My Realistic Arcade Bezels

[retroarchgirl]

@Orionsangel: are you interested to make a video on how you create the bezels? what software, methods and the steps and where you find the artwork? In this way people can contribute bezels and we can make bezels for all games in MAME! There is enough work! I want to try it myself too. It could be great if the source files could be shared too. if you use a program like GIMP (www.gimp.org) then the source file is XCF and can be shared and edited by anyone to make improvements, since GIMP is a free program for all platforms. The resulting PNG files we have now is difficult to edit since we don’t have the layers, …

my apologies if you don’t want to share your way of working, but please think about it because it could be possible contributors will help you. Also if you, one day, decide to stop making more bezels, other people can continue your work since we then have the source graphics files and know how you made them.

thanks for reading!

If you knew the software I use you might be surprised . I’ve thought about making a video of the process for years, but that would give it away and everyone would copy my method.

Isn’t that a good thing? There are 1000s of arcade games and more people making bezels means we get close to have bezels for each game. Anyway, you decide it
