UPDATED! *New Design* UAII - Critique My Control Panel
web.geek:
Final Design. All buttons, joysticks, and trackballs have been ordered.
I am looking for help on the upper deck graphics. I am no artist :-\, but I tried to "simulate" what I was looking for. I need a 3-1/2 inch blue glow around the left trackball and a 3-1/2 inch red glow around the right one. Lightning of the corresponding color should sprawl out from each glow. I used the sample from mamemarquees.com to do the mock-up, but I need a standard "300 dpi" version for printing. I am looking to match this marquee. If anyone would be willing to freelance this, pm me with a quote. The dimensions are roughly 36" wide by 11" high (at the tallest points). I can provide more exact dimensions.
Thanks for everyone's input.

When I designed my marquee, I also mocked up the lightning background in lo res. I just told Scott at Mamemarquees.com to replace it with a high res version on his end of things and it worked out perfectly.
Maybe you can ask him?

Take your time on the cpo and, if need be, hire someone to get what you're looking for. The unique design deserves equally unique artwork, IMO.

I would move the joys & buttons up far enough where your hands can actually rest on the control panel.
Otherwise its going to feel like you are standing up & typing.
Just my $0.02

hey... i can't help but notice you have your pinball buttons on the sides of the upper deck. first of all, that's gonna feel strange. second (and most importantly, you MUST use two different buttons. one for flapper and one for nudge. otherwise you'll kill every play with TILT and it'll be useless. you could just not assign a nudge, but i wouldn't recommend it. you could simply use your player 1/2 coin and start for these and assign a different button to pinball coin, start, plunger.
just some things to think about. not sure how important pinball is to you, but i find myself playing pins as much as arcade games.
