And thank ye ora...that is very generous...what I ment is....how do you keep it all one piece being consistant around sides and top bottom but I think you explained....its pieced.

I'm always simple......flames, girls, kiss...I'm fine with anything that's not pink or country music related lol

Ok, so sounds like sorta fun modern rockabilly type images. Stuff you'd put on a tattoo, basically. Kind of the right idea? If so, that gives me an idea where to start, at least. Do you want something seasonal, or something that would work for all year?

I would prefer year round...if that's acceptable but yes you have perfect idea

Just got done catching up on the thread. Bill, please tell Mary I hope she feels better soon.

Orachel, those skins look really cool. Would love to do something with my cat Splinter on my mod. Is it hard to do?

Nope, not at all! I use photoshop because that's my thing, but really, you just have to grab an image that you like in digital format (jpg or png is easiest... could be photo that you took, or a graphic from online... anything really) so that you can make sure its the right size, approximately, and then print it onto the special printable vinyl. I use Papilio Waterproof removable Inkjet vinyl... got it at amazon. I do mine a little more elaborately by compositing the images in photoshop or whatever, but that's really not necessary. If you've got some sort of a 'tube' mod, its much much easier than the box, really. And if you don't want a 'skin' that wraps around, but just want a picture cutout of your kitty, then thats just a matter of cutting her out of the photo and sticking her on where you want her like a decal. You'd want to 'seal' the image on there, somehow, so I'd go over it with varnish or clear nail lacquer if you don't have anything else. But of course if you do that, it's a little more complex to remove it down the line since you've put the varnish on the actual mod. If you know what you want, feel free to pm me and I can try to talk you thru the steps you need. First thing is to get yourself some sticky vinyl, though, that will work with your printer. ;) And if all of that sounds like too much of a hassle for ya, I know there's a place online that will make skins with custom images. I think they're about $10, though, and if you make them yourself, $10 gives you enough to skin your mod many many times over.

And Krispers... year round is just fine. Personally, I wouldn't want to have to hassle with changing it just cause seasons changed, so that makes sense to me. My goal is to get you what you want since you'll be having to carry it around. lol. All the same to me, really. ;) Okie doke, lemme get thru this crazy weekend, and I'll see what I can come up with early in the week, and let you know when I have some options you might like... sound good? If you come up with something you adore, or see an image you've gotta have before that, just pm me and let me know. I can adjust just about anything to your liking. I actually just snaggled a ton of those types of images for my neighbor, who got an ego kit from me, and I was just playing with images for him, so I've already got a ton of those types of deals.

I am the ULTIMATE Doctor Who girl! I'd have David Tennant's babies if it were an option, seriously. Let me see what I can come up with. THAT would be fun! Have you seen that guy's mod who made it out of a 'sonic screwdriver' toy? THAT was fabulous! ;)

No...I didn't! I also said if I could weld I would make a provari into a sonic or darlek! And at least your in agreement that Davids the best

ROFL!! I was trying to think of the right flavor, and that would be it, exactly! Certainly not apples. ;)

BTW, where in PA are you? I lived in Pittsburgh for a while. I've lived all over the country, and that's my fave place so far. My gosh, I miss the food in the 'burgh! I'm originally from Youngstown, Ohio. ;)

I've been to Schuylkill county. Trying to remember why... thinking it was to visit a friend's family over a summer on a ranch, or maybe an independent music festival? but not 100% sure. Bet its getting chilly out that way! Its still 80 in the days here. Weird. But now that I don't live in cold anymore, I miss the snow. Grass is always greener, I suppose.
