Hi yall. I'll rebuilding my control panel for a street fighter layout. I also need some marquee ideas. I need some help with a design for it. I don't know what i want, though. all i know is what i DON'T want...
I don't want fighting game characters (since most games aren't fighting games) even though they look really cool. I also don't want a classic theme cuz I don't want to pigeon hole myself into one game.
The colors on my machine are black, blue, and red (and white.) The machine is painted black with red t-molding, coin door, and speaker grill. The sideart is traditional (big) MAME logo artwork. I haven't desided what color of buttons and joys to use, but it will be either red or blue.
Also, I don't have a name for this machine. I'm not sure I should even bother. Unless I can come up with a really good one I don't see the point.
Any suggestion???
The control panel is only 6"X24". It's from a Bad Dudes machine.
PLEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!
Is anybody out there feeling creative today? I'm technical - not artistic. I would assume something MAME-related would be good - incorporating the MAME logo on the CP and marquee...
Oh one other thing... If you look at the control panel you'll notice the 2 start buttons are at the top in the middle... I plan on those being an "Enter" and "Escape" button instead. The start buttons would be somewhere above the players' buttons... Any other ideas are very welcome, though. (Including layout issues)
Maybe I can have some sort of contest for the best ideas!
I still need round up what I can give away, but I'm certainly open to suggestions... (I just don't know what people would want.)
