I Need some art ideas.
« on: February 09, 2004, 11:18:32 am »
I have the Control Panel art (see pic) and need something that compliments it but doesn't duplicate it.  My control panel is a rotatable one so it has the extra vertical area in behind (I'll attach another pic to show)  Anyways the area in question is 6 1/4" (15cm) x 25 3/4" (65.2cm) Any suggestions or rough drafts for ideas would be greatly appreciated.  thanks!

Off topic:
You say you're doing rotating panels. Any thoughts of posting your plans for the cabinet?

1uparcade.com was doing plans for his rotating panel cabinet, but he's put them on hold. I

'd love to have a rotating panel cabinet, but I couldn't even attempt this without plans. Let us know what you think!

Regards,
Mario
