Got this case a couple months back for $25 at Microcenter and I must say, it's a really great case! Only thing that really drives me crazy is my 120mm fan on the top keeps rattling the top vent. Time to go find some rubber spacers

So I busted out ol' mspaint just to give an idea of what I'm suggesting. It's not about pretty effects or wild colors, it's more about creating something fresh, something that either has symmetry or synthesis. Please forgive the crudeness, but considering there are about 5 functions in mspaint, I was kinda limited in what I could do.



Not a fan of the oval backdrop, but the lettering at least has some sort of coherence. Maybe I'll try to hunt down a copy of photoshop and try to get back into graphic work.

Edit: And I now notice that our forums are actually a really light blue, so yeah, either make the background transparent (not too hard) or match the color.

Second try



Edit: The edges of the text are rough, thanks to mspaint, but a semi decent SUPER simple logo.

I NEED PHOTOSHOP. DO YOU REALIZE THE HANDCUFFS INVOLVED IN OPENING MSPAINT AND TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING AESTHETICALLY PLEASING?!?!?! It's like trying to paint a car with a brush and a bucket of whitewash.

Where the hell can I subscribe to this thread? Shouldn't there be a link or a button to subscribe to thread without having to reply to a thread? I also have CM 690 but i don't want to be an undetermined 690 club member :P. Will upload photo if I have some chance taking it.

Transparent so it adapts to any background.
