I kind of like that one. It has a PBS Sesame Street feel for some reason.

A couple more minor variations...

ChadTower · « **Reply #43 on:** August 04, 2008, 04:02:58 pm »

Okay now it looks like a religious token.

fatfingers · « **Reply #44 on:** August 04, 2008, 04:10:00 pm »

Heh. Well, we are all followers of the 1-UP guy religion...no?

vorghagen · « **Reply #45 on:** August 05, 2008, 02:17:44 am »

You got some pretty good token designs there, Fatfingers. Personally I like the one with BYOAC written straight, without the religious looking variations.
The way that 1up is standing made me think of having those men spell out BYOAC in the same way cheerleaders do, or the village people during YMCA. Anyone care to give that a shot?

xbakesx · « **Reply #46 on:** August 07, 2008, 11:33:14 am »

Here's my "YMCA" design... it's obviously very raw, and I'm not a huge fan, but maybe somebody can start here

ChadTower · « **Reply #47 on:** August 07, 2008, 11:40:10 am »

Hrm... I think they're trying to tell us something. This means something. This is important.

xbakesx · « **Reply #48 on:** August 07, 2008, 12:21:14 pm »

I made this design too... it only has one side, and it's hopefully it is not breaking the "copyright" rule... because it stinks of pacman... but that was kind of the point.

I also liked FatFinger's joystick one, and made my own... It's got a long way to go, but if it inspires someone, it was worth it!

fatfingers · « **Reply #49 on:** August 07, 2008, 01:49:34 pm »

Here's my 'ymca', although it's not really ymca-like.

xbakesx · « **Reply #50 on:** August 07, 2008, 02:00:39 pm »

While we're going Player 1 man crazy, I have this design too.

WunderCade · « **Reply #51 on:** August 07, 2008, 05:47:49 pm »

Could this be incorporated into the design somehow?

Because..... well........ no.

Some more designs.

Front_take 3

EDIT : Refer "Back Design" thread for, well, the back of course!

Mmmm, I dunno. It doesn't stand out. And it looks sorta patriotic, like a waving flag. It doesn't say games. However, it might be okay on the back and then the front having some icon with BYOAC.

fatfingers · « **Reply #54 on:** August 11, 2008, 04:33:08 pm »

My latest attempt... "Army of Cabinets"...

TheShanMan · « **Reply #55 on:** August 11, 2008, 04:59:15 pm »

Something I've been wondering, seeing that some of the designs have a high level of detail... How well will tiny details transfer to an actual token?

I actually really like this, it needs a bit of work, maybe on the text or the detail around the rim but the concept is good! Maybe someone could play with or tweak this, assuming it is ok with you fatfingers?

Nice work!

Fine with me. I have no artistic skills.

xbakesx · « **Reply #58 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:31:37 pm »

Not quite the Army of Cabinets, nor is there much better artistic-ability here, but it's my hall of arcades

ChadTower · « **Reply #59 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:49:31 pm »

That one would be pretty cool if the cabinets were better. It's a good start.

xbakesx · « **Reply #60 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:55:24 pm »

I know how quality isn't a subjective thing... but it would be easier to make them better with a little more constructive suggestion.

ChadTower · « **Reply #61 on:** August 12, 2008, 03:57:04 pm »

Perspective that better matches your average upright video cab, I guess. Those look a lot like 50s era EMs in shape.

Yeah, adding to this, they look squat and boxy.

thatitalian · « **Reply #63 on:** August 13, 2008, 07:31:44 am »

Again, this is another good design! I like this theme. It is also good as a general token as it isn't game specific but still remains arcade focused, much like the mame token.

JONTHEBOMB · « **Reply #64 on:** August 15, 2008, 10:03:59 pm »

I really like the Army of Cabinets design so far.

Here are some suggestions:
- Each cabinet should be unique in some way. Whether it is the controls, artwork, design, etc.
- A few of the upright cabinets could be replaced with other games like a pinball machine or a cocktail.
- The background needs something. Example: carpet with a space theme.
- The BYOAC logo is a tad too bold and it is covering up some of the cabinets.

Keep up good work!

YIKES! Don't know how I missed this thread for the last month.

Is the deadline still next Sunday (8/24)?

(I vote we give Pixel a little extra time if he needs it)

Last attempt by me.

Front design.

missioncontrol · « **Reply #68 on:** August 21, 2008, 11:20:20 am »

a combination of my background and Sez's foreground. Not an official submission without her approval. It would also need a little clean up.

xbakesx · « **Reply #69 on:** August 21, 2008, 11:28:06 am »

Well, I got distracted with other projects, but here's a revamped "Hall of Arcades"

missioncontrol · « **Reply #70 on:** August 21, 2008, 11:29:04 am »

you need a better slogan xbakesx

ChadTower · « **Reply #71 on:** August 21, 2008, 11:38:49 am »

Yeah, I like xbakesx' art but the slogan needs to change. And maybe the 2008 to normal text rather than fading into perspective like that.

xbakesx · « **Reply #72 on:** August 21, 2008, 11:45:07 am »

I'll keep working on a new slogan. If you've got one you like let me know!

Maybe the 2008 should be just one depth and lighter so it looks more like it's on the floor?

xbakesx · « **Reply #73 on:** August 21, 2008, 11:56:26 am »

Busy day at work...

The second one is in case the slogan is so gut wrenching that you need it to be blank to put your own thoughts there

Damn, a good crop again this year. Santoro - just make more than one token this year.

There, I have spoken.
