javeryh's Small-ish Bartop ["Jack Attack!"]
yamatetsu:
Lining up the art with the border shouldn't be too hard. Have the artist do a small border that is just slightly larger than the board, when applying the artwork fold or bend the artwork around the edges, aligning the straight lines of the larger border with the edges. Clamp one half of the artwork down, apply the other half. Unclamp, apply the rest.

Good idea. I'm going to ask for it both ways and print a few test pieces and then make the final call before I order from GameonGrafix.
I think I'm settled on:
1. High contrast on the robot (to make him pop out of the background more)
2. Leave the "2007" on the robot
3. Using the more reflective (greener) version
I'm going to respond to the artist. I'm still blown away by how good this looks. :cheers:

It's decided. I like the white border.
The artist is finishing up the control panel overlay so we are super close to completed artwork! :cheers:

That looks freakin' nice. You like that white border as much as I dislike it. ;D

With the shading, the depth perception of the UFO in front of the white line isn't as bad. The artist did a great job.
