Title: NEED SOME HELP DESIGNING A BEZEL AND MARQUEE
Post by: Shieldwolf on April 12, 2004, 09:43:22 pm

I emailed frosty, but I guess you guys have worked him to death, he hasn't replied to my email.

I'm looking for some help on making a bezel and marquee for my cabinet.

I want to use this as my background for the marquee.

and in Metro style extended font the  name for my machine. I was thinking game galaxy or starcade, but I'm not sold on either of those just yet. Then in the bottom right corner of the marquee I wanted to have logos for all the game companies including the console symbols like nintendo xbox playstation dreamcast etc and of course mame/daphne/ and the byoac evolution pic.


For my bezel I was looking for something like this

that also complimented my cp and marquee


PS here is a pic of my cp

How does a JPG like that wind up looking when you blow it up big like on your CP. Is it all choppy? Or is it high enough rez that it looks OK?

you it doesn't look bad at all. I was terrified it was going to look like ass, but when you put the lights on iit and the lexan is on top. It looks pretty cool.
