GIVE me ideas dudes.

[SNAAAKE]

Give me ideas please .
I have no idea what I can do with this .

OKAY...another dumb kinkos story.
I go to kinkos to print my marque and overlay.
I was workin on a big big file.

the actual size of the overlay was supposed to be 30x15.
and the marque was supposed to be 24x11.

NOW,kinkos printed 112"x54" of the overlay on vinyal which cost $325.

and they printed marque 55x25 on matt paper paper which cost $100.Now i did tell the guy to resize the images and they didnt do it so not my fault.However i offered $20 the big 55x25 file and he gave it to  me..

NOW you guys tell me what can i possibly do with a 55x112 print on vinyal .My room wont fit the thing as its little too big.I am thinking about offering $50 for that because they are goin to throw it away anyways.
ANY IDEAS ANYONE .

Anyone interested on the print?I cant upload and real picture as my camera is totally messed up . but I am about to get a serial to usb cable which should fix the camera picture then i can upload pic..

IDEAS ?

Wellll.. depending on the size of your cab and the artwork that was printed, you could possibly use it as side art, with some spray adhesive on the back

Otherwise, jeez, that's freakin huge

Snaaake'
If I remember correctlly wasn't your control panel overlay a collage of capcom or marvel characters? If it was and you can still get it for $50.00 then why not remove your coin door from the cabinet and cover the whole front panel of your cabinet with the overlay, trim off the excess all the way around, cut out the hole for your coin door, put the coin door back in and call it cool as hell.  If you built your control panel  like most mame cabinet projects then it probably protrudes outwards in the front right? If so you could even mount maybe a colored neon tube underneath your control panel so that it kind of lights up the overlay on the front of your cabinet.
Just an idea. I'd hate to see it go to waste.
S.M.

Yes..that was mine..but thats the marque.

SEE..this is why this place kicks serious gaming --I'm attempting to get by the auto-censor and should be beaten after I re-read the rules--...

holy..lord..great idea..i am goin down there tomorrow..to pick it up.But I got this other one from marque thats 24x54 which can be used in my coin door place already and what else can i do with the rest(the huge one).Man I wish I had an arcade right in my house so I could hang that thing over here.ANY OTHER IDEAS people?

here is the actual image that was printed on 112x54.

Heres a simple solution to your problem-

Build an arcade in your house, then you'd have a place to hang it.

Hey, that's my dream room.  .  But I'd have a couple of driving games hooked up for head to head play and a couple of pinball machines, ooh and a air hockey table.

Ahh, yes, my dream room too.  And don't forget a foosball table.  A TV over the bar would be nice, but not as important as the stuff you guys named.

[SNAAAKE]

dont forget a console rig too..where you can play some nfl 2k3 and stuff...couch....a big screen flat screen tv(wega) a pizza bar....okay getting too caried away : .
