Title: New artwork is installed (pic inside). Thanks Nannuu!!!
Post by: telengard on October 05, 2003, 10:22:32 pm
It looks great, so much better than what I had originally.  I now crack a little smile every time I happen to glance at it.   ;D

Nannuu did an excellent job on the marquee and side-art.  I can't even
draw stick people so I'm grateful he was able to help out.

My god that looks great.  Great idea! ;D

I have a temp marquee that says MameTiki with the mame logo and i have alot of people ask me what it says (like they forgot how to read!) ::)  I have been mulling over a change and removing the mame all together.  I love the classic look of the machine!

Can you take a shot of the control panel...?

Is it modular?

I'm diggin the defender motif myself.  Definitely looks cool gj to both of you.

Yep, it's completely modular.  I have some pics here:

I'm very glad I switched it from swappable to modular.
There's nothing like playing Defender w/ the original
controls.

Ok, as someone who really wants new sideart (and can't afford much now)..

1) How did you have it printed?
2) On what?
3) By who?
4) How much?

and it looks GREAT!

Bleh, that last post was just supposed to be a "Modify", sorry.  I hate having
spelling errors.  :-[

To answer your questions:

1) Kinkos (believe it or not)
2) The marquee is their "back lit" material.  The side art is their "ready to apply graphics".
3) See 1)   :)
4) The side art was expensive, almost $180 for both sides, the marquee was around $22 bucks.
     They had to send the stuff off-site since only a few Kinkos sites do this kind of work.

I'm happy with it.  Last time I went to Kinkos and had a marquee done it looked awful but
they didn't do it the way I mentioned above.

Thanks for the complements!
