Had my stripe for about 6 months, then I hung her up in the closet. About the time I was getting out, the AF had just started the PT programs. I think I ran 2 miles the first day and almost had a heart attack. Dont know about where you guys were, but a bunch of people was put on the "fatboy" program at LRAFB. Lot older NCO's took early retirement. Quality Air Force...
I got out and the wife went into the Army. Now she's an E-5 and she's got about 45 days an a wake up and she's done.
Anyway, John, got some tallented people here, if you head over to the artwork section, might be able to find someone to do all your art. I used to, but I got a little stressed out, so I just do small things here and there....
Good Luck!

I spent 6 years in Blytheville, AR. Middle of freaking nowhere for sure.
I will probably do my own art. I use Autocad 3D Studio Max and at work and have access to Illustrator as well here. I need to track down some large poster art and scan it in. I have access to a large scanner and HP plotter here too so I will probably print all my own stuff.

It would be cool but I am not sure that would blend into my basement decor very well which in turn would not please my wife LOL

Welcome John. I was Navy myself. I too should have stayed. I had 14 and a half years in and tossed it all. Too much time underwater I guess. I was a nuclear submarine sailor.
That's neither here nor there.
I tried MaLa, MameWah and both were ok. I tried GameEx but I thought it was a bit too flashy for what I wanted. I'm using Maximus Arcade now and love it. It's a commercial product but I thought it was worth the $25.
Welcome and good luck with your project.

14.5 years? Man that is a lot to throw away. To each their own I guess.
I already have Maximus Arcade and really do like it, although I am far from having it set up completely. It seems relatively easy to use and if I can make a favorite games list that my little girl can use it may be the way I go. I would think I could use the skin editor to make a skin just for her so she knows which one is hers. I guess I'll find out.
Just FYI, the RED HORSE theme I am using is based on a unit I was in that similar to the SeaBees. I worked with the SeaBees in Haiti for several months.
Also, work on the CP begins today. I just got back from HD with some MDF and some acrylic. I am heading out right now to get started. Pictures to come soon.
