I made a small improvement to my sunglasses.



Was planning to paint, but I wasn't sure how well paint would adhere to the hardened plastic (technically "Triloidtm Nylon") frames. Ended up printing a pic on glossy photo paper, turning it into a sticker with a Xyron Sticker Maker*, giving it a couple of clear protective coats, cutting out the two logos (one for each side), and then sticking them in place. Not quite as sleek as the painted-on look, and I'm not sure how long it'll really last, but for now, I'm happy. And, not wanting to waste too much of a 4x6 shet, I've got plenty of replacements available if I need them...

*Mine is the same model, but the casing is clear and the branding is from the Discovery Channel, not Tomy Cella, whatever that is.

Haha, you look like Micheal Rosenbaum!

Nice :)

(and I have to say that the second pic is too cool - the angle is awesome (and, yeah, I know, probably very random)... although I'd like to see at least a little smile, you know ;))

hehehehe! Very cook, my friend! Very cool!

Almost sad you didn't have 'em done like that when we went into Grand Central Station. *lol*
