Umm you have no life. Unless you got paid for it :D

Anyway, it looks pretty good, I like it. I wouldve made it more of halo 2's colors though, like orange and green.

Good job, though like Brianv said, Halo 2 colors might have looked better. Also, the straight edge where you painted the H2 logo silver looks a little odd.

XD, lets see you cut out a Halo 2 symbol with an exacto knife! theres a lot more put into it than u think!, even the emblem under the XBox jhewl besides , the color scheme goes with the persons Halo 2 Emblem, that u see under the XBox jhewl .... you cant say jhewl normally cuz it counts as a swear, :? ,whatever..

heres better screenshots of it..

Looks like it needs a couple more coats of clear...flat (as in color) paint on a bumpy surface equals disaster. The color scheme itself could also use some work. I also notice some small masking errors one above the third controller port that could be sanded down and touched up. Looks great for a do-it-yourself project but when it comes to paintjobs I'm a perfectionist. Although I do have to say thats some nice work on the emblem, turned out great :D

J e w e l? a swear? What the heck was going through the admins' minds!? Someone tell me why they censor that.

It's because of the first three letters of the word. Although we can say Christian or Muslim. >_>

But the case mod is pretty sweet.

Wow. That's odd. They could just filter "Jew" and not the whole word "jewel"

If part of the word is censored, the whole word is censored.

For instance, if banana was censored, then if I typed bananaejwiofiwejhf, the whole word would be replaced by ****.

Which means j e w i s h is censored too...

Which means that you just censor bypassed.

I could really care less. That doesn't change the fact that it looks poorly-made.

I meant just censor the word "jew", which is already censored, and leave "jewel" uncensored, because censoring it is pointless.

It doesnt look bad. I think some one should give him credit for taking those hours to make it. And being creative.

Flying Spartan, you need to chill. Just because somebody doesn't like it doesn't mean you have to go and act like you're way better than they are. Personally, I wouldn't have that in my living room. It's not for everybody. Just chill and take feedback for what it's worth. It's your call how you take it. Therefore, if you get offended, it's your own fault.


I move to have this topic locked. Anybody second that motion?
