    I was thinking more of what you're trying to build, not for what purpose.

    He's converting an old computer to look like a war radio with the help of the world's tiniest man and his tiny camera.

    I'm not familiar with that phrase. What is a war radio? A field telephone? Wikipedia and Google haven't been much help, maybe because I don't know what I'm supposed to look for.

    Thats just what i named it, it's going to look like a WW2 field command station. something along the lines as this: <a href="http://www.antiqueradio.com/images/Jan07-AWA-military.jpg" target="_blank">http://www.antiqueradio.com/images/Jan07-AWA-military.jpg</a>

    Bonus points if you get someone to crank those handlebars while you're using it.

    Then what's going to make it a case mode rather than a re-paint?

    The thumbnails are nice, but you may want to have them link to higher-resolution pictures. It's difficult to make out anything on the thumbnails.

    I think that if you go <!--c1--><div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'><!--ec1-->[url=urltolargerpicturegoeshere][img]urltothumbnailgoeshere[/img][/url]<!--c2--></div><!--ec2--> it should work. If not, just place a link to the larger picture directly below the thumbnail, that's guaranteed to work.

    I think it looks pretty cool. Add some camo netting at the end.

    i wanted a pressure gauge and two handles on top but it was too late and i could not find any gauges that would fit on the front.
