I've heard all the people that don't like multi character type collages... but how about some opinions on this?

The background looks pretty nice. I don't think you need all those characters. Maybe just pacman?

Looks a bit plain now doesn't it?

Yeah I agree on the clutter effect, but some people need to see characters to know that what the game is ! (Multi) This is Mine. Its for a cocktail

Why 6 buttons for players 3 and 4?   My understanding is there are no 5 or 6 button 3 or 4 player games... those positions should only have 4 buttons.

Yeah four is the max you want for 4-player MAME games (for the Dungeons and Dragons games IIRC). Sometimes people have 6+ buttons for SNES/N64 etc games.

I prefer the 2nd artwork :)

The six buttons for player 3&4 are for console emulators.

That is also the way mameroom builds the default layout.  I didn't see any reason to change it.
