What Else Do You Customize?

What Else Do You Customize?

Cars? Cases? Model kits?

Every day here, we talk about Windows customization.  Skinning the Windows UI, changing icons, tweaking performance, adding animation, giving everything a different look and feel.  However, there's an entire world of customization out there beyond your PC. 

In the past, I've posted about cool case modifications, hand-made mice, weird desks etc.  We've seen all the cool stuff OTHER people do, but I'm wondering what all YOU do that isn't Windows skinning.

Do you mod your car?  PC case?  Build strange lawn ornaments?  Let us know what else in your life you customize, tweak or otherwise make your own in a unique and interesting way.  If you have photos, post them! (But please, keep them clean)

Phone themes huh? How hard are those to do?

Depends on the device......
you've got phones, smartphones & PDA's

Phones are probably the easiest with several dozen new screens showing up on DA everyday or so.

Smartphones & PDAs generally require a bit more work and there are several programs out there (SBSH's programs comes to mind) that help.

If you want to see what I consider a 'Master" check out Juni's Skins WWW Link

I started customising my skin with body art when I was about 16... even got hooked on the pain that went with, but then it just started getting too expensive and I quit before I became the mona starkers. ;)
