    Hi StaticFX,

    That is really cool. If you don’t mind, can you possibly share with us how you make the sleeved cables?

    Thanks a lot :)

    its not hard.

     

    I purchased paracord (its super cheap on ebay)

    Remove ONE wire at a time.. using either a staple or tiny screwdriver (VERY tiny) or an actual pin remover, you pop a pin from one end, peel the wire off the flat cable, then remove the pin from the other end. cut the paracord almost as long about 1/2 down each pin. Tape one pin up (so it doesnt catch).. slide it through, remove the tape.. Now the fun part. hold the cord half way up one pin, then pinch/slide your fingers along the entire length (stretching/smoothing) of the cord. Make sure that both ends cover where the wire attaches to the pin, but not the actual pin. Using a lighter, slightly melt the end then quickly roll in your fingers to smush/pinch the end tight... (yes its a bit hot! lol)

    smooth it again and repeat the other end. Now, re-insert the wire in the spot you removed it.. and do the next wire. Its time consuming, but the result looks great.

     

     

    Now, on another note!

    @Thermaltake... you need to change something on the PSU side of the 24pin plug. I was easily able to put the top plug in upside down (it was dark! lol) causing the clip to snap to the side. You need to make the plug really only fit in one way because it took me a few minutes to realize what happened and why my pc would not start!

    Yes. I'm a super duper newbie in wallpaper making. That is the best effort I could muster. I took 1 image and tried making a wallpaper around it. Must be nice to have the skill necessary to do this, right?

     

    Good luck everyone!

    It takes a long time... and I still know I am greatly lacking! lol you did much better than most "noobs"! The clipping was good, and the placement of the logos was great (making them look like stone). Don't down yourself :) - I was simply saying that I had seen that viking guy before :)
