Sorry for my English
Hello, in my first post I wanted to take this opportunity to share with you an idea I'm doing.
The idea is about artworks for mame games that simulate the look of the original cabinet´s game, showing the marquee, the bezel and control panel.
This is thinking of playing mame on a monitor turned vertically, and although you can use with any size monitor, one of about 37 "or 42" would show its approximate real size.
visualization example
First I created a standart layout for all mame games, so everyone is in the same format.
More examples of generic layouts
"In game" captures
Generic artworks
Now I'm doing one by one the games that I find arts.
"In game" captures
Dedicated atrtwork
Usage
Once we download the file we are interested (each game has its own full artwork), all you need to start enjoying it is to copy the file (zip) into the folder of mame artwork, simple as that 
We also need to have the program configured as follows
In addition, you must have specified the path to the artwork folder in menu [I]options>directories>artwork[/I]
Thanks to Lord_Hiryu for letting use many of its arts and its marquees and Macarro´s Vcabinet, whence comes this idea. Just as users of both retrovicio.org arcadeforever.es mainly to share their works.
Each design is for a particular game, so I will update as soon as I finish

The bezel being utilized is the older/inaccurate one missing the large red dots.

Hmmm. Interesting. i think I like it. Although I don't have a monitor of that type so I likely won't use it.
Isn't Mr. Do already working on something like this? He's been hinting at it for a while now.
I like the lighting effects (Back-lit marquee, unlit bezel, partially lit control panel) and I like the perspective added to the control panel.
there may not be a "one size fits all" framework for these because not all control panels and marquees were the same size.

All of my artwork files have been set up this way for some time, even before they added the marquee/cpo functionality to MAME. It's why I've worked so much on CPOs lately, and done them in such a way that others (e.g. Mr. Do) can integrate them into 3-D views. I have a 52" flat panel monitor that I mounted to a swivel so that I can rotate the monitor 90° to enjoy either portrait or landscape orientation depending on the game, and in portrait orientation I have the marquee/bezel/cpo displaying in something close to actual size, and this is especially important when integrating a front-end with Future Pinball, MAME, Daphne, etc. It allows me to run pinball in arcade render mode with the second monitor as the backglass, etc.
Now if I could only integrate my X-Arcade panel with my various flight joysticks and such.

Very cool! The mine is similar but using the widescreen format to show a little more (the cpo).

I've never seen this cabinet. can show a picture and I change it? Thanks
The designs I make them by hand with photoshop, but there are many cabinets that are not as they really are and I guided by pictures I find online. So find fault, but with your help and knowledge will correct.
Sorry for my bad english, i need a online translator :-)

Here it is. It will be hard to do because the monitor is at an angle. Nightvoice is right there are many different types of cabinets. Do a Google image search to see the cabinet you are working on.
Don't worry about your bad english. You are doing fine and the work you are doing is really nice.
*edit* speaking of bad english I left out an "R"

Hello, some time ago that I do not put anything new, and the reason is that I'm changing how I do the full artworks. Now I'm doing so that you can select from the menu on mame, and using the different elements separately rather than a single image as before. The resolution changes from 1050x1680 to 4000x6400. I would also say that these designs I make for my own use for a reason that will show you soon, and I share in case anyone wants to use Tomorrow will update with nearly seventy designs in the new format. You can now select from the menu on mame as "VCabinet" (virtual cabinet), here you have an example:

Yes, that's fine. Better for us, too, to save bandwidth.

hehe I know this bezel, cool that you are using it. Here goes the original one I made if you want:
http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/2170/genericbezel.png
I loved the control panel you made for the Neo Geo. The buttons are perfect (where did you get these?) and the perspective is spot on, but joystick is different from the original and its perspective is wrong. Could you upload the buttons separately?
Regards.
EDIT:
It'll be so cool when we can choose the screen inclination.

Thanks for the bezel Ramirez, sure I'll use it on more occasions.
The buttons are taken from cpwizard. I leave you in the attachment.

I've the project open in Photoshop. If you want, I can send you the .psd via email.
I texturized and darkened it a bit and this is how it is looking at 4000px right now... I don't know if you prefer with ou without shadow...

I am REALLY loving this thread!
Question: have you thought of adding or speaking to David Valdeita (Seleuco)of iMAME4All to add support for your artwork.
Reason being, I personally think it perfectly fits iPad/Android tablets, especially when you add the iCade to the mix.
What's your thoughts?

Hello, very good idea. I think imame4all uses official artwork, mine are the same but adding another view more, so I think that can be used with imame4all.
I make them for use with a bartop I'm doing, and they will both mame and vpinball with a 22" monitor.
Here it is a design in 3D:
In the future I have planned to do a lowboy style cabinet with a 37" tv.

These work nicely. I'm just finishing up converting my homebrew files to this format so that I can add a VCabinet option to my front-ends. I wish there were a place to download photos of the speaker panels unique to each cabinet, but nobody seems to find them photo-worthy.
