needs some improvements

i don't know what anyone else thinks, but in my opinion, the case light is supposed to be hidden in some fashion, but oh well, and what the heck is up with the duck? it makes it look kiddish.

The game actually wasn't that bad, it was pretty fun to play, but the show was...yeah...for little kids.

the duck adds class.

i really liked pokemon blue for the gb. yellow was annoying with that little rat thingy following you around.

what killed it for me was the fact that all the cartrages used volatile flash mem or somthing, and a battery to keep it alive.
and so one day, after i had almost beat the whole game, the batt died.

i was heartbroken......

What all you do is save the game. When my battery died I just had to load my last saved game...Oh and for the case those are some deadly angles on that tubing.

Yeah i Think its actually pretty cool, i just wish i could see it in the dark, but other than that, its pretty cool...not so sure about the poke-me-mon but all in all the colors are sweet, you need just a little more practice on the cable management tho ;)

cool mod all in all, especially for a mid-begginer

You know regarding the cable management...I can just barely make out that he is using an aspire 550watt power supply, which has ridiculously long cables, i dont think you can hide those damned things in anything but a monster server tower, but hey you still did a good job at the mod in whole if you ask me.

I can see what you were trying to accomplish with this mod. I have seen cases with multi colors all lit by a UV cathode. You just need to clean the wires up a bit. You can go buy some egg foam and layer the bottom of your case with it and hide the wires under it. Just cut some notches for the wire to fit in. I think this would be an awesome computer if you cleaned it up just a tad. Also to drive the colors try one more UV cathode.

yeha i actually have 2 UV lights in it, the second one is hidden at the bottom of the case, the case window is blocking it..anyways i took this picture in the dark but when the pic came out my friends digital camera, it looked as if the room was fully litted?? anybody no how to actually have that effect where just the lights of my computer is showing?? i didnt like how the pic turned out, hence the reason i named my mod "light show", if anybody could answer that would be great

I feel that the size of the case is too small for what it contains. Thus it might hinder the performance of your machine. I am only going on what these pics tell me, so I can't say much. I will say this though. The overall style of your machine is pretty well thought out, but the concept is too overelegant. Keep it simple(er) and maybe host some more pics so I can judge a little better

It'd be nice to see it cleaner, but considering how much you have packed in there, I'm amazed you made it all fit. Nice.

And for those of you talking about Pokemon, the shows weren't that awesome, but the games were. Just talking about it makes me want to grab an emulator and start playing.
