THE MANIFESTO IS MUTATING! IT IS TURNING INTO A WIKI THAT CAN BECOME THE HIVE MIND OF ALL COSTUMERS, FINALLY LIVING UP TO IT'S SLOGAN: "COSTUMERS OF THE WORLD, UNITE!" YOU CAN HELP IN THIS PROCESS BY MOVING PAGES TO THE NEW SITE AT THECOSTUMERSMANIFESTO.COM, HELPING TO EDIT THE PAGES THAT ARE THERE ALREADY, AND ADDING YOUR OWN ORIGINAL INPUT.

Alaska Tech Wizard to custom make my new video-editing PC to be prepared for "modding" as the kids call it. He helped get me started by building it in a case that looks a bit like an art deco jukebox:

It has a color-shifting glow-front panel that cycles through the spectrum, and a start button that looks like a giant blue glowing rhinestone. It also came with a side window, and he installed a UV light so I could put glow in the dark bits inside to make it look even more fun. | align="center" valign="top" |Google |- | align="left" valign="top" |

So I put every thing inside possible that might make it glow, including UV sensitive poster board linings, UV paint, some springy spiral key ring plastic to wrap the smaller wires, and bits of laser Mylar tape to the non conductive surfaces. I also put in a crystal plastic "disco ball", and after the picture below was taken I added glowing device cables, a second UV light, and a crystal beaded fringe on the inside top of the window.

I then painted the side panels (taking them outside) using Testers model spray paint in a subtle Blue and Violet metallic swirl. Then I detailed the panels, including the top, with stick-on laser Mylar papers, rhinestones, and a little bit of nail polish.

[[PICT0026| ]] Here you can see some more changes, including crystal beaded fringe inside.

The top (shown) is almost entirely covered in laser Mylar. The left side panel (not shown) has a series of mylar strips decorating it, and a fringe of more blue crystal beads.
