The font on the middle one looks the best to me. I like the inner shadow. I'm not a big fan of textures applied to fonts my self.

Personally i would redo the clouds. get them better layered (if you know what i mean). Especially the cloud on the bottom right pops out to much.

Attached some files i created for you which you are free to use in any form or shape. I can also send you the psd so you can play around with it some more.

P.s. it's nice to have a marquee background that can't be traced back using google search, right?

Nice!

Thanks, bud.  I like what you did with the Earth too, gives it a little mysteriousness to it.  And I definitely like the clouds more the way you blurred them and lightened the opacity.

Ok, I have a lot done up to now. I officially have my software issues resolved... Had some problems with my version of Mame (Mame ++) working with GameEx but I found a good official build alternative and I am now using version .090, command line version.

I scrapped the idea of using the aluminum angle and bought some Happ marquee retainers that I will use instead. I felt that it would be easier to remove the marquee with a poly vinyl retainer rather than a metal one.

I will have some pics soon, the paint looks great, but it's not the smoothest.

Edit: Also, I went with a complete redesign for my marquee which is in my sig, the original design didn't grow on me too well, and I like the darkness of the new one.

MikeyMerse:
More Pics

MikeyMerse:
It's been awhile, but I wanted to give this thread some closure with final pics... well, 99% complete pics. We all know an arcade is never 100% complete.

Thank you all for watching, and helping!
