CP Layout templates, suggestions?

Okay.  Here is the short story:

A while back, I got a Killer Instinct Cab that was partially converted.  Built a CP for it, got the computer in, everything running and then the Monitor died.  Spent months (literally) trying to fix it (I hate Hanterex monitors!!!   :angry:).  Anyway, finally found a new monitor, installed it, re-built the computer and starting playing some games.  Now I realize that my CP is very busy, too many buttons, bad layout, etc (hey, its a FrankenPanel, but I was new to this   :P).

Now I would like to build a decent CP.  I rarely play fighting games, so I do not need the 8 buttons per player (I had that for both P1 and P2   ;D).  Here is would I would *like* to have (read: set me straight if I am totally out there):

- P1, P2 buttons
- Coin button(s).  Do I need both coins?
- 2 x 4/8 way joysticks
- P1 & P2 buttons (what do you guys recommend)?
- Admin buttons (i want to avoid the "shift" option as my wife and kids will use it).  What buttons do I need? Esc, Pause, Back???
- Trackball
- Spinner
- Nice to have (joystick for Q-Bert)

Would love your feedback, or better yet, templates of what you guys have done in the past...

Regards,

B

Jim,

Thanks for sharing it.  A couple of questions. 
- Which buttons do you have along the top?
- Do you have the file that you build the PDF from?  (AI, PSD)?  my CP is rectangular so I would have to resize.
