Title: Cocktail Overlay Questions
Post by: jedimason on March 09, 2004, 03:50:43 pm

I'm building a cocktail cabinet very similar to a mspacman that has my own weird dimensions because of the third control panel on the side.  Mostly just a wider design so that two people will be a little more comfortable playing together.

First, I'm wanting to just print out some clipart of my favorite games at kinkos and then just apply them to the already painted black top under the glass.  Or maybe just the mspacman or Galaga logo on either side.

What are some good sites to find these images?  I mostly just like the classic games.

What kind or paper and adhesive should I use to apply this stuff.  


Is there any need for them to print out an entire overlay if most of it will be black anyways?  What I'm saying is I'll just arrange and apply the clipart wherever I want directly on the black top.  

Thanks for any advice or help you can give me.

Jonny

Thanks for the link.

Is there anything like the big mspacman or galaga logo that goes on each side of the table top.

Okay I love one of the galago logos on that site, but the mspacman(the one with mspac sitting on the letters doesn't look that good)

Does anyone have one more similar to the one that came on the mspacman cocktail cabinet.

My next project is to do the Ms Pac Man stuff. I have some raster artwork... but not the vector stuff yet.
