Are there any protectors that just cover the screen? I assume the gelaskin won't cover the screen and I don't want to pay 12 bucks for a protector. I'm using BestSkinsEver right now since I prefer a wet install, anyone know of anything around the same price as BSE?
Got a tip for us?

These really look great. I'm tempted to order one. Has anyone ever come across any coupons for their website?
Yeah, +1 for coupons.
How does the print quality compare to the image that you upload? I had an Uncommon case, and the colors were significantly washed out when you looked at it next to the JPG I used.

There is a 10% off one and they always have the "buy 3, the 4th is free" offer running as well. When I bought for my 3g and my ipod I combined my order with my brother and we got split the cost.
Has anyone tried their screen protector? I wonder if the one that fits the screen cut out is difficult to install..
I ordered an SGP Ultra Oleophobic but I am wondering if I might as well get the ones gelaskins offers as backup.
Edit: just got email with new coupon for 20% off. Code is GELASCHOOL.

Not too happy with the quality of print. 🙁 very pixelated text string. I submitted the image of the chair (see previous page). I created everything in adobe illustrator cs4, so I know it's not the quality of my image as the jpg I exported was crisp. (again, see previous page) I'll try to take pictures of how bad it is. Anyone else have this same problem?
Buuu that's not good :-(
In the past I've only purchased from their stock catalog so I don't have experience with custom ones. I am planning on ordering one stock and one custom so I'm curious to see how pixelated yours came out. The only requirements I found on their site are 900 x 1500 px for mobiles..
Have you tried their customer service?
What was the resolution of the picture? and the DPI? they say it should be 300

im already getting kind of tired of my gelaskin. I really like the looks, but it just makes it such a pain if I want to use a case temporarily. For instance just got the otterbox and it just barely fit but it kind of scrunched up the corners. Not a huge deal but I am thinking I may at least take off the sides and front pieces and just rock the back until it wears out.
Haha, you and me are in the same boat. Im tired of mine after using it for about a week. But untill a case comes out that i like ill be using it so i dont scratch my phone.
That's why I'm thinking about just using a plain case until Uncommon can get their damn act together and push out their iPhone 4 cases.

I like the back protector part, its just the front and the sides are getting a little annoying. I just pulled the front and sides off, but am leaving the back on since I can always cover that with a case if I need to or desire to.
I honestly can't believe the appeal wore off so fast.
Ok just got my custom gelaskins and slapped them on. Looks pretty good. Her's a few pics I took. I still got my wood back and red and green side from luckylabs for backup.

Here are my close ups. and to whomever asked above, i followed their guidelines when creating my image, so yes i had it at 300dpi.
i kept the images large so you can see the close up detail.

No one is going to be staring at your iphone that close, how about a shot that shows the entire phone. but so far it looks at par with mine which is great
I just ordered mine! And the 10% off coupon worked. I got the bookshelf skin and I'm hoping it will fit with my clear Belkin Micra case I got from Apple. I'll post pics!
no, i suppose not many people will, but being a perfectionist when it comes to my designs, there is no way i could live with this low quality print. I'm remaking one that doesn't involve text, then I'm going to send this one back. it's not going on my phone.
i'm not worried about how images look, from what i've seen posted here, they seem to do an ok job b/c they don't have to be as crisp as say, 4-6 pt fonts. that is the only thing i'm unsatisfied with on my cover. i'm pretty sure it's just the material that they're printing on that causes the bleed of color in which the text becomes blurry.
i just wanted to share my thoughts on the quality of prints they have in case someone wanted to know.
cheers
I ended up ordering the a Neo New York skin for now. Once I get my black bumper (and after I get tired of this one) I'll order the LOST creation I had in mind hehe!
