Title: Any games have an Orange/Black cabinet theme? CP pic inside
Post by: soslo on November 18, 2003, 05:08:46 pm

I am curious because I just did a CP with a reflective orange background and I would like to match it up with a marquee/cab design.

If I can't find anything, I'll just redo the CP...just wanted to see how it would look - and I ended up liking it, so I thought I'd look for a match...

I'm attaching a picture to show you what I am talking about...the color is a nice deep orange, but in the reflection, it is amazingly bright - like the stuff they use for road signs.

BTW, I have this same stuff in yellow and green...it is sort of mezmorizing...

I dunno if too many other people think this, but
unless your cab has some sort of blacklight theme,
that bright orange stuff is going to be incredibly tacky.

scene-from-batman-ish blacklight art = good (to an extent  :P )
bad clothing styles that look like construction signs = bad

(no offense 80's  ;D )

haha, ok guys, I think I get the point...too bad though, the CP looks good in RL  ;)

Guess I'll just redo it...no big deal

I had a Hyper Sports cab that was Orange & Black, only one I can think of off the top of my head.

Q*bert cab is orange and black, although a bit more subtle than your cp.
