Default Dyed Trackball Picture Gallery

The thread started by Azboricua is getting a little long (16 pages, and counting). It is here:

http://forums.crackberry.com/f52/my-...-works-130330/

So with all due respect, I'd like to start a new thread consisting mainly of pictures of the end product (dyed trackballs).

Please post questions and comments in the original thread, as I hope to keep this thread consisting of mainly pictures. Thanks.

Here are pictures of my efforts:

Green trackball (Kelly Green):





Light Green trackball (Yellow/Kelly Green):





Blue trackball (Evening Blue):





Purple trackball:





Fire Orange (Yellow/Scarlet):





So, let's show the others how nice dyed trackballs can be!

Yeah, but to try and offset some of them...

The theme I'm using is 8900 Replica theme.

The wallpaper image is from the movie Azumi, starring Aya Ueto.

I wonder if this can be done without taking the trackball out... OK I admit it, I'm afraid to disassemble this thing... But could it be done with a Q-tip?

i don't think it would be a good idea to use a q-tip and dye the ball that way. i know it's hard, but i would either remove the trackball all together or remove the ball from the whole trackball component.
