It's really easy to make Cowgirl, just google "cowboys pattern" or some such, find a pattern in images you like and save the picture. Then go to mytego.com/ and set up a design. Just takes a minute or two.  I'm not clever but my daughter is...I'll put her right on this....Thanks |

I just went to their website and even I was able to do it. Very Cool. I found a great Dick and Jane pattern that I saved. Now I have to decide if I want that one or a cowgirl print I found. The choices are endless.

I found it under "Featured Artists" and fell in love. Peacocks are a favorite subject of mine.

Well, actually I just designed it on mytego.com/ but I think it's pretty cool. That is the coolest thing, I am going to try it although I am far from computer savy. Linda |

As a fan of many things that are "icky", I may make a skin out of a pic I took in the Catecombs of Paris - popular tourist attraction, not some creepy destination. Well, it is creepy, but... I may only get the front done since Skinderella is in a cover, and it's twice the price. Then again, I may not get this at all since these are real skulls and that's even a little creepy to me. I'm gonna think about it. But for those who may like the "icky", too, I wanted to post. If I get it, I'm gonna edit the pic so the missing screen part can be posted in Jim's thread and he can make a scrnsvr for me if he would be so kind. But if someone else wants, I can post the pic so you can do with it what you want. make it different dimensions, make the back part too, edit to fit as a scrnsvr, etc.  I am trying other pics, like purty art, and purty stained glass windows, but Tego isn't allowing me to upload more pics even after deleting and clearing on those pages. I'm not ALL about the icky. |

What she said. It is great. I love how you have the peacock's head right in the middle of the keyboard. Very creative! Marci |

To those who bought one.... when it comes, could you let us know if the back comes in more than on piece? I emailed mytego about it weeks ago and haven't heard back from them. If it's one piece there will be no way to reset (if needed) the kindle without ruining the skin. Not sure I want to chance it.

It LOOKED like it is 2 pieces, one for the battery cover and one for the outside. It'll be a couple of weeks before it gets here if I read the manufacturing and shipping times right. I'm a bit skeptical about how well it will stick to the rubberized coating of the battery cover, I almost didn't order the back at all. What she said. It is great. I love how you have the peacock's head right in the middle of the keyboard.
Getting it lined up just right took a bit of work, but the controls are really easy to use, you can re-size the image, which I did so that the entire peacock head and crest showed up, and move it around so that you get just the right part of the image. I tried a couple of others that weren't symmetrical, and got several different possibilities from each one. It was fun playing with it, and I wish I had something cool like Kat's pic to upload, I'm going to have to keep this in mind when looking for photo ops in the future. Katiekat |

See, to me it looks like one piece, not two. I've ordered cell phone skins from mytego before, and the ones i ordered before, it was very clear that they were multiple pieces, as there were lines separating where the battery was from the rest of the phone. I guess it's just a wait and see sort of thing at this point. |

So weird, I just scanned this image from a set of vintage prints I bought! It must be a default setting. I wanted to know how the quality is, if anyone has gotten theirs. Also the back does not seem to allow for the battery? |
