Pics of the dyed keys...

Yes, I know...there's something wrong with me.  Really, really wrong.













So, that's what it looks like now.  :-)  I'm pretty happy, although if I did it again, I'd probably go with a brighter pink so the grey keys aren't quite so mauve.  Oh well, I'm happy.

Cool! I didn't know you could dye plastic. Could you overdye them to get a richer color?

This post is full of win!

you are a geek.

That is surprisingly cool.

That is pretty cool. Did you put the keys back where they came from or did you jumble them up to confuse non touch typists.

The most hardware customization iv done was take a can of flat black krylon to the case so it wasn't plain beige. This was on a stell case though so I could take the side panels and top outside for the painting.

you think it'll work on my wireless keyboard keys???

John is going to kill me....hehehehehehe...I'm totally blaming this on you!!! *squeee!*
*happy dance*

do you think the brighter colour will rub off, or will it work as well as the lighter colour?

I didn't even know RIT would stain plastic.

That is so pretty!

That's so cool! Kudos for the great idea and thanks for sharing! I had no idea you could do that. I have a similar keyboard, and it is drab, drab, drab. I love the idea of jazzing it up with color! Hmm, makes me wonder what else I could pretty up, too. Life's too short, so I like to add more beauty and joy wherever I can!
