100% Selfmade. Some letters were a bit tricky. Hype ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/DGUGO.png) Line-ups ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/lg9Bv.png) Maps ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/k8zbp.png) Results ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/5n73X.png) Recommended ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/mEWqR.png) Stream ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/QTSJd.png) Vods ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/tTXIe.png) I never create LR threads as I wouldn't have time to update them, but I would be honoured if they were used. That's me with my sleeping hat (and cube) . + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/gHlXz.jpg) Could a mod edit my topic name, so nobody sees how much I suck at spelling?    | ||

 cubing is actually fairly simple. You're only able to brag to people who've never tried it themselves. | ||

I think this needs to be solved before they can be used well. I can think of two things: - either taking all the pictures in the same setting - now you have a keyboard, hands, a mug, and various dark and light textures for background, and different sized cubes to boot, it's kinda distracting. - or doing some photo-manipulation to make the letters stand out. Here's a desaturated mockup of the first one (takes ~30 seconds to do): ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/L7rzk.png) Cool idea otherwise. edit: and it's Rubik's | ||

Yeah I did all these in my holiday resort, on the airport and on the plane.. so I couldnt quiet get the same setting. I agree the are hard to see and I think the way you solved it makes it look pretty good. If someone did that with all the words , I would include them in my OP ( Or wait a week and I could do it myself ). | ||

I tried to use only two colours ( as you can see on the simple letters ) but for the more difficult ones, that was impossible. I tried to make it as good as possible, maybe there are better solutions tho.

I took it apart and had a look inside to try and understand how the mechanics behind it work. There are screws inside the holes. | ||

On to the actual topic at hand: I really liked the pics, immediately saw the words (although the N took my brain a few seconds) and thought it was a fun idea. Interesting how some see the words easily and others dont, I wonder if it has to do with looking at/doing a lot of art regularly or if it is more of a pattern recognition brain difference. | ||

That usually happens to cheap cubes. Mind you, Rubik is also a brand. IIRC, there are two famous brands of Rubik's cubes used by speedcubers which don't have this 'hole' problem. One of those is the Rubik's. | ||
