Calculator tunning !
« on: February 09, 2013, 06:34:15 pm »
Hey guys,

People from TI-Planet already know, I like to relook my calculators  ^-^
But in the french community, nobody cares :P
Excepted KermMartian with his two "ultimate calculators", I don't know anybody who has a beautiful tunned calc...

Is anyone there with an artist talent ?

The TI-83 Plus one looks amazing!
I have some artistic talent; I wonder how this is done though. 
The CX CAS one is also extremely cool.  The gold/black looks awesome.

Darn those look great! (Especially the 1st). I am surprised the French community doesn't care considering back in 2001-05 that was where calc tuning was the most popular, especially on yAronet. Most sites at that time had a section about tuning.

Also in the English community, a lot of people tuned their Casio PRIZM because there was a free Skinit promotion, but it only involved designing a computer image then putting a sticker on the calc

I do care, I watched your "Golder editions" and noticed that the word "Golden" was mispelled :P

It looks pretty good, but not very professional... I'd say my favorite one is the 84+.
This reminds me my friends putting some correcting liquid on their 83+s and then coloring it with a pen. XD After a while, it looks crappy and becomes dirty.

it was to make an analogy with "Silver Edition" !

your Prizm looks great, DJ_O !

Yes, stickers seems to be "more professional" than painting.
Epic7, and others, post photos if you make something cool !

How do you do these? These are so cool
If you want to see, I made the 84+ yesterday on TCAP (french visioconference about calcs on saturday evenings.).
The next week, I will paint a TI 83, come and see !

Thanks :D, and now that I remember it, I forgot that I also did some tuning on my first 83+ back in Feb 2003 or so. It still uses a sticker but the sticker was home-made, with the drawing on it drawn by hand:



Due to being Early 2003 stuff, it still uses the September 2002 Omnimaga logo at the top, but I also use the new logo as well, kinda, below. The unfortunate thing is that this is the calc that now has a broken link port. D:

Hate to derail this thread, but I have no idea how tuning is being taken to mean skinning or such. Anyone care to explain?

In the French TI community, it was a very common slang word used for calculator customizing that involves painting your calculator. Kinda in the same fashion as car tuning.

you don't need to remove the screws to make something great (I did not to make the 84+, DJ_O too for his 83+ :P ).
In addition, it would lose the collateral.

(Oh, please excuse if "tuning" is not the good word... How would you say ?)
