I found this gorgeous keyboard photo by member Taeyoung

And I love that keyboard cover so very much!  Where can I possibly find one like it?  I'm surprised there aren't group buys for such covers.

(And that Cherry branded spacebar is nice too)

You can make one for yourself pretty easily.  Just go out and buy a piece of acrylic in a color that you like, then follow one of these guides:

One of my friends here on Brazil made this one:

And guess what? We got an order from Cooler Master and sold these for two CM Storm Triggers and two CM Storm Sirus headsets.

From what I've heard, Carter uses that black one.

Wow, those look amazing!

I know you can get these cases from EK, but they're a bit pricey imo.
