I have had a bunch of people asking for my MALA layout. Well, it's now available for download! I think I got it all bundled correctly, let me know if it doesn't work.

Features include:

Number of times a game has been played

Marquee images instead of text when selecting games

Videos and Start Screen Snaps

Colorful graphics

Vertical Orientation only and designed for an arcade monitor (640x480)

After you download you'll need to grab the game videos and start screen snaps. I purchased mine from emumovies.com. I suggest you do the same, it's totally worth it!

I have included all of the marquee images that have been resized so each marquee is the same size. Some are normal, some are stretched and some are squooshed. It's the best solution I could come up with for a consistent look.

Video of it in action here:

(the "John's Arcade" logo is not included in the layout. In that location it shows the "title".)

i used photoshop to resize all the marquees. I created a script to handle the resizing.

The .ai file is available for download here:

Woowman93,

Not trying to step on your toes, but I played around with John's Illustrator file and managed to come up with this.  Had to do some rearranging as well as a little tweaking to make it fit.  Maybe John can put all the MALA layout pieces in place.

The horizontal version is no longer available. Can anyone point out another location for me or can I get it sent to me to host?
