Ok, so it's just my opinion, but I've tried a bunch and none of them could give me the look and feel that *I* wanted. I always felt like I was using someone elses idea of what *their* front should be like.
Then I checked out Howard Casto's Raging Dragon. My first thoughts were "ack, a Dragon Theme?" But the beauty of RD (are you other FE guys listening?), is that it can be configured to look just about any way *you* want it to. The skins, sounds, image placement, etc are all up to you. I designed a skin that showed *my* arcade cabinet on the screen in less than an hour, and plan on making some nice 3D skins for it as soon as I get some time. If a few more folks jump in, there should be enough combinations to cover the gamut of tastes out there.
It's still a little buggy, but HC seems to have squashed the ones that could cause problems. It's come a long way in a short period of time and I recommend it to anyone looking to customize their cabinet to their own tastes.
