I like the other border WAY better.

thatitalian · « **Reply #11 on:** January 29, 2009, 12:54:21 pm »

Have to agree, this looks a little too much. Let me see what I can do. What is the rest of your art like?

The first one looks great. I liked it enough to save it and will modify it for myself

wooowman93 · « **Reply #15 on:** January 29, 2009, 04:04:57 pm »

Here is the first one in psd format

Please tell me which one is better

One thing I did on my instruction cards was to leave off the joystick. The buttons, to me, were the only thing my guests would be confused about. It's just too bad we take the time to make these things and NO ONE bothers to read the instructions.

Exactly. People always ask a million questions and figure it out by trial and error anyway.

If the four sub pics are x.1, x.2, x.3, & x.4, I like 2.2, 1.3 and 2.4. 1.4 is almost as good as 2.4, though. 2.3 looks out of scale to the other sub pics, and far busier too, IMO. Of course, things might be different full scale.

Either 1.1 or 2.1 will work whatever other sub pics you use.

I like the busy border!!

It is just cool with all the different characters.

wooowman93 · « **Reply #23 on:** January 30, 2009, 10:24:50 am »

no. 1
or
no. 2

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #24 on:** January 30, 2009, 10:50:06 am »

I agree with u_rebelscum. I like the second one, but use the Metal Slug pic from the first one.

wooowman93 · « **Reply #25 on:** January 30, 2009, 07:07:05 pm »

Here it is

Please edit and post

And if you print it let me see some

Thank you

Oh no! The first pic ruins it! You gotta change that.

wooowman93 · « **Reply #27 on:** January 30, 2009, 08:03:56 pm »

True but i can't find any better characters in vector form

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #28 on:** January 30, 2009, 08:18:37 pm »

I think it's just the word "Menu". You might try it different. The changing colors throws it off, in my opinion.

wooowman93 · « **Reply #29 on:** January 30, 2009, 09:04:27 pm »

Here it is
with new "menu"

Ginsu Victim · « **Reply #30 on:** January 30, 2009, 09:33:18 pm »

Much better, though I'd make it the same vertical size as the Neo Geo label and the same distance from the top.
