Artwork Section Suggestion
« on: January 14, 2003, 08:45:32 pm »
Just a suggestion to add a section to the site about artwork.  Specifically for making marquees/CP overlays.  I've seen the topic come up on the msg board a few times now and I haven't been here all that long  :P  I think the most commonly asked question is where to get images to use.  For that I'm gonna throw out some links from 1UP and Snaaake:

http://www.fraggersxtreme.com/museum/
http://users.bigpond.net.au/paj/links_and_resources.htm#Art
http://www.oscarcontrols.com/gallery01.htm
http://dragonsden.emuunlim.com/
http://www.thelogbook.com/artwork/
http://www.gamegen.com/fightgen/characters

I just started working on the artwork for my cab and if I hadn't been smart and bookmarked the thread with those links in it I woulda been in trouble lol.

It might be nice to have some pro's/con's of printing on different materials (ie vinal) listed as well.

So guys throw out some more links and lets see if we can get this added to site  8)

PS.  If you think this shouldn't be added throw that in here as well

i vote for a section like this too ;D.
Art works just really makes for cp and and marque(maybe sides too)
also,review people who might be selling artwork and custom prints on the same section.

like "ace" and "cyberpunk"(i dont remember anyone else).

so we dont have to go to kinkos ever :P(i hate the place,they keep printing wrong size).
and yes..get as many links as possible ;).

There already is a ART/MULTIMEDIA section. It could use an update but it is there.


Coming Soon

LOL so there is.  I made a brief perusal of the menu at the left before I posted but missed it.  Oh well.  I guess this thread should be about updating it :)

Is there a resource that has different high resolution MAME marquees that users have made?  I am looking to get one printed out on high resolution paper, but would like a few to choose from.  I am not very talented in photoshop, so I thought there might be a few sites that have some?

Hmm... Mark's Arcade Jukebox is listed under Art/Multimedia, and mine is listed under Software....
