Reevesad Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Bezel Art Templates for Mame View File Hi All, So I've uploaded some Bezel Art templates that can be used to create or just use as generic bezel art for games within mame. I use these for games where no artwork online can be found or is suitable for bezels but look better than just the plain Black borders. Here's what's held within the zip folders. Vertical/Horizontal Templates = exactly that, blank templates that you can add you own artwork to (1920x1080). Vertical 3:4 ratio with Clear Glass & Real glass finish, just copy and paste the folder onto your desktop, add your artwork I use the measurements 590x1080 (for each side) so it fills in the green space + a little more (but you can go less than this to fit within the green line), once saved rename the folder the same name as the "rom" name and save it to the Artwork folder within mame. The "Lay" file is included Horizontal 4:3 ratio with Clear Glass & Real glass finish, just copy and paste the folder onto your desktop, add your artwork I use the measurements 340x1080 (for each side) so it fills in the green space + a little more (but you can go less than this to fit within the green line), once saved rename the folder the same name as the "rom" name and save it to the Artwork folder within mame. The "Lay" file is included Vertical Arcade look Template = So these 4 templates can be used in the same way as above, but I use them for vertical games where the artwork on a usual 590x1080 template look too expanded/bloated. So look much better in a Horizontal format. So I came up with the arcade look around the edges and any artwork could be included using the measurements 340x1080 for each side. (makes some artwork fit/look better to the eye). The other file included in this zip is a Vertical Arcade Space (Tron) look. I just use this for games where there's no decent artwork available but the game is a space shoot em up. Horizontal Arcade Look = so within this zip folder is 6 different looking Horizontal bezels that I use for horizontal games where I've been unable to find any decent artwork or the game is just too random to even bother with artwork. So I would just copy and paste to my mame artwork folder and just rename to whatever the "rom" file is called. The reason I made 6 was to just make is look a bit more different rather than just have the same generic look. The "Lay" file is included. Vertical Arcade Look = so within this zip folder is 6 different looking Vertical bezels that I use for vertical games where I've been unable to find any decent artwork or the game is just too random to even bother with artwork.

Hope you find these useful and maybe even encourage some people to create their own Bezel artwork for everyone to enjoy. Must give a shout out to Derek Moore who initially created the original templates that I used to make my own templates with. He has an amazing video on youtube (link below) on how to create Bezel art using a free artwork package called GIMP. which about 4 weeks ago I had no idea how to even contemplate creating. so N'joy.
