Uber newb question...applying sideart
« on: April 02, 2008, 05:22:21 pm »
Sorry for the uber newb question, but I couldn't find the answer and I want to "make sure" I do it right before I start cutting my side art.

I got my side art from mamemarquees.com and it's a little bigger then the actual side of my ultimate II arcade.  I'm assuming before I put it on I "cut the excess off"....and that'd be way better than cutting while putting it on...correct?

sorry again for the newb question, feel free to flame.

This one has been disscussed a few times, most recently by miniwah for his system 1 cab. I dont think there is any real definitive answer. But personally I would attach the artwork first and then trimm it using a surgical scaple to gaurantee complete coverage. My £0.02
