    Ok I have been reading about how to mod in the forums. I got confidence that i can do something with a computer.

    ok so i got this computer from my friend. He has been having it in his basement for a while and he ofored it to me for free.

    Thought i need Help!!
    I dont know wat kind of designs to make or wat to do.
    I was wondering if anyone could help me start out my project.

    That remind me so much. I have this case lying somewhere in my junk.
    I can suggest you disseasseble it completly. Figure out a theme for it and see for the possibilities.
    Look around in the forum or trought the net for some ideas.
    Painting, electronics, lights, the possibilities are endless.

    Always remember: it's all about your thing. We can suggest a couple f things, but you're the only one who build it.

    and BTW, edit your posts insteed of triple posts, some could get angry. (Bucko, you're the man )

    Edit: I remember where mine is, it's one of the cases I use for the Cpt Harlock project (still looking for some parts)

    Anyone who think a computer is sexy need to #$? and fast

    first off, welcome to the forums.

    Secondly, I agree with Sly. You need the idea for what you want. We can help from there. Paint, lighting and a window are the usual basics for a first PC mod.

    Third, I merged all your posts. Give it more than 20 minutes before you bump your thread. People will read it as they get time.

    People will reply, might not be instant but someone will eventually reply.

    I'd say look around at other mods get some inspiration. Think of a theme, might be just a colour scheme or a movie and work from that.

    I'm currently watching 2001: A Space Odyssey, so the only thing springing to mind is a HAL 9000 mod.

    Funny, I watched Dr. strangelove yesterday. A Kubrick theme can be really interesting...

    I bought a Kubrick 3 pack on DVD: 2001, Full Metal Jacket and Clockwork Orange. So I've been working my way through them.

    A Kubrick mod would be interesting though.
