*It was fairly easy to put on, no special goo or anything... just peel and stick. For the Droid it was in 14 pieces. It also had a clear cover for the screen but I took that off since it made the screen look 'fuzzy' to me.

14 pieces! Yikes, I had a hard enough time putting on a screen protector straight. These products look really cool and I would personally order the Great Wave, but the installation is making me have second thoughts.

The sensor cover up is definitely a deal breaker as well. Do the Gelaskins have the same problem as the brand Sheryl bought? Can anyone confirm this either way?

I ordered 2 skins from DecalGirl. Will let you know how it goes when I receive them, which should be in the next day or two....

Thanks for the pics Sheryl.
The issue with the sensor could be fixed with an Exact-O Same with the soft keys.
I'm still debating a purchase... but I like the idea of a custom skinned Droid

I ordered two Gelaskins for my phone - I had to put on the notification so the LED would blink while I put it on. Fits pretty well - & yes, there are two little holes at the top - for the LED & The sensor. 5 pieces - covers the buttons on the front, but definitely doesn't affect the sensitivity.

I had to break down & get a skin of my son BMX racing...doing a manual over one of the hills. When I take pics, I'll share.

Hope that helps.

Those Gelaskins look pretty cool and don't have any of those "edges" I was referring to. Have you made a phone call? <- I know! Crazy question about the phone. lol I was wondering if you were experiencing any of the issues I was. It looks like the Gelaskins don't accomodate the light sensor on the left either.

I am also curious; if you made a custom skin, did they send you a background that works on the Droid. In the FAQ they only discuss Apple and BB.

Thanks!

I've been toying with designs for a while... I still haven't broken down and bought one yet
