Custom Gelaskin - Droid Incredible Accessories

Has anyone done a custom skin for their incredible from Gelaskins.com. I recently got a groupon deal for $30 in Gift cards for $5 so I'm going to go the custom route and upload images to try to make a really nice skin image that matches the contours of the phone. I was just wondering if anyone else has tried this.

I did, it was a nice little (somewhat) protective addition.

Likewise, though a fair bit of warning: they cover the light/proximity sensor. You'll have to carefully cut out a small square with an exacto knife to regain that bit of functionality.
Here's the one I designed:

apparently uploading degrades quality quite a bit...
I also made a sweet dock over last weekend I'll show off. Very easy to make.

I just ordered the Van Gogh, Starry Night for my diamond, but there seems to be over 100 types for diamond alone..
The search here returned nothing, so I'm asking, has anyone got it? If so, how is it? What's the feel of it? Does it glide easily on your hand?
Just received it yesterday
Though the wallpaper borders don't match exactly
Overall, not bad, I think
I no longer have the 'sticky' back surface with fingerprint identification built in
Much more pleasant to hold
Are there also ones with flat backs?
recieved mine today; still not mounted.. will make photos when done.. the stickers are already flat, so you can mount it on a xda or mda as well.. only the edges are cut to fit the diamond back.case, but that won't matter too much i think.

My cousin and I made this custom dock this weekend. Okay, he made it, I just told him what I wanted.

Does any thing more need to be said. Good Job! umm wait... no. Ok, it's different at least.
Rubber screw caps and a better usb attachment method and you have a winner, I would also powder coat the piece black and then highlight the diamonds with red. But thats just me, oh, and maybe round the corners a bit so you dont end up in the hospital reaching for your phone
LMFAO.....oh man.....I needed that considering the type of morning I am having. I deffinitely give you an "A" for effort. After seeing this, I want to now make my own custom dock. Seeing that Verizon will not be selling one we really don't have much of a choice. GREAT JOB!!

Cheapie case from Target

I was looking for SOME kind of belt case for my Streak (until real accessories are available) and I found this one at Target.
I ripped out the clear DS slip cover from the inside and put a few drops of gorilla glue about 2 inches down the side (the long side) of the zipper to keep it from opening too far... just so it is used as a slip case.
When clipping it to my belt loop via the caribiner it just looks like a "tool case"... It isn't the best, but for $10 it will do until something better comes along

Very innovative, some good information to know. Unfortunatley though everyone will think you are a ds junkie.

Has anyone tried this on their phone?
I'm going to order enough to test and was wondering if anyone one had success stories or tips.

You can buy precut ones at phantomskinz. It comes with 2 screen protectors as well. Those are quite nice, no orange peel effect and not tacky at all
i dont need a signature
you know, that's not a bad idea...I've got access to a CNC router and mill here at work, and a place I can buy some sweet looking carbon fiber from (http://www.dragonplate.com/default.asp). It'd be worth it to make a back for my phone. Wouldn't take me that long either, but I'd have to get time to do it, and that's not likely to happen any time soon.
With any luck, I'll convince the boss to paint more android phones, because our products are seriously sweet, albeit extremely expensive. I'd love to have my Shift painted a custom color, or do some corporate testing with it...doubt it'll happen though

StickerBoy wrap

Hey guys. Just wanted to show you all what I decided to do here. I have the Samsung Clear View case in silver/grey for my White Note 5. I really like it, but the case being a shiny plastic scratches up like a mother just by looking at it wrong. Especially on the back. So I decided, why not get a skin for it? I have used stickerboy in the past, and they are having a Labor Day 25% off deal right now so I ordered a "leather" skin in pewter color. I did have to make the cutout myself around the camera hole. Turned out pretty good, but not perfect. Otherwise I really like it and I don't have to worry about it scratching on the back at all any more. Plus it adds grip which is great.
