The Front Page

When you get a new PC, there is a lovely feeling, of having a band new device. As such, the last thing youwant to do is scratch it, and that is what lead me to theming my Macbook Pro 13..

There are a number sites out there, which provide themes for Apples, by which i mean transfers which you can put on the mac to individualise it. From the tattoo floral styles to the full on professional artwork. I plumped for http://www.istyles.com basically because of the choice available on the site, i was looking for something a little different, and i found it. the site offers a range of themes for not just macs, but other laptops and media players, again, matching transfers.. supurb!

This is the current theme i have on my mac.

Once i'd chosen the transfer, there is nothing different about the purchase procedure on the site, the usual range of services are available for payment, credit cards and paypal. the delivery address etc.

The site is based in the US, however has a currency convertor and does deliver to the UK, they quoted 12 days, but to be honest, the package turned up, in a do not bend container in 6 days, a wonderful delivery time.

The package is as i said delivered in an A3 sized envelope, so not something you are going to put through an envelope.
The actual purchase is essentially two transfers one for the back of the laptop and one for the keyboard, this is another great idea, because i put a lot of crap on the area of the keyboard my wrist stays on.

The application, is supposed to be the type of transfer which, if you want to remove at a later date, doesn't leave a gunky mess, i've not tried un-peeling the transfer yet, and will do when this one gets dirty. However the application was bubble free, essentially remember to do from the middle to the outside of the device.

Overall a great service, one i feel no hesitation in recommending, and you will get money off your next purchase as well. great way to get repeat custom..

Go on, pimp up your mac..
