    Ok mate.. nice one :rock:

    But, i have a few "constructive crititisms (sp?)"

    Heres a quick suggestion from me..

    get out the dremel, drill whatever and remove as much metal as you can, especially where the drives, floppy, and hard drive is...

    The less metal shown there the better..

    Get a proper Red Neon and add a nice Red L.E.D Fan right bang in the middle to...


    Humm, don't take that as a "your case is crap do this" take that as a "if your stuck for new ideas.. try someone elses.."


    Humm, im gonna get slated for this.. :wallbash:


    Over and out,

    Jang.

    looks nice, maybe an idea to see if you can rotate the CD/DVD 90 degrees horizontally so it faces sidewards, if you intend to use the pc as everyday machine in that angle it might come in handy

    No offense.. but did i just hear you say your going to sell that? :hehe:


    Mate.. im going to tell you exactly what you have done here...


    You've taken say a old crappy computer like a ermm 1.2ghz p4 or something, taken the case sides off... Now heres the real selling point :idea:


    You cut some perspex (red to.. WOW!!) and just stuck it to the side.. I mean the tops not very nice... and ermm... Good luck to however buys it..

    That is a bodge job :nono: i mean.. if i was you.. get the old case sides back.. cut the biggest holes you can then put the perspex behind it to neaten it up.. cause thats just nasty.

    Sorry, im just p*ssed off.. and yes.. im taking it out on you.

    P.s this isnt actually Jang.. before i get him in the crap.. is his mate

    Awesome get out clause... won't work though. ;)


    Pretty nice job on the case :)

    Not sure about the heeoge amounts of site URL spam, ridiculous quantites of adverts, and attempt to sell the case after posting a whole 4 times on the forums all in this thread though.
