    I'm a sucker for timeless minimal designs. And i just love the 'expensive' looking hifi component called Tinny HTPC. I am wondering what the custom heat pipe cooling is doing in temps. I am sorry for the hard work of the other modders.

    But my second vote would go to the lian-li mod because that is actually a 'modification' and not a 'build' like the others.

    How many posts do I must have to vote in this poll?

    p.s. I'm at bit-tech.net since it foundation, but never have posted. Now I'm here to support my friend Yemerich from Brazil in to show the world how fine Brazilian's mod can be. Whatever the results for the poll, clear is the fact that we have a lot of talented people here.

    So, despite worthless, my vote goes to Hephæstus by Yemerich.

    ahuehuaheua... Thats true! These are the good people at the brazilian casemod comunity that have been watching my thread in that forum since the conception of the project.

    Flat Head is the guy from who I learned how to paint a case with his nice tutorial. And one of the first intrepid brazilians to start modding in this country.

    Thanks my friend, i really apreciate :)


    And i really want to thank everybody else that voted in Hephaestus :thumb:

    HEPHÆSTUS: The amount of hand-made detail is awesome. The kind of build that looks like it was made with Much more expensive tools.

    Tiny HTPC: Clean, elegant look - like an expensive prototype from Lian-Li or Zahlman. Love the custom CPU cooler idea.

    Claudia Unit: Filimon always amazes with his incredible attention to detail. He puts in as much into a mouse as most builders put into an entire scratch-built case. Whatever this is to be will be awesome.

    GraniteCase: The sheer audacity to build a case (including the power button) out of granite has to be applauded. Looks awesome.

    L3: Very nice professional looking mod. A case I'd be proud to own. The only real "mod" in the contest.

    All good choices. Tough call but in the end Tiny HTPC gets my vote because of the simple elegance and the custom cooler.

    Already voted and leave clear that the project Hephæstus, by Yemerich, MoTM is, without doubt, ok.

    No offense or anything, but this is getting just too freakint thick. I wouldn't mind seeing the vote limitations get cranked higher up because it's PRETTY obvious one of the projects has been seriously pimped somewhere and I just don't think that goes along with the idea of the MOTM...

    It might be just me being wrong, but cmon...

    First of all i am not ofended, it's ok. It's pretty obvious the invasion. What happens is that the people that is posting here were modders from the brazilian comunity (most of them) that was with me since the project firstly came back on december of 07. I have a worklog there that is 16 pages long, and lots of visualizations. This mod came out on a magazine first as a project, wich called much attention to it. I invited them to vote on MotM in a post. I didn't asked for votes. They voted because they wanted to. But none of the new votes count, so no harm.

    What makes me sad is knowing that many of the voters in here didn't cared to take a look on the worklogs. They voted based on the pictures on the article. Don't get me wrong, the pictures are the best from each of the projects, and the text is much better than I couldn't describe my own mod better. But Hephaestus is like 30% done and i think the idea behind the MotM is wich PROJECT is better. If the final result was the case, them the MotM would be made just with finished cases

    It might be just me being wrong, but cmon...

    It’s comic to see some guys just voting for compatriotism, invitation or request. it seems like a crazy “war” while the MOTM competition just sinks into oblivion. let’s focus on the competition and have a reliable vote. :nono:

    I agree, it should only be finished cases, this would make it fairer.
    I've mentioned this before but nobody at bit-tech is listening.

    Hello friends.

    Why do not look as follows, "Do not think at this site can do for you Americans, but what can you do to improve this site," ok!

    Best Regards
