I know it sounds wierd, but How did you make the decals for the front?
How did you get them to stick?
I've been wanting to do this for my SNES, but been too lazy to get on the computer and make them.

For the decals I put some thin paper-like plastic in my printer and printed the decals out, then I cut them out. My dad works for 3M so I have just about any adhesive at my disposle. What I used was the 3M photomount, the stuff is really sticky and glues flat withought spots soaking through. It comes in a can.
Hope this helps!!

It wants 3 (I'm assuming) because you diffuse the light anyways, so it's a waste of valuable power!
Hey, sup?

no it wouldn't, the light gets diffused as Kurt_ said. Plus, the CCFL is in a U shape.

Yeah, the original light is like a square "U", so there are three channels that the light goes down. You'd understand instantly if you've ever opened up a PSOne screen.

My only suggestion would be to put the controller connector in the case because the ribbon connector that connects it can be fragile. Other than that it looks great.
