Also, rotate the panel.  The wires should be coming out the bottom, not the left side.

I like how they used to include records and manuals to teach the buyer to play a monophonic instrument that's less than 2 octaves.  If someone can't play a melody on a stylophone right out of the box, then they probably will never be able to play anything.

What's the difference between the green boxed one and the pink boxed one?

Pink box is the original design (first produced in 1968). Had some variations over time.
Green one is reissue deisgn from 2007 (i think). Has more features (3 sounds, audio input) and similar sound but completelly different circuity.

Gotcha.  I have the one in the green box and I think I bought it in like 2008ish so that seems like the right time.  I thought the original one came in a white box.  I'd never seen the pink box before.

Did you get all the stick residue off of that corner of the LCD?

That looks totally awesome. How did you get white silicon pads for the buttons? My d-pad silicons are always green. I had one white one but I don't know where it came from.

I know, I wish the d-pad silicone pad was always white as well.  I'd use clear buttons on all my DMGs if that were the case.

its a dumb move to post here or anywhere if you only want 'positive feedback'. No offence, but if you just want back pats you should just send to family members or friends that would feel too awkward telling you it needs work........ if the site looks cheesey then people here are gonna say so.  I dont wanna shit on anyones cornflakes - but come on, the first impressions of a site are the most vital, if it looks like its not taking itself seriously then no one is gonna take it seriously.

I'm sure constructive criticism is accepted gladly but some people were being straight negative.  "Dogshit dildo" might be a hilarious phrase but the site isn't that bad.

Also, you might want to google dmg screen replacement before someone like saskrotch attacks you.

Did you remove anything from the backlight panel?

Isn't the transportation system so good in all of Europe that you can be in any part and still have easy access to anywhere else making all of Europe feel as if it's one country?  This summer will be my first time there and that's what people are telling me anyway............    ........... ............

My problem too.  It was difficult getting used to it here.
