Here is my new CPO I am looking for any suggestions before sending it to the printers. I don't know about the solid shading I think tinted may look better. I an looking for any suggestions text to small, bad layout, add text and so on.
Thanks.

1. In the "config" area, "classic" is missing an "s" (misspelled)
2. You may be able to lose the word "config" in there and just make the words (classic, arcade, etc.) bigger.
3. Perhaps a slightly thicker stroke around the font? I feel like the triangles behind the player labels are competing with the words a bit.
Nice looking CPO, looks quite versatile. :cheers:

I made the changes you suggested:
Checked spelling
Deleted "config"
Enlarged all text
Enlarged "Player"
Added drop shadow to "Player 1, 2" (I think this is what you meant, I have only been playing around with AI cs6 for a few days.)
Thanks for the input.
What do you think about the button shadows? solid black or just tinted? The game buttons are all black and the control ones are white.

I count 10 admin + 4 mouse buttons. Why none for P1/P2 Coin? :dunno
Also, is that a "u" or"v" in favorites? It looks exactly like the "u" in mouse.
Also there is a thin horizontal dark blue line between the player buttons and joystick for both P1 and P2. Is this a downsizing/render artifact?
Close call on the black vs. tint. I think black wins by the thinnest hair, but either would be fine. YMMV.

I have a coin mech on the front wired for "coin" when the coin rtn is pressed.
The V does look the same as the U that was the only thing about the font I didn't like.
The dark blue line is a render defect it's not there on the AI file. I don't know why it does that when I make them into .jpeg's.
Black sounds good to me.
Thanks for the input.

Yeah, looks good.
