If i where to donate, could I ask for a golden shotgun instead of golden uzis?

The uzi's are the only golden donated weapons you can get, there is no golden shotgun.

I know thats what I was asking, could i request a custom golden shotgun?

no, they'd have to code it in and it would add to the precache, which is already a problem on some maps.

oh, so I would probably have to make the skin myself

The only way you can have one is to use a reskinned shotgun. but no one else, that don't have the same skin, would be able to see it.

ok, Idc all i wahtn is a golden spas-12 shotgun

well, ill reskin the shotgun using paint but, how do i make the colour gold in paint?

I think you need a more advance picture editor then paint, one that can change the color of it.

ill do it for ya, got nothing better to do.

Gimp and XnView do a pretty good job at converting from and back to indexed modes so you can properly edit .bmp's. I like XnView because it opens really quick and can be used for quick hue/contrast/size changes. Gimp is good for "heavy" editing (similar to Photoshop) - but I usually don't save as indexed with Gimp - I think XnView does slightly better indexing.

BTW, both are free

A few minutes with the textures in XnView produces this...
(uhg, some purple in there... still needs some touching up)

Wow dude, all I can say is thanks! But I dled gimp before and the colours where the same as MSpaints.......gray or black I dunno why, I blame vista. I tried all colours when I open a bmp file like that to edit it and it well.....is gray or black?

It'll make it easier if you convert the textures from indexed (256 colors) to RGB mode - this will allow you to utilize any color of the rainbow instead of only what was saved in the indexed palette. Which, for these in particular, are mainly gray-scale. In Gimp, this is done in -->Image -->Mode -->RGB. Then you can go to -->Colors --> Colorize and mess with different hues and what-not.

You just need to remember to put it back to indexed before you save it.
Most of all: have fun with it!
