Skins are a great way to personalize your mobile phone, iPod, laptop, or PSP without breaking the bank. These customizable vinyl stickers are reusable and perfect holiday gifts for those of us on a budget this year. Instead of tricking out her mobile with Swarovski crystals, opt for inexpensive funky covers that will dress and protect her gear.

Personalized Gear

SkinIt has vinyl covers for most electronic devices ranging from laptops to gaming consoles. Search through their graphic library to customize any skin or upload your favorite family photo with the help of their new photo tool. All you need is a great photo in a two megapixel resolution.

From Silver To Beautiful

Most skins are reusable so if you get tried of the same design simply remove it, and save it for later. SKYN's glossy monogrammed vinyl covers are available in most colors, and now you have the option of adding Swarovski crystals letters in your favorite color. SKYN covers fit most laptops between 12-15 inches. They're skintastic!

Funky Armor for Your iPod

I'm a big fan of Simone Legno's Japanese inspired designs, so I was really excited to hear iSkin Vibes now offers eight funky Tokidoki cases for the new iPod video. These silicone sleeves consist of an iSkin Si ("silicone inside") layer combined with a solid outer layer for extra protection. They've added a RevoClip2 belt clip on the backside, so you can clip it to your backpack or jeans. Each skin retails for about $29.99, and made to fit the 30GB iPod with video.

You can pretty much dress up any gadget with skins. Check out these related links:
