Woohoo! My Jail Break cab pic made KLOV!

[Odonadon]

Before I started my MAME conversion project, I noticed that KLOV was missing pictures for both the cabinet and CP pics of Jail Break.  So, I submitted the pics (taken with my old crappy digital cam) and just noticed today that they're using them!  Rock on!

Now, with my new digital camera, I should take a picture of the CP again and re-submit that.

Anyway, just thought I'd share.

Your going to hit me, but that's by far one of the worst cab pics I've ever seen.

You need to take a full-length pic of the cab.  Also if you insist on taking a pic at an angle, you need to either submit two pics, of the profile and front, or take it at the standard 45 degrees from the front which shows a little of both.

Also your control panel image is simply a blown up version of the cp in the first pic. This is a bad idea as your original pic is low res and out of focus, not to mention the fact that you can't really see the cp from that angle.  The purpose of the extra control panel pic is to help identify the layout, button labels, overlay image ect.  Your pic shows none of this, and thus it should have been omitted.    

The only reason I'm being so hard on you is because you actually own the cab and could have taken time to get pics at better angles, regardless of how crappy the camera was.  (Notice I didn't mention the lack of focus or poor resolution, because unless you are a professional this often can't be helped.) KLOV also has notoriously bad pics, so I hate it when new ones are added to the problem.  

On a scale of 1 to 10 I give this composition a 2.5  Send em some more pics man.

Unfortunately, the cab has been 100% converted.  That's the best pic I'm ever gonna get.  The camera I took the picture with was one of those webcam deals that let you take the camera with you via 2 AA batteries.  There is no focus setting, nor does my particular camera work when not hooked into the PC  That cab pic will give you an idea of where my PC sat in relation to the cab.

I have, however, submitted a new picture of the CP taken with my REAL digital camera.  You can see the overlay and read button labels and everything!  It's very exciting .  But until someone else finds a Jailbreak cab pic, that's the best we've/I've/they've got.

They've posted the high quality CP image I sent in.  Looks much better  I've also submitted the PCB image.

"All submissions become property of the No-Name Coin-Op Museum."

mean they now own the rights to a picture you took?

Yes, there has been a lot of grumbling about that in RGVAC in the past. But it appears that they added that text AFTER the majority of the submissions were made, so there is little chance it would be binding.

Secondly, the majority of the pictures there were not submitted by the people who had "the rights" to them anyway.
