somunny:
Really sharp. 

Knievel:
Wow what great compliments, good to be back on this board.
I'll pass along the Devils comment to my buddy, he'll love that.

Did a Mamewah skin around that same background image. Used the Slicker font to get that GameLauncher look. Here's a preview...



More to come...

GGKoul:
Great job.... what type joysticks are you using?

Knievel:
GG the sticks are the Omni-Stik Basic from http://groovygamegear.com/
A little more work to mount than the usual joystick but the results are worth it. I beveled the plexi around the stick and trackball holes to finish them off.

Here's a pre-overlay shot of the CP...




I set up a test panel with 4 different joysticks and everyone who's tried it has chose the Omni-Stik. The control in the Pacman games is amazing with the 4-way, the short throw makes for positive, fast turning.

We thought about going with the 4/8 way switchable style but decided the dedicated 4-way up top was best. Really happy with the control layout, everything is very comfortable to use.
