You want to go to the extremes? Wanna etch your doodles, literally, into your most cherished possessions? Then the engraving is for you.
Companies like EngraveYourTech will take care of the technical part, by transferring your best doodling efforts onto laptops, ipods and even sketchbook covers! How cool is that?

Or, if you don’t want to mess with your equipment, but still want for it to look cool and artsy, buy these breathtakingly beautiful GelaSkins, decorated by the pro illustrators:
ENDLESS SUMMER by Chuck Trunks:

Amazing INK POND by Nanami Cowdroy:

Spooky MONSTER by Play Dead Cult:

And for the pop of color, MY POP laptop cover by Colin Johnson:

Of course, if you’re a cheap bastard temporarily short on cash or just a DIY-kind-of-person, you can skip the whole engraving thing and reach for your permanent marker right this moment ![]()
Ready? Set? GO!!!!

OMG I love the INK POD design I would love to just have that as a art piece to hang on my wall!

January 29, 2008 @ 8:00 pmthis is very interesting!
Those are awesome! I love what they did to the black MacBook! Sadly, I’m too cheap… temporarily short on cash to get it done for me and well, my skills with a permanent marker aren’t all that great either.

YES, that’s my favorite too. Amazing artwork!

I agree, it looks very cool. Thankfully I don’t have too many portable toys to even start wanting to do something on them

I can try the permanent marker way, but success if far from guaranteed, so I’m too chicken to even attempt
January 30, 2008 @ 11:05 amOooohh … I’m loving that Inkpond Iphone covers!
February 2, 2008 @ 4:11 amI like the phone covers but the sketched laptop is something I’d love to have done too.
February 2, 2008 @ 5:30 pmI ABSOLUTELY LOVED ->INK POND!!! THANKS A LOT NANAMI! BEAUTIFUL ARTWORK!
(I JUST MADE AN UGLY SCRATCH ON MY 15.4″ VAIO FZ LID, AND, FOR MY DELIGHT, A GOOD FRIEND TOLD ME ‘BOUT GELASKINS! NOW I LOVE MY NOTEBOOK AGAIN!)
