Photos of my painted computer case. I might ask my boyfriend to do a quick finishing sanding job on it, and then I'm going to start sticking my strawberry stickers on it. ^_^ There's more details about the entire project in my BOREDGIRL blog archives.

Editted to add more info:
1. Underneath the DVD-RW & CD drives is a Fan Master fan controller made by Super Flower. It adjusts the speed of the fans that are inside my computer for cooling purposes / air circulation. The LCD screen reads out the temperature.

2. The blow-hole at the top of my computer has a fan attached to it with red lights. Boyfriend used a Dremel to cut it and it's there, also, for cooling purposes / better air circulation.

3. Window was cut out with a dremel and that's Lexan glass used in the window. We tried super glue to hold it in place, which didn't work out. Hot glue seems to be doing the job well, but we also used clear packaging tape on the inside for extra security. :)

4. What happened to those ugly ridges on the side panel? It's a SECRET! Just kidding.. we bought a second computer case, because the front panel got so fcuked up from the original paint job. We used the flat-side-panel from the second case and just turned it upside down, since the ridges were ugly and difficult to paint. The front panel is also from the second case we bought, but everything else are the original case's pieces.
