im cheap and dont like to spend money on much of anything..so with my one light i wanted more light so i did this to the botom and behind the light..i took aluminum foil and scotch tape and taped the foil to the bottom of my case...im planning to do the whole case besides behind the motherboard like this

here are two pictures one dark on light of the little i guess "mod"

let me know if i should continue to do this to the whole case..and next month comees the window mod for my case... smile.gif

note my camera kinda sucks if my brother would let me use hes ill get some better pics..it looks nice in person...hopefully he'll let me use his

dude, you can buy bright dual ccfl kits for like $6 i swear...

is it a UV one?
jammin
withstupid.gif.. yeah, plus a mirror would look alot better. I personally think that foil cheapens the look of the case.
webx
mine is bright..and i was supposed to have dual but had to RMA one of them..and i just wanted that one to get bright..and NEVER RMA AT CASE-MOD.COM...ITS BEEN A MONTH

withstupid.gif Cut a piece of plexi to fit, paint it black on one side, put it in the case paint side down. Works well.

yes its UV..and i dont have money to spend on plexi..or find a mirror that'll fit that...
jammin
Fair enough.. i would just take that foil out unless you are really attached to it. You must be broke if you can't afford a few square feet of plexi.
webx
yes im broke atm..i should be getting a client if he goes through with it..for $300 for a web site...so when and if...most likely not tho just like all other "possible clients..im going to just buy another 2 light set..and take foil out..an then get my window mod..i will never part with the gateway case..unless i get enough money to build another rig :\...but the foil does actually look good in person..i have it all smooth and it reflects the light perfect..but if u say it looks too cheap i can take it out
jammin
If you are happy with it and it actually looks good, then don't listen to me. I can't see it in person and its ultimiately your decision.

broken glass work really good you just need a piece big enough. you can cut it your self with a cristal.

if u want more light just sit a flashlight with what ever color bulb u like and turn off and on as nessary .lol.
