If you like the Elite T's with the flames, check out this guy's art gallery . Flaming computer screens for every mood! He's even got tutorials for growing your own if you're the graphic designer type.

Location: GA USA		His art is clean and cool. I like it. He has images of skulls and flames, then a family portrait all dressed up in church. Either that's a clever joke or a funny coincidence.

Location: south east Michigan		I thought that the skulls combined with the family portrait were an interesting contrast as well.

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest		Hamer / Ovation do some of the best ghost-flames I have ever seen, and as a biker, I've seen some flame paint jobs.

I don't know if it's the same on the Elite-T, but Alpep had a Hamer Standard awhile back that the ghost-flames actually changed depending on the lighting angle.

Speaking of painted guitar.. Ovations "Flag" guitar that came out in early '02 I think, still sets the bar for flags on a guitar as far as I'm concerned. It was painfully obvious at NAMM when it seemed every guitar maker had a "Flag" painted guitars, but Ovations' almost looked like a flag on a guitar.

I hope with the new goings-on up in Hartford that they get to keep the artists responsible for stuff like that.

Location: Central Massachusetts		Didn't we at some point along the way figure out that they farmed the flame artwork out to Pastrana , the same folks who did the NAMM one-off? Wonder if they were responsible for the flag, too?

Location: Central Massachusetts		I know a lot of us aren't fans of that NAMM guitar, but it's still interesting to see how it was done .
