Title: Pictures of a upright Pole Position cabinet artwork?
Post by: ratabase1 on April 21, 2004, 09:00:26 pm

Does anybody have any pictures of the artwork on a pole position upright cabinet they could share?  I especially would like to see a good image of the squared area with the racing cars on the side art.  Thanks in advance.

Are you planning on Vectoring the artwork?

I hadn't really thought of that as I have never vectorized anything.  I was hoping to get some decent pictures of the side art to create either a stencil to use on my cabinet, or maybe be able to hand draw it on my cabinet.  However, if I found out more about how to vectorize artwork, I might consider it.  Do you know anything about vectorizing artwork?  Such as what software is used, etc?

Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand, Sodipodi, are all vector drawing applications. It can be a bit daunting to get started.

Any idea when you'll have time to take the pictures of your PP2 cab and post them?  Thanks.

I'm going to a warehouse on Thursday that I know has a near perfect PP upright, I can take photos if you still need them. Let me know.

  :'( I am still looking for some high quality pics of either a Pole Position or Pole Position 2 upright to try to vectorize.  It has almost been a month since GGKoul said he would take some pictures of his PP2 cab and post later that night.  As of this date, he hasn't posted the pictures, nor will he return any emails on this.  A couple of other guys also volunteered to post pics, but haven't been able to come through yet either.

 ??? Does anybody else have access to a Pole Position or Pole Position 2 cab they would be willing to take pictures of?  If so, I'd greatly appreciate it.  I'm specifically looking for pictures of the sideart.   Thanks in advance.
