    Sorry for two threads in 2 minutes, but whilst i'm in this section I might as well

    Basicly I've got a shuttle which is prim used as a mame / emu box under the tv, I'm getting it case skinned by a local company and i'm on the lookout for some high res images of classic games, stuff like pacman, maybe some side scrollers, shooters, anything you can think of that would look good on a black backdrop, i'm swaying towards a full case skin of r-type or something sim,

    any help would be wonderfull, point me in the right direction plx :p

    looks like something that could sort my main pc this site, I'm thinking of a metal slug skin on the full tower.

    So far on the shuttle i've gone for a shooter look, on the top i've got warning forever, with the grid fading to the side, a custom rtype on one side, now im thinking of something for the other, maybe lifeforce salamanda

    Any sugestions?

    If you've got a widescreen telly you can turn it sideways and play it properly.

    I really really need to buy this game for the GC! Everywhere's insanely expensive or discontinued! :(

    I've got the Dreamcast version - it's dreamy... but horribly hard.

    Are you after flyers/artwork or actual in-game screencaps?

    If it's the latter, try and find the r0ms for the games you're thinking of using (plus any emulators you need), take a few screen caps, resize them using the 'Nearest Neighbour' option in Photoshop, and composite them together in some fashion...(along the same lines as how I created my avatar - only I shrunk it instead of enlarging).

    If you're after artwork and flyers, I'm sure BYOAC have a few links to places you can get them.
