Post by: mumbles on April 05, 2006, 03:48:30 am

Hi,

this question has probably been asked heaps of time before but I can't find an answer after searching the forums. I am in desperate need of help to create an instruction bezel for my cab as this is the last thing I have to do before it's finished.

i have a 21" monitor and would like some emulator instrcutions and maybe screen shots or arcade character grpahics on it. I use mamewah and have 6 admin buttons at the top of my control panel, pinball buttons onside and front and the following emulators set up - mame, visual pinball, daphne, lightgun games and sk jukebox.

What software program to people use to make a bezel??

if any1 can help thatwould be appreciated. either post here, pm me or meail me.

Thanks in advance

I would recommend adobe photoshop cs2.  You can get a free 30 trial version at adobe's website.  You can find plenty of tutorials online on how to use photoshop.  You should use Illustrator to work with vector art.  A trial version is also available. 

There is also software on the disc that came with the book.
