Help me choose a control panel design
« on: December 18, 2004, 03:25:01 pm »
I'm having trouble choosing the control panel design I want most, so I thought I'd ask the pros.  I made some previews of what I am thinking of using, and am posting them.  Any feedback is appreciated.

thanks,
spongebue

I personally wouldn't name my cab Mame or theme it Mame, but that just me....I think giving it a unique theme and name are much better, but If choosing from the 3 examples I'd go with #3  nice and simple and not to busy..............

I might consider a uniqe theme of some kind, but I don't want to make this too different from others... you know, Yet Another Black and Blue Cab  ;)

I agree with what you said about #3, though.  I'm leaning towards that.

3 is the best, but I'd only keep the upper left MAME logo.
