Texture battles haven't really taken off, to say the least. Maybe this will work:
Since TF2 requires a totally different style of texturing (oil painting-like), it might be nice to do a couple of battles with that style in mind, every texture needs to have a red and blue team variant. In the end you might have an interesting Interlopers TF2 texture pack..

I think its a pretty good idea, obviously needs some refinement for an actual battle though, like it cant be just any random TF2 styled texture. hope to see the next battles up soon =)

Yeah I too think that is a good idea =P It didnt kick of at all, so it could be rated disaster (battle 2).

Well TF2 is good idea. Keep em coming =)

I got to ask. You all said you wanted more, so is it the theme of the second tex battle that is not tempting, or were you all just saying it? I mean, do you want more? =P

make (or some equivalent), and you are astonished, then mortified, as you realize that the whole world is being
recompiled and relinked!

Well, making textures is not really my game (don't even have proper image editing software, unless you count gimp as proper). But when I saw the results of the last one, I thought TF2 might be a nice opportunity to try again.

gimp is as proper as any app. Yeah, well I hope the next one will draw people. Otherwise I see no wisdomm in making these battles. Since you guys wanted it, I did expect some entries =P But well, cant always expect that.

well I was half way finished with an entry for the last one but hadn't seen the comp in time so didn't have enough spare time, plus source SDK has died totally so I cant make any in-game images =/

How about a blood stained, rusted, decayed and rotting, evil looking texture battle?

TF2 textures make me yearn for Animal Crossing: Source.
i had fun once, and it was awful.
