Just interested in what people are doing with Mamewahs Layout designer. Show us your stuff! Here's what I did today during my suprise day off.

I call it skin to infinity  ;)

There are currently 2 other threads for this exact topic.  Please see below and post your skin there :)

The "Favorite MAMEWAH Layout" thread has many in the old format.

I've also started a thread for version 0953b skins formatted in the new layout style.

Just a little helpful pointer ;)

Just a little helpful pointer. Read the thread "Show us your skins" Not here's my latest download. The original thread you reffered to suddenly changed into an advert for Stuzza's skin downloads so no point posting there. I didnt post on your thread because im not offering my skin for download. So hmmm what to do I know i'll start my own thread and wait for constructive replies. Got any?

Damn you just have the most wonderful attitude.  And since you've so kindly brought this PM based conversation to the forums, I'm done wasting my time with you.

Have a lovely day  ;)

If I see one more mamewah skins thread I'm going to kill myself.  

Guys don't take this the wrong way, but don't post pics of your skin unless it's totally original.  The first mamewah skin thread was great, with original looking skins.  Literally every single skin since then has been "list on the left cabinet on the right"  That's been done to death kids, and quite frankly nobody wants to see a post of how you took the exact same layout, changed the background image and border colors, and call it a "new layout".  

Feel free to flame, but you know it's true.  :-*

How come nobody ever says that about me?  :P (Igmore that fact that it would be a lie.) Instead I got newbies that think they know something coming back to haunt me whenever I try to throw in my 2 cents.

Ok I don't really use Mamewah myself....but looking at your skin I'm confused - is that the screenshot in the cab? And is that your arcade's marquee? Wouldn't you just put the game-specific marquee/snap on there instead?  Is this your full-time skin or just for humor?

Oh and it's "SKIN TO WIN!"   ;D

I'm pretty sure he's showing his nosnap/nomarquee images on that skin shot. On a related note, I sent a note to the moderators suggesting that all these skins threads might find a happier home in Artwork land.

Yes this has got a bit bigger that I expected - perhaps the artwork section would be a little more suitable now...

Well, I like seeing them.   If these were DK skins, you'd feel differently.  ;D

But IIOIOOIOO is most definetely correct.  This is the wrong forum to be posting screencaps and/or skins for download.

Look under the screenshot.
"I call it skin to infinity"
Understand that and you understand the skin.
And the fact that that is a pic of his cabinet.
eerie.

Yes, the Favourite Mamewah layouts thread was sorta hijacked by me posting updates for my site, and I apologise for this.  However, Minwah and I decided to start the skin site so that all of this stuff could be put in the one place and then we wouldn't need multiple threads on "Show us your skins" etc...

And yes all the skins are kinda looking similar now, however people always like a choice and I say the more the better!

I got the "...to infinity" part.  I was just wondering why those pics of his cab were shown for Street Fighter II - The World Warrior (or whatever), and if they were the permanent images or not.  And if they are...why?

It looks cool, but just not functional...
