Any kind souls want to help me with my marquee?

[markronz]

Well I recently bought a florescent marker board to use as my High Score board to keep next to my Ms Pacman machine.  A high score save kit won't work on my board...long story.   So I've decided to use this board instead.   


I actually kind of like it better as friends can write stuff on it and trash talk and stuff.   Since I have no connection to the Michelob beer brand, I've decided to make my own marquee to go along the top of it.    The only problem is that I've literally never used Adobe Illustrator before so every little thing I do is taking me a looong time to accomplish.   I'm not necessarily asking anyone to do all the work for me, although I certainly wouldn't refuse it if anyone was willing to help me some.

The goal is to have a more generic marquee for my "arcade".  Since this is going next to a Ms Pacman machine, I thought it best to have a Ms Pacman theme.   My last name is Ronsman, so I was thinking of having a tag line of something like "The Ronsman Arcade - Where Growing Up Is Not Required"    I've attached my VERY rough first draft.  It's so preliminary, I shouldn't even call it a draft.  More of just a starting point.  Again, I've never used Illustrator before, so don't make fun of me too much!



I was mostly hoping for some ideas of what I could do.  I was planning on filling out at least the "RONS" text so that it has that pink outline around it line the word "Man" currently does.   Then around the outside I was considering maybe just continuing on with the power pellet border.   I wasn't sure how it would look though since the Ms Pacman figure might not be centered any more.   Also I wasn't sure if that would be too boring.   In my attached AI file, I have some other sprites in the file, off the picture currently that I thought maybe I could use.  Things like ghosts and fruit.  But I wasn't sure where or if I should incorporate those.

I guess I'm just looking for any help at all, whether it be tips, ideas of what you think might look cool, or actual help with the ai file.   Anything would be appreciated!
