TalkingBull:
I considered what everyone said but I still think that the simplest solution will be best for him.  I wanted to do a dedicated JAMMA cab but overall, it would have been more expensive... especially since I had the spare PC lying around.  Here's my CPO.

Kaytrim:
I thought as much.  Leave him alone guys.  I said that it his decision to make.  I like the look of the CPO TalkingBull.  Full speed ahead. :cheers:

I think you might want to put the instructions on the top part of the CPO and the flying aliens on the bottom part of the CPO.

I actually modeled my CPO off of yours and I tried to put the instructions on top.  It didn't really work with the overall size and button combo.  In the end, I didn't think it mattered since I know my dad knows how to play it.

Cool.

Before you actually send it off for printing, maybe print it on regular paper and make sure the artwork isn't covered up by the buttons and joystick. I had to put some extra space around the arrows for the joystick since I used the joystick washer on top of the CPO.
