American football patterns
To create new patterns, add images as shown below.

Helmets
At this time, it is easiest if helmets only show main colors. Currently, the main helmet color (indicated by the helmet parameter, matches the facemask color.

Jerseys
Jerseys are made up of two components: arms and body. Arms are a pair of images, in the form kit_leftarm_af_descriptor, where descriptor is something like "bluestripes," for example.

Body
Jersey bodies should remain simple.

Pants
Pants should also remain simple. There are some ideas at Template:Baseball uniform that may be useful, however (e.g., colored belts).

Generic patterns
There are many football (soccer) uniforms which may not be relevant to American football uniforms but which are helpful insofar as they show the many possibilities of this kind of stylization.
