what material is that printed on?

Its printed on vinyl..just in case you didnt see my first panel.I thought the most expensive paper you get the better it is so i printed my first panel overlay on photo paper and HOT DAMN..scratchs everywere..

NOW,the cheapest my local kinkos have is vinyl so I gave it a shot and result is great.it also takes care of jaggy and pixled out things. :)
i printed this second overlay on regular paper in my printer and it came out all jaggy but vinyl blurs things out. :o

My suggestion to anyone printing...go VINYL ::)...its only $7 squre feet(my local kinkos charges that) and very good material for us mamers and BOYACers.

SNAAAKE :  it looks awesome!  Really colorful and eye-catching.  the black buttons really make it.  Funny about the vinyl at kinkos - i had to print some HUGE banners for work(like 3ft x 15ft) and the best material ended up being the cheapest - vinyl.  right on.  good work with the mamecast.

thanks Frostillicus !  :),

This local kinkos is funny as hell by the way.they printed my the overlay 112"x54" first time around because I was working on a big file...how weird is that :P.
That cost $320...but thats life...live & learn(The dude down there probley got fired because he just wasted something that cost only $320$ :o)

The vinyal story is kindy funny too.Ended up being the best/cheapest material for us Mamers.

Hey Snake.  That's beautiful artwork.  I'm currently building my first cabinet, and as of right now it is completely painted black.  Is it possible you could send me a high quality image of the marquee and control panel and what other things you have?  No one's posted in a while and you didn't put it on your website yet so I was just wondering.  You can e-mail me at dlindholATtvswDOTorg if you don't want to post.

Or just post.

Thanks a ton!

The pictures are beautiful.  My e-mail is dlindhol@tvsw.org

I didn't post my e-mail exactly because I end up getting a bunch of spam and that's my primary e-mail, but it's no big deal really.  I love your artwork and I couldn't ever do anything nearly as well.  Do you use Photoshop?  Do you have a new Mamecast model?

I'm looking for pretty much everything to make my cabinet look snazzy.  The marquee, control deck, some type of decals for the sides... yeah, it all.

Are there any sites with artwork nearly as good as you made that are made for cabinets?

Thanks,
Dan
