Any fix for logo stretch on HD?

I’m using CoinOpsX WOPR w/Cheese on 5.68 firmware, because it works and I’m fine with that. But one thing that’s been bugging me is the top screen. Is there any way to make it so the game logos aren’t stretched so badly?

My local arcade reset the high scores for Galaga, so I did something I’ve always wanted to do

I just started learning the patterns, so the scores aren’t anything to write home about. I’ve always wanted to get a leaderboard sweep, so I took the opportunity and scored 20,000+ points on five out of seven plays.

I think that my generation finally stopped pushing the boulder, and I don’t know whether to pop a bottle of champagne or pop a bullet in my skull. I pray the former isn’t just a cycle of escapism that ends in the latter.
