New MAME Startup Video v.2

DeLuSioNal29:

Yes, I just updated the link.  Seems like link I supplied only works for mobile devices.

This is the version that I think is going to stick.  I'll talk to Saint about hosting the new version.

I like it, definitely.  Nice way of incorporating that RW logo without using the watermark.  I understand it being unavoidable; this is an improvement in my opinion.

However, I could see where some people might prefer the one with the watermark over this.  Any chance of keeping them both available?  I mean, unless I'm wrong about that, and no one likes the original better...

DeLuSioNal29:

Well, since Saint has been very generous in hosting it... I'd like to limit the amount of "versions" available.  Plus people hated the first one.

If you ask me, it's too long.  It should be faster and snappier, like the 'intro graphic' on a cable news channel when they're all "CIVIL WAR IN BELGISTAN: DAY 5"  Like 4 seconds but packed with awesomeness, then go to the full text logo.

Yeah, I understand about the hosting thing.  It is very generous of him to host files like that here; thanks for that, Saint!

If people seemed to generally not like the first one, then so be it.  I personally would have been happy with it, but I do like the second one better.  I, for one, definitely appreciate your efforts!

I see your point, but I think it depends on where you use it.  If you're using it during boot-up or something, then yes, I can understand wanting a shorter video.  But I've seen lots of other short vids out there, including DeLuSioNal's own "lightning" intro for Maximus Arcade, which is also a very cool vid.  I think it's nice to have something longer, with a little more substance, to throw in with a set of videos to run during "attract" mode or similar.
