  • hoopajoo, on 04/15/2008, -8/+7I really like this! It looks like a smaller version of those pictures you get at Spencers Gifts, Gadzooks and RiffRaff. This one is better because it doesn't cost $80! Happily dugg!
    • citizenchan, on 04/15/2008, -1/+9Low-class for low bucks FTW!!
      • wedgemartin, on 04/15/2008, -0/+6Very. Who the hell hangs that kinda stuff in their trailer.. oops i mean homes.
    • moofer, on 04/15/2008, -0/+4That looked like my 3 year old built it. Hot glue? Nice. How did that thing sit flat against the wall? Oh, he didn't have it on a wall. Why didn't he center the picture in the frame? Why is it wrinkled? Why not crop the picture to the frame to eliminate the nasty uneven white strips on the side? I wouldn't trust this guy with making my oatmeal in the morning.
  • radexon, on 04/15/2008, -4/+3cool idea.. you can apply it for example to a flying saucer photo too :) or using RED LEDs to make evil eyes :D
    • pjisback, on 04/15/2008, -0/+4Yes, because having a picture of someone with red devil eyes hanging on the wall of your home screams high class.
    • Chompy, on 04/16/2008, -0/+1OK children, that's next week. Now, everyone get out your macaroni and construction paper..
  • metanrx2005, on 04/15/2008, -6/+4nice one !
  • Fenol, on 04/15/2008, -6/+3Really good one, I'll try to and make lots ot pics with lighters :)
  • ElAssoWipo, on 04/15/2008, -1/+29Next video: how to make that fish that sings when you pass by it.
  • timime, on 04/15/2008, -5/+2it`s a great idea.simple and cheap.good work,i`ll try it when i have the time.
  • Johntp, on 04/15/2008, -5/+4I like the way the beams project onto the road, they don't just glow bright.
  • maxxdigg, on 04/15/2008, -6/+3Wow! Cool lights!
  • o0JoeCool0o, on 04/15/2008, -1/+27Why wouldnt you buy the LEDS for 50 cents each at an electronics store instead of taking apart a bunch of 5-10 dollar flash lights?
    • mentol, on 04/15/2008, -1/+3more work for DIY projects means more fun :)
    • sexybobo, on 04/15/2008, -2/+1Or buy 100 of them for $10 off ebay so you have plenty for upcoming projects.
    • AngryIrishMan12, on 04/15/2008, -4/+1It looked like he those cigarette lighters with the little bulbs on the bottom for finding yourself some ash to smoke in the dark. Only run you about 2-3 bucks at a carryout.
  • bigfrenak, on 04/15/2008, -10/+1Stop whinging, it's a great video!!!
  • adminmatt, on 04/15/2008, -2/+20this is stupid
  • Nayson, on 04/15/2008, -2/+33Its as tacky as hell.
    • funkydude101, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Don't forget classy.
    • Nerfdude, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1this guy has a bright future as a souvenir manufacturer for Cracker Barrel.
  • fatbas202, on 04/15/2008, -1/+15how retarded.
  • Mr.Gone, on 04/15/2008, -9/+11I am going to pistol whip the next person that uses "hack" to describe something other than breaking into a computer system.
    • webbles, on 04/15/2008, -0/+9You are in some serious need of education as to the real meaning of that word. Read any real hacker magazine to understand it.

      I suggest 2600. http://www.2600.com/
      • Mr.Gone, on 04/15/2008, -1/+1And you are in some serious need of some vitamin Pistol-Whip!

        "Wack!"
    • Murfshay22, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Dude, I hacked my pen, so now I can replace the ink when it runs out!
      I'm no longer a victim of the big pen industry

      *hands over pistol*
      • Mr.Gone, on 04/15/2008, -1/+1"wack!"

        Hey! I just hacked this pistol so I can use it as a hand to hand weapon as opposed to just shooting projectiles!
  • cabooglio2, on 04/15/2008, -1/+26Alternate title: White Trash Crafts.
  • Timmaay, on 04/15/2008, -1/+10That looks dumb, who wants those bright LEDS shining in their face all the time, bet it's annoying.
  • usingpond, on 04/15/2008, -0/+15I think "Awesome" is stretching it a bit.
  • Spikito, on 04/15/2008, -0/+8Lets not sound too excited about our project or anything.
  • xeren, on 04/15/2008, -1/+13I think you're confusing the word "awesome" with "unawesome"
    • Nayson, on 04/19/2008, -0/+1confusing the word "awesome" with the word "*****" is probably more accurate. ;)
  • chrisbarr, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2Too bad the frame is larger than the picture! I also would have dimmed the LED's a bit, they look too bright.
  • HayString, on 04/15/2008, -0/+3I like how he assumes people just have a bunch of LED lighters laying around. I've never even seen one.
    I also like how the frame fits the picture.
  • ChromaVita, on 04/15/2008, -1/+2Is this seriously new to anybody?
  • ProjectGSX, on 04/15/2008, -0/+3Wow, now you too can make those really retarded pictures they sell in the mall.
  • AngryIrishMan12, on 04/15/2008, -3/+0Leave the little bulbs on for an hour or two and watch your simple artwork accidentally burn down your house...
  • shyla, on 04/15/2008, -1/+0does anyone smell burning?
  • voomfoo, on 04/15/2008, -0/+6Why the hell is this making front page. What the ***** happened to digg. I think that stay at home moms suddenly discovered the wonders of the internet.
    • oderdigg, on 04/15/2008, -1/+1***** yeah. WTF is up with Digg to have this ***** on the front page? I also agree with everyone that had the thought of, "why destroy something to get a .20$ LED?" They are like 1 million for every 20$ bill.
  • matthughes, on 04/15/2008, -0/+4convenient that he used leds from a lighter...that way it makes it easy to light that ugly P.O.S. on fire after you're done. i would immediately make fun of any of my friends that had that hanging in their house.
  • TheWeez, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Wow, worst EDU ever unless you're a junior high student, then it might be cool in your room.
  • DeadFox1, on 04/15/2008, -1/+2woah. that was *so* not worth the effort he put into it.
  • pir800, on 04/15/2008, -0/+3oh! so that's how they make those wacky realistic pictures!

    ...buried. LAME.
  • Whackly, on 04/15/2008, -0/+3Now If only I could make the cigars light up in my dogs playing poker poster and the sequins actually sparkle on my velvet Elivis I might be content enough to start cleaning up the discarded appliances on my lawn. Thanks digg!
  • jlee2081, on 04/15/2008, -0/+3Wow lights! How about getting a frame that fits the picture?
    • chinolofus, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1thats in the next tutorial. one step at a time my friend...one step at a time.
  • 1980Tim, on 04/15/2008, -0/+3 I would totally make one, if I lived in a trailer.
    • 4rp4n3t, on 04/15/2008, -1/+1You do. You did.
      • 1980Tim, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Dyslexic?
        • 4rp4n3t, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Yeah. I went to a great party. Dropped an F and spent the rest of the night shooting up heron.
          ;)
  • iancorey, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2I would have done something different with the lighters. In fact... I think I still will, FOOSH– buried.

    PS: the uneven whitespace around the image inside the frame really sold the *****, ***** effect.
  • Nerfdude, on 04/15/2008, -0/+3this is awesome. now instead of buying tacky garbage from kiosks at the mall, i can make it at home!
  • richizzle, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1This thread seemed to go from really psyched about the project to completely disgusted by the thought.

    Maybe try printing out the picture on that glossy paper to make it look a little more professional.
  • Gullop, on 04/15/2008, -0/+2Looks cheap and tacky.
  • timster, on 04/15/2008, -1/+1VERY NICE
  • Pooball, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1A4 != 8.5" x 11"
  • antdude, on 04/15/2008, -0/+1Light beams are pointing at the wrong angles.
