first case mod ideas

[pippy]

Hi
Ive been looking at some case mods and would like to give it a try, i was thinking of starting basic like changing side panel (thought of putting sillouhete of a rock climber(as i am a climber:) )) and a window behind the climber.

i decided to look on ebay for a old pc case but then i saw a metal laptop case which give me an idea, i was thining of modding a laptop case to fit motherboard n stuff. case idea HERE (http://www.thinkgeek.com/images/products/front/alum-case2.jpg)

Any body got any ideas how to sort out the airflow and where to place fans.
I am still not sure if i will mod a metal case but i am planning on modding a old pc case soon.

Thanks

thats probably gonna be hard considering how small that is, well for one thing where are u gona put the power supply.
one idea is u could put several small case fans(80mm or smaller) along the side of the case, like along the width of it.
