I was complaining to my coworker/friend that i sit level with my mixamp so sometimes I can't tell where the volume level is at. He measured the mixamp knobs and made me these peace decals. I think its great to personalize it as well so that you know who's is who's when you go to tournaments.

and no...unfortunately it doesn't make my mixamp perform any better. lol.

Pogue Colonel: Marine, what is that button on your body armor?
Private Joker: A peace symbol, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Where'd you get it?
Private Joker: I don't remember, sir.
Pogue Colonel: What is that you've got written on your helmet?
Private Joker: "Born to Kill", sir.
Pogue Colonel: You write "Born to Kill" on your helmet and you wear a peace button. What's that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?
Private Joker: No, sir.
Pogue Colonel: You'd better get your head and your ass wired together, or I will take a giant **** on you.
Private Joker: Yes, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Now answer my question or you'll be standing tall before the man.
Private Joker: I think I was trying to suggest something about the duality of man, sir.
Pogue Colonel: The what?
Private Joker: The duality of man. The Jungian thing, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Whose side are you on, son?
Private Joker: Our side, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Don't you love your country?
Private Joker: Yes, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Then how about getting with the program? Why don't you jump on the team and come on in for the big win?
Private Joker: Yes, sir.
Pogue Colonel: Son, all I've ever asked of my marines is that they obey my orders as they would the word of God. We are here to help the Vietnamese, because inside every **** there is an American trying to get out. It's a hardball world, son. We've gotta keep our heads until this peace craze blows over.
Private Joker: Aye-aye, sir.

I'd buy that for a dollar. Hell yeah, that movie rocks. I think Mother was the weirdest one of them all. My favorite part is where Hartman was drilling Pvt. Cowboy. That part has me rollin' every time. :D

thanks for the feedback guys!

The full metal jacket reference is exactly what I was going for when I had my screen name in mind lol.
I just talked to my friend about making more, he said "give me some designs and we'll see if it'll work." and I'm not an original person...so I'm fresh out of ideas lol. But he's a designer so I'm sure he can think of something. Any ideas?

5 colors on that, not sure if it would look right in 2 color, pacman might end up looking like a pie chart when you turn up the volume.

Here's a sample of what I mocked up

Ladies and gentlemen, my good friend and coworker...daewootech. lol he's the one that did the measuring and cutting and pretty much the everything. heh.

I saw you working on that earlier today too, they came out pretty good, especially the pac-man one. See! We were both like "i don't know how that'll look...pac-man? hmmm..." but somehow you made it work. damn you...why do you have to be so good?
