Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Just wanted to say hello. I've never actually built a PC before altogether... but if I ever do, I'd like to make a neat custom job like you all seem to have here :-)
I'll be doing a lot of reading/lurking... and then flooding you with questions at some point. Thanks in advance for being kind!

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Hello everyone I've been building pcs for several (million) years and have ended up with the inevitable masses of spares and cases so I thought I would make use of them using them in older games and arcade sims then I thought why not mod a few of the cases too which brought me here I'll no doubt ask loads of questions that have been asked many times before but please be patient with me while I find my way around the board

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Hallo iedereen (= Dutch for hello everyone),
kinda new here, have been watching several of the high quality mods here for a while now and still got nagged about me not posting for the first time :).
First let me intorduce myself a bit. 28 Years old, single, live in the Netherlands, and i work at KLM as a Boeing 737 ground engineer. As a hobby I've been building and maintaining computers for quite some time now, just for the family (some people suggested i'd make it my profession, but I think i'd go crazy with all these people nagging about their computer problems) I do sometimes help friends solve small problems.
I've been "planning" or having ideas for a pc/case (watercooled) mod for a long long time (over 3 years) now, but i never got around building it due to
- Buying a house (which costs money)
- wrecking my bike (CBR600 F3 '97) Own stupid mistake (although the date on which it happened might have something to do with it: 6-6-2006, which makes 666 (for the not so numerical inclined among us: 666 ). Replacing it obviously also cost me money :rolleyes: O, in case you're wondering what the replacement is: CBR 600 F4i 2001
- a year later somebody drove into the back of my car totally wrecking it. (Still haven't replaced it)
I took me a while to get my financial things back in order again, so i am proud to announce, this project will DEFINITELY start this year, even if i have to start on New Years eve!! :). How's that for a vague timeschedule :smoker:
Greetings.....Martin

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Hi everyone, I've been lurking around here for a few weeks and reading about the amazing work and effort that has gone into building some of these awesome machines and decided it's time to join as I will be starting a new project which I would like to share on here as soon as some parts arrive.
I've built quite a few PC's before but only standard types, I've not attempted a complete custom build from scratch including building the case, I've got some ideas but if/how they will work I don't know yet so I will probably be shouting for some help soon;)
I'm a motor mechanic by trade (but no longer do it for a job) and motorcycles are my passion but I can't build bikes at the moment because I don't have a garage or even a small shed to use and as I get bored when I'm not making something I thought I would have a go at a PC build in the kitchen:rolleyes:
A little taster....it's probably going to be called "Paranoid" and there will be screens and cameras8)
Anyone interested in bikes my site is here
I hope to be back soon,
cheers, Beta-brain.

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
beta-brain, you should check out the motor mod wich was done with alot of acrylic and watercooling:) i dont remember the name of it but someone do:D i am sure of it:)
and welcome aboard all:)

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Ello people.
Dunno what to say, hhhmmm. Well, planning on posting a few pics of my current system later, see if anyone has any ideas. Its the fifth case I have owned, It evolved from my Pentium 75, its like a broom with 4 new heads and 5 new handles, hard to tell when it stops being one computer and starts being the next. No original parts....

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Hello everybody
I've been digging through the worklogs here for quite a while and I'm just fascinated about the stuff thats going on.
As I've beed interested in modding for a long time and I recently started another project I got registered an I'm looking foreward to opening my own worklog. :D

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Well like many others this here is my first post. :bunny: So Hi all.
I am an extreme noob at all this building/ modding. Been a lurker here for (yikes) almost a year. Sorry I haven't said hi before. :redface:
Built my first system late last year (Antec 900) and saw posts all over the net about cabling mods. Found this site and Paul's (Crimson Sky's) guide on how to paint cases, so I decided to watch and read. Bought Paul's book. Really excellent read. Loved it.
Have started painting the inside of the case, all basic stuff so far. Fingerprints everywhere :( but I'm learning to leave the parts to dry before re-assembling. lol.
Am thinking of taking on something more adventurous next. So will no doubt be posting questions. I'll say sorry in advance.
Once again Hi everyone.

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
That's ok, everybody asks questions.

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Hi noobs, I've not been here long myself and still finding stuff to read and checkout, have a look in the "ModWiki" and "TBCS TV" if you've not already done so, some good info in there.
Cheers, Beta-brain.

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Greetings and well met. I've been lurking 'round here for a couple years (ever since the Doom 3 mod) but never gotten round to posting. I've posted a bit here and there now and have been come to frequent the forums daily.
I built my first computer back in '94 when my 'rents gave me a 25mhz 286 that couldn't even hold Windows 3.1 and Word at the same time (remember the days of the 20 MB hard drives :dead:).
Anyway... i currently have the pieces of my next computer sitting on my dinning room table waiting for me to assemble. I also have in the plans a HTPC and a small mod for a game server. I just lack the place to build them. Need to clean out a shed so my wife doesn't kill me for running the dremel in the house :redface:.
I love this community and this website. There is a lot of creativity and expertise haunting these forums. I hope that my future projects live up to TBCS standards :bowdown:.
One question... how do i get an avatar or a flag next to my name?
Cheers and happy modding.

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Hey guys, this is my first post here, Although I'm a frequent forum user (tlzone.net and x-h2o.com). I've been into cmoputers since a young age (although I'm still only 24). I've built my own system from the ground up and have added little tweaks here and there, the latest being my Thermaltake Armor case.
I joined mainly due to seeing Motorized Madness on mod-shop.net and then checking out his build threads here.
I have a mod of my own planned, just saving up cash to get the materials needed. Its going to be a Media Center PC, and to hlep it "blend in" to the living room, will be housed in self-made guitar PC case constructed of carbon fiber and acrylic. More on that when the build thread starts.
So, HELLO!

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
A note to all new members:
If you've done any kind of PC mod or have a nice set-up share some pics! It's a great way for all of us to gauge your current abilities. And unlike other forums, here at TBCS you will not be ridiculed for being new and/or having little experience. I came into PC forums 8 years ago looking for help on replacing my computer's intake fan and know how harsh some places can be.

The truth has been spoken. We are open to anything, and I do mean that (as long as it is not dangerous or breaks the law). Even cardboard is a legitimate case material (see my sig project BOX).

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
TGS made me come here, seriously.... He threatened to have my first born turned into a pc. So here i am learning hwo to do it on my own lol. Anywho, I have been in computer sales about 9 years, building my own rigs for a few years with help from people ( tgs <3 ). Im hoping to start real modding outside of building it so here i am. /poke

Fire's not dangerous, right? Right?
Oh. Well, damn. Guess I won't try that.
:D
Anyway, welcome aboard Notyab (and all before him)! Anyone invited here by TGS has to be worth watching.

Re: New Members' Introductory Thread
Hi my interest to join here is because I want to get myself acquainted with sufficient knowledge in working with photos in Photoshop. Practically I am a novice who has just commenced work in this field and want to expand the techniques in which I can produce work thats loved by everyone. There are a lot of things on my mind but before I can do that I need to know a lot about how to go about things in this specific software. Hope to get all the help and support that I need.
