honestly it's not hard at all. just be careful and don't put too much pressure on the screen.

i was thinking about using red also, but i thought it may look too pink since i left the white piece in.

Really, I doubt it... a white sheet can't exactly "tint" the red is at the top, right?

Correct me if I'm wrong, I always thought that having it like that wouldn't do anything.

yeah it would probably work fine. i may try it one day, who knows. i'd prefer the blue though probably anyways.

What I did to mine is remove that white sheet underneath. Makes the Apple logo MUCH brighter instead of diffusing it which is what that does. I thought about doing the vintage logo, but Im far too lazy for that at the moment. Looks good though Stevo, I thought you slapped a Fruit Roll Up on there for a minute though :laugh:

The vintage logo is done with one of the old stickers that used to come with Macs before they switched to the monochrome logo.

looks great! i wasnt sure how a blue light would look, but it actually really works well with the Aqua theme in Mac OS X.

A few other readers were commenting on haveing different coloured lights in their *books. i know a site ( here ) which has pictures of many different Mac customisations. a pretty nice site :p

a more direct URL is here

      I hate Slack, but Teams is much worse - maybe they've already optimized it, but it was a huge slog the last time I've checked about half a year ago. I miss my Skype.
