I am trying to design my own sideart. I want to have a bunch of acual arcade characters in a sort of college. (kind of like the 90 in 1 marquee.) I have looked at local arcade and they only have a few ingame pics of characters....Is there a website that has a bunch of them? Preferably around 50.

Try Arcade Art Repository (http://www.localarcade.com/arcade_art/)

Those arent in game pics...they are side art charcters with backrounds removed. There are lonly a handful of ingame.

It's very easy to create and use ingame shots yourself.
If you can get screenshots of the characters ingame, those can be blown up infinitely without quality loss in Photoshop by increasing the image size using "nearest neighbor" instead of the default. Just have to increase the size using multiples of 4 (or the "pixels" will get all weird when they are scaled up.

I started doin that just before yer post....Its a lil hard to isolate some stuff in SF but it works perfectly in galaga,pacman,tapper,joust....Its gonna take a while.

YOu should save them as GIFs, so you don't introduce JPG artifacts.

I'm Redoing stuff as lossless PNGs
I would love for someone to make a lil border and some temp lines so I can line everything up. If you want to help ill email you the pngs.

Id really like to see the finished product..... theres not enough collage artwork of actual ingame graphics.
What i really want is a snapshot of Ken giving Blanka a dragon punch while blanka is in his headroll thing hehe
