Vinyl overlay?Anyone Know where to get good ones?

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
Hi People,I have been debating whether or not to paint my 9300.I was going to go gloss black with blue flame over but I dont like taking apart my comp to do the job properly cos I am one of those people who always ends up at least a screw short when I take something apart. So my next idea was a vinyl overlay but I cant find any good ones anywhere.Has anyone here tried one of these?Are they any good?Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated

although i can't really help you with your problem, i suggest you wait a little longer before giving up on a helpful post. waiting two hours usually won't generate enough views to get good responses. check back again later tonight.

Unfortunately, I was too afraid to press ENTER to enter your site after reading section XVII. Violations of your TOS. Porn sites have fewer entrance restrictions than this.

it is strictly so big corporations cannot attack us. there is actually only a few sections that pertain to the buyer specifically in there.

Oh, ok. I'll have to read it again. BTW, what big corporations are attacking you? Microsoft™ or Walmart™ or Starbucks™?

they are not attacking us, but the older vinyl graphics businesses had to deal with it.

various companies claim that their logos cannot be reproduced or sold without their consent and such...blahblahblah.

we do not sell corporate logos, we actually sell our own graphical representations of what they look like, to us

As the Op can I just say it is great to see that someone used search to try and answer an 18 month old post!! Fantastic.
I am still without an overlay as I kinda lost interest until I reread this post.
I am going to have another look around now.
I am looking to get some Jim Fitzpatrick artwork or maybe something from 200ad i.e Judge Dredd or Rogue Trooper if anyone has any ideas on where I can get some good images of this sort to upload to a decal supplier.Please post a link or hit me up with a suggestion

Ok All you Guys!!!!!!!!1 Here is a decent Suggestion for ya all............Go to this site
http://dell.skinit.com/
This site provides you with custom image skins for all Dell branded laptops. The best thing about it is that the sheet that you apply on the laptop is a 3M(TM) sheet that can be taken of and reused (basically the post it type but made of durable )

Quoting : http://dell.skintit.com

<TABLE style="MIN-HEIGHT: 180px; PADDING-TOP: 15px; HEIGHT: 180px" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=525 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD style="BORDER-RIGHT: #ddd 1px solid; BACKGROUND: url(http://dell.skinit.com/images/about_left_image.jpg) no-repeat 50% top; WIDTH: 263px; PADDING-TOP: 130px" vAlign=top>easy to apply, easy to remove
Skinit skins are made from a combination of special Skinit materials and high-quality 3M™ Comply™ Adhesive technology. The skins can be removed easily and leave little or no residue behind. It's as easy as Pick, Stick and Go.

Skinit uses state-of-the-art digital printing technology to offer the most vibrant colors.

Skins provide a thin protective layer for your notebook, buffering it from scuffs and scrapes when you're on the move.

Skinit has developed the perfect skin for your notebook. These skins are designed to perfectly fit the unique contours of your Dell

They have stock designs and you can upload your own personal photo to suit your needs. I did mine with a photo uploader which has option of resizing and even custom lettering.

Hope this helps....
