Here are the pics Crimson. lol
These are of my design I did in sketchup almost 6 months ago. It has a removable frame from the back(almost like a removable MB tray but everything comes out except the power and accessory buttons, front fan, and DVD ROM.
Ill take some pics of the actual case later and try to post them to show my progress. Thanx for viewing

There we go...really very cool so far.
In a time of chimpanzees I was a monkey.
Those designs look bitchin'. I especially like the gizmo's and gadgets behind the door! That tied it all together really nice I thought.
Aren't you blocking off some of your motherboard with the PSU down there? **Nvm, your back panel through me off, but it appears that your motherboard is above your PSU. ^_^
People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.
Yeah I will be using a Micro ATX MB but expansion slot area is deigned for a full atx in my sketchup. I just got lazy and didnt feel like changing it from my old design. Thanx everyone for viewing. Ill post some real pics tommorow hopefully.

Here are the pics as promissed. I had to borrow a camera, my olo one was acting up. Oh well.
The case looks very scratched up but it is just the flash. I also want to note that the crome molding will be sanded and painted. Its not on atached well either, just a little glue, but It will get the royal treatment on the final attachment. It will also follow the edges of the case more evenly.
Thanks agiain

It's wider than I thought. You did a good job on the rivets and molding.
What's the vents on the back going to look like? Are you going to have two ducts, one for the PSU and one for exhaust?
One more question: how are you going to get the parts in? There's no side panel door. lol
Well I plan on using the top as an access to the parts on the inside. I hope to have the motherboard tray removable by only a couple screws but we well see .
As for the rear vents for the PSU and FAN... Im not sure lol. I did plan on drilling a few holes in the rear door and the bottom and top of the door is open to allow for exhaust. Besides that Im not sure. Any suggestions would be cool.
Thanx for the comments, I love the look of the BIG rivets, almost tank like in person. The molding will be sanded and painted the color of the case. I will probably flatten it a little more so its not quite as rounded, and it will deffinetly follow the lines of the case( I like crisp edges.)
Well it looks like monday will be the day to start this agin. I hope to build most of the inner frame then.
Thanx again, Dan The Geek
Oh almost forgot, I did a little more tweaking with my sketchup and decided a full atx MB is a must. This also shows how all the doors should work when finished.
How do I move this to works in progress?
Please fix the pics on the first page, or remove the RED X's
