That's amazing but you should have painted it half of it a type of blue. (If you know what I mean)

Thanks fellas.  Here is the White Muslin Backdrop.  Took an Iron to it, but still has some deep Wrinkles.  Maybe some time hanging will help.

 

I seem to like the white much better.. Makes the Orange seem More Inviting, if you see what i mean.  :)

The white backdrop does change the tone of the pics quite noticeably, I like it

as well. As for the wrinkles, I have actually been using fleece as my backdrop,

practically impossible to get wrinkles into that (though it does attract our

dog's hair like crazy, always need to give it a proper cleaning before taking

pics, and then remove the remaining bits that still remain with GIMP).

Argh, now you have me thinking about a white backdrop. Although black does fit

my build quite well. Hm, decisions, decisions. :lol:

 

WoW! I love the color. Perhaps paint just the fan grills on the top of the case  the same color orange.  Nice work.

Personally I very much like the balance between black and orange as it is,

but then again that's just personal preference in the end anyway.

I will be using white for the LED's.

 

 I am pretty much done with coloring this.  I'm a point where I'm happy with the look.

I'm going to try photo paper next.  White and black rolls.  No wrinkles. :ph34r:

What a beautiful build! Just a quick question: Is it hard to get these Black and Yellow Plastic things off of the MPOWER board? I'm getting one as well and wanted to remove them, too. 

Did you need anything special or does just requiere a good set of fingers and reasonable force? :P

There held on by adhesive. If you have

A way to warm them first it will help you remove

Them. If not gently working an X-acto blade under the edge

to get it started works.

I used 3m adhesive remover to clean

The sinks off after. I'm sure there are

Other solvents that work just as well.

I have to say that SLI bridge is the best looking part of that build. Where'd you get it?

soo much orange.. very nice build. handy with the camera too.. does anyone know how to do the writing that on the front. How'd you go about doing that.

I dream of 0s and 1s folding to my every command,

The white also allows the camera to focus better.

Which Writing Are you talking about?  The Front Panel?
