Trick out and Customize Your Sager

Hey everyone, since i am now freaking out upon the arrival of my 9860 i have to take up my time by doing some other stuff. So i was thinking i want to customize my laptop with some nice stickers, but regular stickers are lame and i was thinking about vinyl decals liek they use on cars and stuff. After some searching I found www.quickstickers.com these guys have some awesome stuff and its all totally scalable to fit a laptop lid. They also allow you to create your own stuff in illustrator or corel draw and send that in. So now i have to bust out my vector skills and design up a lid design. Just thought I'd share with everyone.

Hey make sure to post your designs. I'd really like to do something like this on my 8890. Not sure how it'll look on the darker grey chasis of the 88xx machines tho.

I might be able to get one posted tonight. Provided that I can figure out how to change my info. Right now, the forum won't let me post attachments...

Freak, did you Photoshop or PSP those designs on? I found a nice looking logo on their side, and want to try to preview it on my 8790.

So here's 2 more mods of a design. The one with the large head is a quick crappy stretch of the other one but it will be redrawn to be biting down on the emblem, medallion, whatever thing.

Use the text of the second one if you are going to do some goofy looking faces.

yeah was just updating them when i realized the tribal didnt quote fit. some say top one is too girly, and think the bottom typeface fits better with the sketch either way.

I say stick with the bubbly looking text you had ealier, it seems to fit with nearly everything else. The texts now looks a lil... bleh..
