This is the thread that i am going to use to let everyone see the progress i make with my MAME machine. First off, don't worry anyone, no classics were harmed in the making of this machine. I am using an old cabinet, but it was empty and there was no indentifying information on it. So i dont even know what it may have been. So, with an empty cabinet and spare computer laying around, I figured that i would make a MAME machine. I dont have much done yet. So far i have the buttons that i am going to use, the control interface, and the computer is just about ready. I am using the Maximus Arcade software and have selected the Maximus Acidus theme which can be seen here:

That said, i am going to design a green type of theme for the artwork on the cabinet. Attached is a rough sketch of my favorite idea that i had. Let me know what you guys think. I feel like it still needs something more but i am not sure what. Maybe some sort of video game element, but i dont want to get to game specific or anything since this is a MAME cabinet. Oh and it will look much nicer when done by hand on the cabinet, this was just a rough sketch in GIMP.
