Gelaskins is known as a producer of cool skin for iPods, but a month ago they announced a collection of especially designed laptop skins. Well, the news is that Gelaskins is adding new covers to their customized Laptop skins collection.

This should turn not half bad for the legions of laptop users that cry every time they discover new scratches on the case of their laptops. It's not always easy to find a nice laptop cover, right?

If you don't like ordinary covers, you're probably going to love the creative designs that Gelaskins has to offer. They're absolutely beautiful. Here you go. There's a huge variety of covers you can choose from. First, there's Hokusai's "Great Wave of Kanagawa" (pictured), er, definitely a good choice if you're thinking to surf the web even when you're not online. For the Nintendo nostalgics there's one made by a designer called Bob Dob, showing bored to death Super Mario twins. There's also a half naked chick with languorous eyes, a smoking hobo, lots of oil painting "reproductions" and also some neat "digital photos".

The Laptop skins are made from high quality material (vinyl that is). All the covers come with a removable adhesive backing making them easy to remove and clean once you observe changes in their natural color. They can also be easily pilled without leaving any stains behind. Just keep them and dry!

It would've been nicer if Gelaskins allowed you to submit your own design. I'm positive they will consider this option. Each skin comes in 5 different sizes, so there shouldn't be any compatibility problems. They're not really cheap at 32,95$, but that's not that bad considering your laptop is actually an extension of your body.
