I can't belive they said all those bad things about the keg case. I am now glad I didn't make the keg case i was going to make though.

That article pissed me off. Not only is there nothing wrong with the majority of those mods, they didn't even have the decency to credit the people who made them. Even going so far as to say the Biohazard mods creator was anonymous. THey were smart enough to steal the pic from TheBestCaseScenario which is run by Paul "CrimsonSky" Capella. The least they could do is credit him with the mod he made.

I have seen much tackier mods out there. Whoever write that article is a dunce.

personally i liked the alein guts mod that was very creative props to whoever made it

but dick nervous was right they should have gave some sort of recognition to those who took their time in making them

any mod is a good mod wether your puting in a lighted fan, cutting your intials in the side or doing a total make bodymake over it is still a good mod

and if you mess up the more you learn the more you grow

I've seen tackier mods than probably ALL of those, well, maybe not the beaver. The one with all the skulls and slime was pretty cool actually. They were all weird but at least creative. I was totally gong to slap a mini-itx in a small heinekin keg but then i discovered arrogant bastard by stone brewing, I'm just waiting for them to ut out a mini keg.

The only problem I had with the article is that they missed a few.

Take this leather queen for example...

I agree w/ Rich.. I wonder if the individual who wrote it ever modded their case beyond applying a new case badge.

Y'know, we scrapped a black leather couch a few years back, and part of me said "could I use all that material in a mod?" It probably does have a lovely texture; I wouldn't mind padding my keyboard with leather.

Whoa, hold on there. When did I imply that the guy who did it was doing a second-rate job at modding? The only thing I said, that the mod is not to my liking, never said anything about the quality of the work.


Edit: And if the same guy did the digg, Batman Begins and the AMD mods, then kudos to him for making them, they actually look good.
