Well, I got yelled at for my naivety by the slave driver (above). He says I was supposed to explain how Harlequin worked to you guys in the last post. Oh well, he seems to have done that...

Anyways, in case you guys are wondering, im pushing for some servo mounted lighting to draw pretty colors on the case (black bat symbol on a purple background maybe?)

Anyways, later on tonight im going to choose which (of 3) programs I set aside, and start teaching myself to code our crystalfontz!

Haha, now wouldn't that be a sight to show the family lol.

About your lighting issue. I am thinking white ultra bright LEDs in holders like the ones Crimson Sky built for his Doom 3 mod. You could than rig them up so they would spin with motors to cover different parts of the case or you could just build a relay that would make them dim on and dim off randomly, much like Christmas lights lol.

You are right... whatever could I have been thinking of?

How about if I beat the boy with mistletoe???

Santa's going to leave a lump of coal in your stocking this year.

You guys did an excellent job on that green paint job.

Hmm, my father killed the conversation again, so I brought pictures to shock it back to life. XD first of all, i'd like to apologise for updating so slowly, as some of you may remember, i'm in the process of getting CompTIA certified, and i've got to take the final test next week. Anyways, since you probably don't care and want to see pretty Harlequin paint jobs, i'll shut up and show you the parts we finally got back from the painter.

Note that this is NOT plain green my friends, see below!

Those two were both by me, I might add. As you can see, they are far superior to my fathers poor photogaphy skills!

Then, considering that unlike some people *cough* all of you *cough* we have lives and decided on some normal "money shots" to get the rest. Just kidding, we don't have lives either! XD

Then, just to show off the difference between our inside paint job and outside, we took another set of shots of the case panels.

As you can see, the one furthest right (or the top to those of you who know about computers ) is turned to show the gloss black exterior. The other two proudly display their Harlequin PPG coloration.
