I need some huds made for some weapons using conjured entertainments cash system. I don't specifically need them made for me just need to know how.

How to make HUDs? Use one of the many image editing packages out there (Paint.NET and Gimp being the 2 most popular). Draw the image you want, save it as a DDS (direct draw surface) file, and call it in the HUD script.

That's a generalization and simplification of the entire process. What exactly do you need help with? Which step?

If the program you use can't save "DDS" format, then save it as "PNG". There also is a convert program that will convert just about any format to DDS. It's not really necessary as FPSC editor will convert PNG. Stay away from JPG. If you need the memory then you might want to have all images in the DDS format.
