To clean up the site a bit, I thought I'd put all the thank-you's in one spot.
For ingame artwork, thanks to:
- The MAME Artwork Team, which currently consists of:
- Aaron Giles: MAMEDev, for updating MAME to make it possible to use all this new artwork.
- Ad_Enuff: Specializing in forensic restoration for most of the raster artwork, and final color matching on most of the vectored artwork.
- zorg: Specializing in artwork vectorization
- jcroach: Also specializing in artwork vectorization
- Nathan Strumm for much of the better-quality artwork that was already at MAME.net, which has been converted for use here.
- TAFA and Progetto Emma for the bandwidth to host the files.
- Ricky at MAME Channel for serving as an external mirror
- Gene at Vintage Arcade Superstore (VAS) for opening up his warehouse to me to borrow any artwork needed for scanning and reference.
- Mike at ClassicArcadeGrafix (CAG) for donating artwork to the project.
- JoyMonkey and the following members from BYOAC who got together and purchased the CAG artwork collection: arcadefever, ChadTower, CheffoJeffo, cw, Davieboynj, Diverdown, edge, Jabba, JeepMonkey, JONTHEBOMB, Kremmit, Level42, MameMaster, McCoy178, More Cowbell, Nannuu, Nicks, NinjaEpisode, Ninten-doh, Oddfeld, Screaming, shardian, Slycrel, somunny, Truecade, woodygjw
- And a big, BIG thanks to all of the outside contributors, who have taken the time to take pictures and scan in the artwork from their original machines. Without them, there would be no artwork here in the first place.

If you see something that originally came from your website, please let me know so that I can add you to the list).
