Gelaskins: Totally Awesome MacBook Skins

Gelaskins, the company that makes sweet art skins for your iPod, is now also selling skins for your MacBook or MacBook Pros. Featuring more irreverent stuff like the infamous Flying Spaghetti Monster to masterpieces of art like Katsushika Hokusai's The Great Wave to contemporary artist Bob Dob's Rough Night Out (pictured above), they've got so many sweet designs it almost makes me wish I was an Apple fanboy with a MacBook. Almost. –Adam Frucci

I wonder if the Apple logo light on the lid will shine through after you apply the skin.

Do it yourself guys, use adhesive paper to design your own stuff in photoshop and then cut it out or print it.

the Apple logo will indeed go through and look kinda stupid if it isnt in a convenient spot on the back.

What i want to see (rather than just resizing the image) is that they make the pictures they use integrate with the glowing logo behind it... (e. the flying speghetti monster picture with Adam, maybe they could make the logo appear just above of on the point where finger touches noodily appendage)

Yay stickers. But none with unicorns or zombie kittens which makes me sad in my heart.

Huh, that's funny - I can play more games on my Mac than you can play on your PC (Boot Camp, Parallels + Mac OS X).

Doesn't matter anyway - that's what my 360 is for. I don't have time for games on my Mac - I'm too busy doing work on it.

Macs can play games but the library is severely limited. The only real game I have on my MacBook is World of Warcraft, which runs A-OK.

I tend be be a sticker remover as opposed to a sticker apply-er.

I'd rather my box un-stand out as a mystery machine.
(as opposed to that old van I had in my crime solving days.)

I don't get it. Why are Mario and Luigi going to jail? It looks pretty cool, but I think I'm missing something.
