i was working on making my own startup screen and was wondering if anyone had any comments/suggestions, seeing as how most of you are much better artists than me.

p.s. can you tell what my favorite games are?

My personal suggestion would be to pick a single character/theme and stay with it.  But, that is more personal preference than anyone.   Though, I really like the fact that you have the character from Tapper on there as that is very uncommon choice.

I agree. I'd pick one game and stick with that picture. I personally hate when pictures are not formatted the same (ie same borders, resolution, etc.).

i'm now just going to go with one game, like sugested, and since Tapper is such a great game and uncommon, i thiunk i'll go with that. but if i can figure out how to change the startup screen without manually changing it every time, i'll probably try that. but basic things first!

Now, you just have to get a beer tap in the room where your arcade unit is stored and you'll be all set.   :P

yeah, but there's a problem with that. 1: i'm a minor 2: i don't think my parents would like that much (well, my dad would but my mom wouldn't  ::) ). however, f i put soda in it, then my mom might go for it  ;D
