Installed the new 'red' trackball (its deffinitely orange this bloody thing). Lit it (white super-brights)....again, it's most deffinitely orange. Gonna get those red LEDs and see how I go on. Also, setting up a space cambridge soundworks sub in the cab for that extra oomph! I still (lol) aint had chance to test the christmas tree lights out, but will post pics this week

Mvaughn recently asked if I would be willing to share my cabinet artwork, well it would be pleasure after all the help Ive received from this board. The artwork can be found Here. (Right-click, save as)

I'll add the original Photoshop version (minus controls layer) later.

Here's a pic of the red trackball - Although once again, it's blatantly orange as others have pointed out...must check out those red LEDs

Cheers

Craig

You know......

That mamwah theme is really nice. It goes beautifully with your artwork. Would you be kind enough to offer that as a download?

Cheers mate!

Hiya mate, sorry I've been away for a while so not had chance to do much, inlcuding playing on my cab (sob). But I'll upload the mamewah theme and drop you a PM with the link sometime over the weekend. Sorry for the neglect

Craig

mvaughn · « **Reply #129 on:** March 14, 2005, 10:34:10 pm »

No worries mate.

I look forward to your PM...

Cheers

I think it's high time your mate designed me a control panel!!!!!!

ras2a · « **Reply #131 on:** March 20, 2005, 08:07:17 pm »

lol, you like then?

trimaniax · « **Reply #132 on:** March 21, 2005, 04:41:30 pm »

Wow, nice work and attention to detail. I had originally intended to just use black formica for my control panel but seeing your overlay makes me want to investigate doing an overlay of my own. I'd love to be able to do a Fight Club themed cabinet with "Jack" on one side of the control panel and Tyler on the other. I'm sure I'll have come questions later when I try to get my own project off the ground.

Edit: I'm also planning to use the UA II plans for my cabinet. It would be neat if there was one place where people could post tips or modifications to those plans since they seem very popular.

cyberphox · « **Reply #133 on:** March 21, 2005, 05:33:21 pm »

Trimaniax: that's a good idea as I am using UAII plans as well.

Ras2a: I don't just like..I'm in love..I emailed about the control panel. I'd change my whole panel just to have an overlay like that.

ras2a · « **Reply #134 on:** March 23, 2005, 08:12:31 pm »

Cheers trimaniax/Cyberphox. Yo Cyber, I've mailed you the CAD plans. If anyone else wants em' just hollar. I'll also be getting the .psd for the overlay off my mate in the next few days

Cheers lads for the kind comments.

Craig

cyberphox · « **Reply #135 on:** March 23, 2005, 09:06:37 pm »

Thanks to the CAD plans for your control panel after years of thinking of this, I actually went and bought mdf board today!!! Time to break out the drill and sweep the dust of my buttons, trackball, spinner, joysticks and IPAC...they may have a new home soon.

ras2a · « **Reply #136 on:** March 24, 2005, 05:46:18 am »

I've uploaded the plans for anyone who's interested (.dwg/AutoCAD 2004)

Plans 1

Plans 2

Will be getting the .psd file any day now

cheers, Craig

I can't wait to slide my own artwork under those controls...gee..I may have to start working on a MameWah theme now!!

Katana Man · « **Reply #140 on:** April 01, 2005, 10:31:04 pm »

Thank you Craig for releasing this to the public. Any progress on the Photoshop files? I'd love to check them out. You don't have to worry about removing the controls layer, as we could just turn those off.

ras2a · « **Reply #141 on:** April 02, 2005, 07:24:21 am »

Katana, I've been out of the 'scene' for a while as I've been busy lately. I will be letting my mate know today and will see if I can get the .psd

cheers mate

I am doing my CP graphics at the moment and have invested about 50 hours into my current design and I still see no light at the end of the tunnel.

It's been slower for me because I am also a very novice Illustrator user and learning most things as I go. But the great news is that I am enjoying the process.

One of the art critique replies I got suggested I check out your CP. I have seen it lots of times before and thought it was good but now after really studdying it, well now it has just blown me away.

Said it before to you ras, bloody great job.

ras2a · « **Reply #143 on:** April 03, 2005, 06:31:03 pm »

Thanks a lot mate, appreciate it. I'll upload the .psd real soon (promise). Also, I'm after doing some side-art next...it's not a priority at the moment, but hopefully later in the year, when things calm down.

thanks again mate and the best of luck with your panel...lovin the avatar and sig btw.

Craig

cyberphox · « **Reply #144 on:** April 03, 2005, 11:12:26 pm »

3 cheers for the .psd coming soon!!!!!

ras2a · « **Reply #145 on:** April 08, 2005, 05:52:43 am »

ok, just got it, will post later tonite!

Craig

Stu_C · « **Reply #146 on:** April 08, 2005, 10:01:28 am »

Wahoo!!

Can't wait to have a look at this. Thanks a lot for sharing this ras2a

ras2a · « **Reply #147 on:** April 09, 2005, 04:30:11 am »

Right, sorry for the mega delay in getting this up.

EDIT: If you require the overaly, please PM me as downloads have knocked my website bandwidth quota over limit

Be warned, it's BIG (around 26MB).

Note: The 'text' layer has not been included, but I've left this off for your own customization purposes. Hope some of you can make use of it... As for the side-art, that's being done later this year. I'll upload that, when done.

Cheers

Craig

cyberphox · « **Reply #148 on:** April 09, 2005, 01:22:31 pm »

I'm downloading now..don't know if I need the text layer or not...I'm still too excited to even think....thank you sooooooooo much.

I downloaded it earlier this morning and saw that when I compared the photoshop image to that of the picture you took after it was printed and installed, that the artwork looks much richer and warmer than what you see on your screen. Were you supprised when the CPO turned out that way?

Aha, Well...I actually doctored the 'photo' as it was to be included on Minwah's site. However don't worry, the 'actual' overlay turned out exquisite!!!

I'm having to sell my Arc-Eden cabinet (funds required for my 'other' hobby). If anyone is interested in making an offer, please let me know:

Arc-Eden

Apologies for adding this here - figured that not as many people may read the buy/sell thread...

Katana Man · « **Reply #152 on:** January 11, 2006, 01:45:06 pm »

It looks like all of your pictures links are broken. You'll sell it better if you fix those.
