We have an ARTWORK forum.

Also, the Control Panel thread shows you the same thing as what you're asking, pretty much.

yes we do but this thread is for designs that are perfect for people who can just resize and print! the post a pic of your control panel shows photo pictures of finished cabinets and would be hard for anyone to use, this is purely just for designs finished or unfinished.

I thought it would be helpful, if you do not wish to use it then you do not need to

You really can't, in most cases, just resize and print, though. Each overlay is tailored to your individual needs and CP button arrangement.

as I just said! thats wher this thread comes in handy more than the others because having posting raw image designs like for instance a 27inch pure white control panel overly with measurements for people to go by and just then put there own touches to it,

I will post my designs and templates and see if there usefull to people

Feel free to contribute whatever you'd like. It's always welcome around here! :)

Just make sure you do it in the ARTWORK forum.

    • My Arcade (updated 1/30/13)
Ginsu's right - this belongs in Artwork. This will probably get moved there when an admin sees it.

I can see this being useful for vector CPO images. My image is a Centipede theme (similar to the original) for swappable panels though so I'm not sure how useful it would be to people. I posted what mine looks like in the Artwork forum though and I'd be happy to share it if anyone does want it.
My Collection: Mame cab, 38 dedicated vids, pin, skeeball, coin op air hockey table, Ice Cold Beer, Megatouch, 2 token machines, and payphone (VAPS, pics at Arcade Crusade)

Add Ambience to your mame cab setup

Wow, you pick the ONE time I decide to finally look at that thread as your chance to strike.

The coin thread is different because it concerns BYOAC as a whole and isn't really an artwork thread. (It's tokens, which belongs in MAIN)

It was just odd for a first post here. Most people have a first post like:

"OMG! This is so cool! I'm 14 and broke! I don't know anything, so teach me everything!"

or

"Long time lurker, first time poster.... Check out my control panel and tell me what you think!"

  • The Revolution Is Coming...
I like the idea of posting CP vectors. There are no way near enough on here!!! Hence why I posted mine in my thread as I remember when I found it really difficult when I first used illustrator.... now I can't stop using it!

If you do start an official thread I will post mine in there happily! Although it should be in Artwork. Maybe everyone else will follow and post theirs.

As for the avatar issue now I know why I have seen the bloody image so much! Lol.

Eh i got it from somewhere else. I dunno where but hey i will change it just for you.  Both Happy now?

Sorry to mess up your identity. Maybe i should go and report myself to the police and let them lock me up.
Because what i have done is absolutly out of order.............  :banghead:
