    I'm bored and I want to paint the side panels of my cheap and extremely boring Rosewill R101-P-BK case. What color should I do?

    This is it right now.

    Pardon my noobish photoshoppings; it was done quite quickly. My power supply lights up blue, but it's really not visible unless it's really dark, because then you can see it through the power supply grille. Which would look best? I'm aware the paint is not gonna be as shiny as it seems in the crappy renderings above.

    do it all or none of it, as it looks silly and like a half completed job otherwise

    I agree with leaving it - go outlet your creativity on something else! :)

    Go orange, bright orange. Contrast it on black of white. It would be epic. <3 orange.

    Specifically, the most horrid, day-glo, luminous, loud and girly shade of pink you can find.
