Real nice theme, the only thing I would change is I would put the cd art over to the right over the wheel and make it bigger, the screen looks really nice, and I like the background alot, and nice choice of a console pic.

That screen does look nice! Is that widescreen though? Don't most Playstation games use a 4:3 aspect ratio? Have you tried out any video's in there to see how they look?

Yea thats 16:9. You will need to take that monitor to a 4:3 ratio so you don't get columns on either side of the video. Has anyone played with the idea of grabbing the PS1 screen clamshell (opened up) and using that for the overlay?

looks nice. I am going to pick at it a bit please don't be offended. Its nice and I couldn't do better but I do see a thing or two. I agree on moving the cd cover over and/or maybe rotate it just a smidgen counterclockwise. I also think that the playstation pic looks just a bit jagged. I think it needs to be cut out a smidgen better. I use this technique here http://www.photoshopcafe.com/tutorials/rounded/rounded.htm when I am cutting stuff out in photoshop. Just get your self a selection around the ps as close as possible and then start at step 2 do it a few times playing with the levels and such and you'll see what its doing and what gaussian blur levels and to use to get a good smooth cutout for your particular thing. There are probably other better ways of doing it also.

I can also try to cut it out if you want. As I said I don't mean any offense just a suggestion or two.
