    I got 2 skins (one for future use) from Skinit.com. Great company, with fast service, great printing quality and good customer support.

    Nice skin. Good job on the application of the skin.

    You should upload a pic or two to the NBR Image gallery

    also was the dell logo precut?

    It's cut like that from factory.

    There is a separate piece for the tab portion of the LID (about 2" wide), and I chose the letters to be half and half like that.

    They have many styles available, but they also allow images to be uploaded and modified to one's taste.

    The Dell logo is also pre-cut.

    There really isn't much to it. Just peel off and apply!

    my only problem is the fact it doesn't cover the logo. I wanted to get my GF the batman logo on the centre of hers, but the big silver DELL logo would make it look insane.

    That's pretty amazing, can't wait until they make skins available specifically for the 1530. (The led zeppelin ones look phenomenal :eek:)
