- aekdbbop, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3the only reason why i did it was becuse i hate the look of smudges and finger prints on the back.. this took care of it pretty well, and took 0 time.
- aekdbbop, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2For all you who are thinking of doing this... keep in mind that it DOES NOT void your warranty from apple.
- p3ngu1n, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It's actually uber easy and looks GREAT. just did it and it took me like 15-20 mins.

- markyello, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0screw it, i'm IN!
- isdereks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i've decided im going to do this. nothing to lose. my girlfriend beat scratched the sh** out of my ipod anyway.
- aekdbbop, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I also had a skin for my iPod, but i didnt like the size of the iPod after the skin was on it. I know it wasnt that much bigger, but it was harder to fit in my pockets. So i took the skin off and did this to it. This mod is going to be on The Screen Savers tonight! tune in! haha...
- dbcoder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Indeed, a very awesome "mod". I wish the Dell DJ had a shiny back so I could do this.
- SirSam, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I wouldn't do it to my 4G pod, but Im thinking about it for my 1G... its been through it and back!
- mbeck145, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0just did it, a great mod
- traicer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0lol ohh well
- Debbie, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Why not just buy a case for the ipod. I have a nice leather one, cost about 24.00, well worth the investment.
- shawnblog, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0mrkamil, how did you get that laser etching on your ipod? Is there a service that does this?
- p3ngu1n, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0No, you can still read the text easily. It is laser etched, so it doesn't go away.
- mrkamil, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0hmm, would this make me loose my text?
my ipod has pretty much the best pick up line ever on it and i wouldn't wanna lose it. - ik0n, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0traicer: I was wondering the same thing. Looks like digg isn't into allowing freedom of opinions and speech. Damn censorship! Check out http://911research.wtc7.net/mirrors/guardian/Pentagon/what-hit-it.htm - it will give you a bunch of info that's similar to what was in the video.
- traicer, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1hey anyone know what happen to that link to the video talking about the 9-11 and the pentagon?
- CUBApete, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0cool look, but i would never do it to my ipod :)
- aekdbbop, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Well, if you order your iPod online from apple, they offer laser etching for your player. I am pretty sure its free and can contain a few lines of text with 12 characters each line. I think..
- aekdbbop, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Please Make me feel special and actually visit the main site and boost my counter while you are there... haha.. i should have made the link just point to my homepage.. oh well... glad you all enjoy this..
- Axim, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0Wow, easily a +0 useful post bud
Great idea, and yes a tutorial was clearly needed as A) noone had thought of this before B) alot of people might use the wrong sponge C) people might try to scratch it in opposing directions screwing it up.
