--- Quote ---Wow that button looks cool. --- End quote --- Thanks in large part to you. :) Santoro rocks! These buttons look fantastic in person. I'm so eager to see them all lit up it's taking first priority on the construction front. |

--- Quote from: Aceldamor on April 27, 2004, 03:23:19 am ---....have you decided what your going to do with the "Command Bar" yet? or which buttons to use? --- End quote --- Yes. It will have buttons for the various Emulaxian navigation options, most of which will toggle between 2 settings: 3D Arcade View > List View (toggles btwn) 3D Mobile View > 3D Stationary View (toggles btwn) Pick Game List View favorite games > View all games (toggles btwn) Game info/history etc It will also have buttons to switch immediately to a list of games for a particular emulator. So: Atari 2600 Atari 5200 (?) ColecoVision Vectrex (?) SNES Genesis Nintendo64 MAME All of the buttons will have corresponding themed artwork printed on acetate (or mylar if I can afford it) and a consistent use of custom themed icons. The emulator direct select buttons will arch across the panel in a semi circle and the Emulaxian navigation buttons will flank them on either side. 3 blue cold cathode tubes will be recessed to protrude slightly from the plexi on each side to correspond with the "wing badge" 'semi-art-deco style' graphics (see CP graphics earlier in post) The PC Tach with its beautiful chrome bezel will go top center above the arched buttons. The plexi protecting the art will be recessed into the wood and bullnosed so that the beveled edge extends just above the wood surface. |

I can't wait to see this thing, Pixel. Your ideas are going to make this even more impressive than the renderings already are. I love the idea of having the emulator buttons, and I think that will be a very convenient and cool-looking feature. |
