That may be problematic because Giger's stuff is copyrighted.

Best Giger style skin I ever saw was for Sonique.

Nothing like that for WindowBlinds etc though that I know of.

well yea, it is copyright, but creating something like that... i dont think it would fall under infringement... its not like its being sold. and it isnt like anyone is stealing anything from me, or hurting his cashflow in anyway

Using Giger's artwork, in whole or in part violates his copyright.

Commercial considerations have no bearing what-so-ever.

what i really want (and if someone could tell me where i could find it, or they had the skills to do one) is a object dock that looks like the alien hive and such. i cant find one anywhere. if someone does a fabrication then i will make you one of my elementaly-based signatures.
these are some of my stuff... the zyzsgy one was a picture of a universe, duztid was a big flame spiral, and manhattan herps was a munson burner flame
