But, after reading, I have to agree with CR. It does look a little like a xmas tree. Now, I'm sure you have something planned later for it, but just as an idea, maybe have some flickering, sort of like what a flame does. I know flickering can be achieved with CCFLs by putting a sound reactive inverter next to a fan with sensitivity turned up. Creates random flickering/dimming CCFLs. Maybe you can figure it out with your controller with the LEDs.

Well - can't fit CCFLs behind the mobo. Not to mention, I rather have the arduino controlling it all.

Also, just throwing out ideas. To try and hide your cables, you could try wrapping them in blue UV sleeving. It'll sort of blend in. Make the edges stand out. It's a real mystery to me too.

Yeah the only problem is that at the end is where all the soldering connections have to be made so it kinda has to stick out. Can't exactly UV sleeve that. Not to mention, there won't be UV in my case

Also, Welder glue is really good clear glue. Holds in about 5-10 minutes and is real solid after 24 hours. It beats the pants off hot glue. It's what I use to hold together my CCube in my Portal mod. You wouldn't believe how many times that cube has fallen down (and scared people

) without anything breaking. They sell that at Home Depot...i think.

Again, just giving you ideas. Bored at work for the next 2.5 hours so....ya

EDIT: Ok, i know, for sure, that Lowes sells the glue (that's where I bought it), but I could have sworn I saw it at Home Depot too. Here's a link to the stuff:

Welder Glue - Ebay

Thanks for the link, I'll have to try that next time. The mobo is really pushing down on the LEDs so they're not going anywhere

For some reason I thought that maybe there would be space inbetween that the LEDs would fall, but the mobo is pinning them completely again it. It came out alot better then I expected.
