Hey everyone....I just came across some awesome images of a skinned E-book on flickr. Apparently mytego.com makes custom skins (not stickers), that not only make your device look great, will add protection from scratching and water. Mytego makes it possible for customers to personalize their readers by uploading their own images/photos. Check out these pictures and the site www.mytego.com!!

P.S. Let me know what you think

That looks rather neat. I wonder what the edges look like, though. If they look too much like a sticker.

This looks cool. I just ordered one for my iPod Nano.

I wish they made them for Kindle. I'm personally not a fan of the white case color. I have something similar for my laptop and love it. I like the look, but it also keeps it from getting scratched.

They make skins for a Kindle. Check the Amazon site.

I didn't like the look of the silicone ones very much.

Cool. Post an update when you get it :)

It would be nice to personalise my Cybook a little and keep it from getting scratched - I mostly use it at home, so I don't bother with a case.

You're a brave man :).

Weeell... last I checked, I had female genitalia as well as female gender identification ;)

But 's fine :p Difficult to tell from a user name.

I'm not very accident prone, and I like it's so light and easy to hold. Besides, the cover makes it difficult to push the button.

No. 2, then 3. I like all the little details in no. 3.

Definitely not no. 4, and while no. 1 is a very pretty photo, I feel it's a little uninspired to choose a 'nice' photo like that.

The skin I ordered for my iPod Nano arrived today. Putting the back piece on was a little difficult because there are no landmarks (like on the front) and it was hard getting it even on the sides. Here are the pics.

Cool! I want one without the big brand name in the middle though.

The brand name comes off, it was really just a place holder. You can see in the last picture, that the Nano screen is where the Tego logo was. :)
