      @simbz23 Prepared this instruction card for Mario png in hi-res (exported from vectors). Should fit your needs for the Mario overlay.
      If want to try Inkscape, here's a video tutorial.

          @UDb23 Thanks for all the great info brother! I scoured Arcade Artwork and other sites after I saw your post, got a good collection of high quality jpegs and vector art for existing overlays and upcoming ones I will make.

          I will definitely start using that app for any custom vector work, thanks for the heads up! And thank you, likewise if you need anything let me know! Happy Easter :-)

            @UDb23 Thank you so much for that vector work, I included it in a reworked version of the Mario Bros overlay. I found a more complete bezel from ArcadeArtwork. Hopefully this is better arranged? what do you think?

                                Cool overlay @simbz23
                                I could see someone use this for a custom themed arcade cabinet!

                                  @simbz23 Maybe you already saw that post, in case you may need some custom ES logos or famous brand logos as part of your overlays you can use those included in the custom SVG logo pack.
