Bunch of uninspiring Pi bartops, 4-player control panels in abundance w/ angled joysticks, and console game art themes. It's been pretty lame around here. Not much originality anymore.

The shelf paper had a certain charm that is lacking in the tinker toy bartop kits, IMO.

Anyway, be the cabinet change you want to see in the forum, bros.

Are we talking missioncontrol or ark?  Cause every time ark makes a post I point my remote at the screen, but I still hear his voice in my head.  :D

Well if you have a SB1120 then you need to change your batteries. 

Crap, you really are a follower of my posts. My posts are like a tiny cut on the roof of your mouth, no matter how hard you try to ignore, you have to tongue it.  Hope you are not like Haze and got me on a RSS feed.  I am not surprised, followers of exceptionally intelligent and objective communicators, are like moths to the light.  I can only supply the cliff edge though.  Fortunately there are not many like me around, even though there are plenty of imitations. If you are hearing my deep baritone voice in your head, put some Barry White on and enjoy it while it lasts. :lol

Yeah I thought Saint banned him/her for being a dork years ago.  I guess even the internet has a statue of limitations.

I was talking about MC -- he's as likely to be muted as he is likely to be banned.

Anybody else notice that ark is beginning to show signs of spiraling into the gray_area?

Feeling left out?  Just quote me a few times and you will feel better.  I'm sure there are still some real zingers you can add to your database.  Go on live a little.  ;D

many many moons ago I had begun the creation of Old Skool, a bright yellow cabinet that should be half assed documented in one of the sub-forums (I thought there was a project sub-forum, but i don't see it).  Overtime the cabinet was plagued with bees, wasps, and weather. Now that I'm de-cluttering it has been disassembled and placed in the county landfill.


EDIT: project thread found....
