    I came upon this website. www.uniqueskins.com which allow you to custom make skins for your laptop. i got drawn into this neat idea. but before i pay the 20 dollars, i would like to know if anyone has tried this, what is it like? is the material durable? does it really look as good as the samples?

    I'd recommend http://www.schtickers.com

    I've purchased and applied 3 of these, for my own notebook and for family. Very durable, and looks lovely.

    i decided to go ahead with uniqueskin.com since all of the above company uses the same material. and uniqueskin.com offers the cheapest custom skin. 20$. but one last questions though? what quality image do you recomand to upload? higher the better?
