Dam straight thread jacker!!!1 lol
The case looks very usable, front and read fans are a must. At lease your case wasn't used as a dog kennel like mine

You need to use some car putty to make some crazy shapes, like a building from Far Cry 2 or something.

Or go full hog and grab some PVC piping and turn it into a model of a 30mm anti-materiel sniper rifle! The case could be the rifle's receiver.

the point of painting the case instead of buying one is cause i don't have any cash

i have started painting the test drive... looks ok so far...
[edit] still going well, the drive is nice and shiny. [/edit]

I have just painted the last piece. Only have to wait for it all to dry and i can start the operation

Fix that dent in the side, or will it be in a place where no one will see it anyway?

I'd have suggested buying a cheap CM case before spending money on paint - you should mod functional cases... not really worth it otherwise.

that dent is where you grab it to pull the side off

Hey, I was just thinking that I would love to see someone rig a box fan into the side of their PC case.

Can you say 'superior cooling'?

I am thinking that the case should be made of slats with foam filters to allow air to come in, and the box fan should actually be pushing air out of the case. The effect would basically be cross-ventilation.

Been done before, it's just a bunch of wank. You lose all air pressure and it makes a dog of a noise.

Awwwww

EDIT: Wait, the thing actually exists in commercial form! It's called an AeroCool AeroRacer case, and the fan on the side runs at 12db at 400rpm and moves 250cfm. Were you thinking about this case?
