    I have to tell you that the pictures you are posting make it very difficult to see what's going on. Are you using a camera phone? If possible, you may want to consider another way of capturing these shots, it will help boost the traffic of your worklog greatly.

    Well, I finished this a while back but needed to get a working camera to take some pics. Then I almost lost the case due to the power supply catching fire. So here are some pics of the finished case.


    Just kidding thats my case.

    Here is the real Butterfly case.












    The white butterfly on the front lights up when I have power connected to it. I found it at store for use with a car cigarette lighter and installed one on my wife's computer. I cut the power down to 5v because at 12v it was too bright. I don't have it connected right now to a much smaller power supply because I only had a small one laying around and haven't gotten around to buying a new one.

    And believe it or not these pictures came from one of these
