I'm glad to hear it.  I had your upright arcade on my short short list before I suddenly found a deal last week (I bought someone else's project which had a 27" monitor and several extras).

Good luck!

Hey, that's the marquee I designed for Peale in this thread! I'm suing!

On a related topic, what lawyer does that Foley guy use?

Since you designed that for me, it has been popping up all over.  You made a definite winner on that one.  Shame you didn't trademark the design.  Of course, then you would have had to enforce that trademark, which costs big $$$.

Sorry about that. I normally let the customer pick their own marquee from the Arcade Art Library, as we have our own wide format printer. Just as long as they don't want to use any trademarks (MAME, Pac-man, etc).

If you want I will stop using this Marquee. Honestly though, it's the most popular marquee we've had.

I could always send you a free copy of it, just as a small thank you?

I was just kidding about suing, I'm delighted to see it's so popular.
A free copy would be awesome if it's not too much trouble  :D

Im lovin that artwok too, its what I used on my cab. I originally thought Peale had designed it before being corrected that I had JoyMonkey to thank.

Thanks again JoyMonkey (and to you Peale for requesting the artwork in the 1st place

I too use that artwork on my cocktail. It's definitely a winner! Thanks to all who were involved.
If you build a frankenpanel, chances are I don't care for you as a person.

I'm so jealous, Peale has the very rare and much sought after split-screen dynamo cabinet. Only one known in existence....lol

LOL...that's a bezel that doesn't go to the cab just stuck on there to get it off the floor.

I need to get either a black or a blue bezel, the red just doesn't work.

Flip that bezel over to the non-glossy side and spray paint it flat black. Looks great and you don't have to buy or cut a new bezel.

I thought about that, but really want a blue bezel.  Nearly everything else is blue, and I found the perfect shade of poster board the other day.
