I put this together tonight using a bunch of existing vector artwork. Let me know what you think about it.
Also, I'd like to perhaps customize the title instead of the generic sounding "Mame Arcade", but I couldn't figure how to go about that as the words are in vector format and thus not editable like a font would be.

It's a little too busy for my tastes, but it'd not bad.
What editor are you using? Any decent image editor should allow you to use a font to put "text" on the image, then scale it warp it etc.
I use Fireworks, but I'm pretty sure photoshop allows that sort of thing.

Yeah, I knew it was a little busy (my wife had the exact same comment)...I'm looking to remove a few of the characters to make it a little quieter.
I'm using Inkscape. I should rephrase my issue with fonts -- I want to use a font that looks like the "ARCADE" in the marquee, but I can't find anything that looks like that.

They may not have that exact font, but I can almost guarantee you they'll have something you like...

To me I like to have 2 or 3 characters on the marquee but only in the space that the title doesn't take. The title has priority on the marquee. Have all the other characters take up the side art nice and big. The side art is the place for serious details. Just my 2cents :)

Way too busy.
