my opinion of modding is that it does´nt make the machine better!the important thing of the c64 is the hardware and not the "look" |

but it makes your machine something special among the special machines called c64.
And beauty is in the eye that sees 8)
Why shouldn't be the beauty only be on the screen? Why should not everybody see that you love your machine?
If people send me pics of their "modded" c64, i'll put a galery up on the church-page.

It doesnt make the computer better, thats clear. But it looks better... imagine you use the C64 every day with the same outfit. Isn´t it boring? |

I think it's odd, that, given the amount of internal modding a lot of people do, exterior modding is hardly known with the c64..
The first mod looks awesome.. |

I never painted a case. I'm completely inept with pain and it'd probably look heinous if I did... but my old 64C had flames on it, in the form of those sparkly stickers you sometimes find in packs of other, altogether useless, stickers. I cut them to smaller sizes (so as to not cover the keys and whatnot) and put them along the front and sides of it. I wish I had pictures, but I haven't seen that machine since 1994 and at the time I didn't think I was doing anything really unique to it.

actually my c64 was green but its broken so i have another one..there are only some stickers on it. but my next one (c64 II) will be green again.
tekgeist (a coder who was on mek+sym 2001) had a black c64 with a blue LED, kinda cool! |
