Title: Name For my arcade
Post by: BORIStheBLADE on January 15, 2008, 08:42:31 pm
Since I can't come up with anything that doesn't sound lame I wanted to see if you guys had any names in mind.
My arcade is going to be mostly 2 person fighter games, but I have others on there. Its going to be ran by only MAME because I just want arcade games on it.

The only name I could think of is fighters choice, but I still think its gHay.

I also found a picture on another site that I was thinking about encorperating into the marquee in the corner. I added some text to it. I don't know if I like the font style either.

Looking for a good free graphics package? Try the GIMP or paint.NET. The gimp even has a modified version that looks like Photoshop.

Gimps very good considering its open source lots of tutorials avaliable for it and very similar to photoshop. I teach Gimp for graphics to my Year 9 pupils. A load of tutorials avaliable for it. Well worth the download if you dont have access to Photoshop.
