Title: choosing background color against orange wall
Post by: knightrdrx on November 25, 2014, 09:04:12 pm

I'm trying to decide on a background color and I like this red one as well as the theme.  I painted my basement Dukes of Hazzard orange and this is where it will go.
I don't want it to clash. Does it matter as long as it isn't orange??

oh no! i'm a Rangers fan! I think I'll go with the blue one they have.  I want a Burgertime bezel though!  I suppose that would look weird?  Is it best for all the components have to match..theme and color..? the marquee, side art, bezel and control panel? I don't want a PAC MATT disaster!

Keep the bezel but lighten the blue up to match the side art

What about going for a Dukes of Hazzard theme!

Dukes of  Hazzard would have looked good but i already have 2 big autographed pictures from the show already hanging upstairs..i wanted video game theme ..here's what I got..I can't wait to assemble it...they did an excellent job!
