| Where can I find small character graphics for my monitor bezel? |
| (1/1) |
| MikeW:
Hi all, Been lurking and learning for some time now. I started building a cabinet from scratch based on the Ultimate Arcade from the MAMEroom about a month ago. I am basically finished with it at this point but have one small issue. I built it to accomodate a 27" monitor but I am not sure if I want to limit myself to 640x480 so I am using a 21" XGA monitor for now with a Happ 19-20" bezel. This leaves an awful lot of black around the monitor and generally just does not look very good. I want to find some small graphics and characters that I can print out on my Epson photo printer and sandwich between the Happs bezel and the 1/4" polycarbonate that I cut to use as the glass overlay. There are lots of places with marquees and side art, which I already have, but I have not found any place that has some of the smaller characters like Pac Man etc.. Also, I am not very talented/creative when it comes to Photoshop or anything like that so I was hoping to find graphics that are ready to print and then cut out. Any ideas where I could go? |

BYOAC member Chris kindly put his great bezel artwork online here: http://mywebpages.comcast.net/celamantia/mamecab/bezel.htm. He has made the original artwork available to me, however since it's quite large, he has not linked it from his website. However, a polite IM on this forum was all it took for him to kindly reply with the link. Hope this helps, Paul |

Wow! What a great design for that unused space. Thanks for the reply! I actually wanted to put some of the more popular character graphics on the bezel rather than text, i.e. the Donkey Kong character, a small Pac Man dude, a fighting guy etc... Any other ideas? |

Like this guy: http://www.geocities.com/draftcardofwar/mame1.jpg This is almost exactly how my cabinet looks! Same side art and marquee as well (: Too funny!!!!! |
