What I think they mean when they say "add pictures" is to get the cab in position to where it ALMOST fell on you and have the wife take some pics AS it starts to fall on you.  :applaud:  ;D

Well, I made a lot of progress on fixing the mess.  The soul edge cab is gone, but truthfully that cab was the biggest piece of crap.  Very shoddy construction in my opinion.  Anyway, I got the monitor mounted in the virtual fighter cab yesterday, and today I got the motherboard/hd/computer stuff mounted in the cab.  It is turning out really good.

I still need to re-make the cp and such, which is 80% or so of the hard work I suppose.  I got the computer booted up, it was missing a system 32 file, so I had to reinstall xp.  It messed up all my maximus arcade settings and I had to re-install arcadevga drivers and such, but it worked.  Good news, I got the monitor working.  The neck board was a bit off, I pushed it back onto the neck and it was acting weird, fuzzy screen and such.  I pushed it a bit more and it clicked into place, worked perfectly.  That made me REALLY happy!  I figured it would have trashed the monitor.

Anyway, this seems to be coming together real fast.  The quality of the virtual fighter cab is probably 3 times as good as that soul edge.  I am going to have to get a new bezel (the soul edge one is too short) for the monitor, and new plexiglass for the monitor.  Also I will need a new marquee as the custom sized one is not sized right lol.
