    I'm looking to get a decal made to put on the upper left area of my tailgate. Since I suck at drawing maybe some of you can help?

    I want it to say "Got PID?" and then have the reticle of an acog similar to this

    I've tossed around the idea of having a stick figure taliban holding an AK in it. Everything would be in black.

    I'm finally home. Had school. So I understand you want the reticle, and the text. But how do you want it placed? Could you maybe hand draw a picture? Otherwise I'm pissin in the wind, possibly making something nowhere near to what you envisioned.

    alright, here it is. And now you know why I need help drawing it up lol.

    Here it is with the taliban in it. I think I like it as long as he's distinguishable from the reticle.

    as far as font goes I found this one that I like. It's called gunplay, but I'm just looking for something close to it

    looks great! Is there a way you could make the lines of the reticle thicker so it would kind of match the font?
    And just change the red part to black, trying to keep it all one color.

    Haha, no. It's short for "positive identification" of enemy. Thats what we have to have shoot people.

    This is about as thick as I can make it without butchering it or making it look funny (and I am working with limited time at the moment)
