DS Daily: Who's got their skin on?

by Chris Greenhough { Apr 24th 2008 at 9:00AM }

GelaSkins' awesome range of DS skins got us thinking about decorating our handhelds all over again, but who out there has already skinned their DS, and which design did you opt for? Better still, have any of you customized your own DS skin? If so, now is your chance to show it off (pictures are a must for this DS Daily, obviously), and perhaps even earn yourself some internet fame!*

I haven't skinned my DS but I did use one of their skins on my iPod. It looks great, but the texture of it is a little unexpected - it feels alot like really smooth duct tape, with all the little stringy ridges there.

I'd recommend them anyway, even though i haven't done any DS skinning.

I recently purchased a Taiko Drum Master DS on the cheap and it should be here any day now. It's obnoxiously colorful and features a trillion Japanese cutesies per a square inch. It's incredible.

I also took a gander at the skins from that site a few weeks back and really, really, liked what they had. The coolest hast to be Swinging DAIM by DAIM (the one with the 3D graffiti-style arrows on a black-to-grey gradient background).

I've done a couple DIY skins. Here's my old one, Gwendolyn from Odin Sphere: http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f43/Elliewellie77/DSC00040.jpg

The one I'm using now: http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f43/Elliewellie77/DSC00403.jpg

It's Orochi from Okami, from the artbook :D

I want to know how people fit photo paper in their cases, 'cause I tried that and it broke the case's hinge -.-;
