    Crosshair_(t/b/l/r)!?!

    ok, so i've been fooling around with some different crosshair designs, but i have a question. Where are the images used for the top, left, bottom, and right parts of your crosshair centered around? I think they may be simply limited by the axis of the screen. So if you have a image for the top of your crosshair, you would base the bottom of your image as the center horizontal axis and if you had a image for the left side of your image, the right half of your image would meet with the center vertical axis.
    Can anyone concur with these assumptions? If this is true, is there no way to overlap and image over the vertical axis and have it move from the right half to the left half?

    Just curious...

    ... Question: Are you talking about recoil? If so... READ THE STICKIES

    And yes, recoil does what you're asking. It will overlap if your center crosshair is big enough.

    Other than that, your post is confusing.

    yeah I mean recoil.
    sorry i forgot the proper termonology...
    anyways, there is absolutely no statements about how the images for the recoil parts work, it just says that they change their position depending on the predicted spread of a weapon.
    My question is if the center of your screen is divided into four quadrants like this:
    HTML Code:
          |         
     II   |   I     
    ------+-------
     III  |  IV     
          |          
    
    and lets say you want a recoil part on top of your xhair.
    If you wanted your recoiling part to be 10 pixels above the center of your crosshair, would you make the image itself like 20 by 20 and then place the image for the recoiling top part 10 pixels above the bottom? Or would the center of your recoiling image be the center of the screen/x-hair too?

    And that's why i was asking whether you could make, let's say a {relatively} tall recoiling image that would cross both I and IV or II and III. It may sound pointless, but it could result in some cool xhairs if you could overlap.


    %EDIT%
    Oh and this was the crosshair i was designing... but the image became completely distorted when i tried to make the individual lines(for instance on the aimed version the orange L's would be the top and bottom recoil units and the red would be the left and right recoil units) recoil.
    Unaimed(this looks better when you right click and "view image"):
