Community Spray Contest
Edit: This contest has ended.
Hello everyone, we're very excited to announce our first Zombie Panic! Source Community Spray Contest in collaboration with GameBanana - one of the biggest PC modding communities!

It's been a long time since our last community contest, which was a mapping contest hosted by the formers ZPS Developers. We've been discussing internally how we could bring those contests back, and we decided to start smaller with community sprays. It's something that many people from the community will be able to participate in - if you can draw or make an image, then you can enter!
With this contest we're selecting the best ZPS themed sprays to become official content, which means they'll be available to players and developers of ZPS to use in-game. The top 3 winners will also be awarded some additional prizes! If you're interested in entering, please make sure that you review all of the information below or your submission may be invalid!
The winning sprays will become the property of both Monochrome, Inc and the Zombie Panic! Development Team - By entering, if you win you agree to authorize us the exclusive, indefinite right to use the image in any manner we see fit. The rights to entries not deemed as winning shall be retained by their original owners.
The spray must be: Provided in either BMP, DDS, GIF, JPG, JPEG, PNG, TGA, or VMT + VTF format.
