tossup between the Zodiac and the Xicle.

I liked the Zodiac because it look very clean in simple.

The Xicle because it was different and very very cool looking regardless if it wasn't my choice of fav colors.

I voted the Xicle because it was a very different mod from the ground up. The only reason I didn't vote for the Zodiac was because it was one of those mods that have "been done before" type of mod. The Rocketfish is a common modded case today and I felt the credit went to the Xicle for it's new/ground up mod.

The seedbox most definitely. A very nice fit and an idea I haven't seen before (yes... I have seen the seedbox idea, but the idea of reusing a case)

I'm all for recycling and found the seedbox small and neat. I want one too

I like the other mods too - placements being the Zodiac at a VERY close second because of it's clean look. I think the Goliath is a big too large for general use, but still looks good (although I wouldn't use it daily) and the Xicle looks too toy-ish if you get what I mean. Very original too but I didn't like it at all.

Good luck to all the competitors

thats the one thing I hated about your mod. Was the colors. If it was blue, like I just said to Aslan in OCN chat, I would have your babies.
