Its not too my taste but I cannot help but admire the OP's way of thinking, I really hope you do well with this and any other skins you create in the future. Well done.

Actually, there are two red lines. The darker red line is at the top of the keyboard towards the "spine" of the notebook. The faded red line at the edge of the page is the assumed "right margin" or the left margin of the next page that "bled through" (see below).
I've had enough composition notebooks in my life (plus the one I was designing from) to give me really awkward flashbacks as I was designing it.

If you're trying to sell them, this could be a mixed blessing. You got some attention but they are telling people to contact custom skin companies (ZAGG) to get their own. I don't know if you have anything arranged with them yet.
Good luck with selling them, it's cool to see the mod featured on numerous tech sites

I want to order one of these! I see that a few companies have taken your design for the top lid. Does any one know of a company selling the upper/lower skin?
If not what is the process of custom ordering from Zagg?

Nice work
Good idea. I like it. Pretty neat to see how fast the popularity grew.
My personal taste is I hate covers because I feel it takes away from sexy silver
. If I did purchase one, this definitely would be a top contender.

OP: Looks awesome! Great job and thank you for sharing it with the community at large! Keep trucking along, maybe you have found a niche market to cater to!

Very nice! It is just looking as a personal diary. I think most of the people will get confused at first look. you can also have look on lots of notebook skins from where you select the perfect skin for your MacBook Air.
