering too.
What's interesting is that in the second picture, the columns look like their metal. Looks pretty neat like that actually. I wonder how hard it would be to replace parts with metal on the A40s...

Yep, too bad i learned about the transparent trick after i ordered my tags. I went back into the photoshop and tried it and easily got the controller knocked. I'll probably get some new tags later on.
I just noticed how it kinda looks like a black chrome. That would be very nice feature on the headset.
