Title: Arcade Character Collage
Post by: gdilly on February 02, 2010, 07:47:45 pm

I'm looking for a collage of arcade characters that I could as a control panel overlay.  I found the picture below as an example.  Anyone have something similiar I can "borrow' or know of a site that has it?

Also, I was experimenting using that image you posted.. very nice (but you have to choose between top or bottom half, AND I need a better quality picture.  (otherwise it will be pixelated).  Do you think you can find a higher resolution pick? or tell me who drew that background so I can find a better one?

Thanks.  I have a logo for my arcade that I will be using (not a fan of putting MAME in the marquee, but that's just my opinion).   ;D

As for the picture itself, I have no idea who made it or where to get a better quality version.  I was hoping that someone here would know that or know of art similiar to that picture.

Also, what is everyone's opinion of using something that cuttered as a control panel overlay?

You can use that for your CP...just create additional overlays around the buttons...like a black solid overlay that has an opacity of say 75%.
