    Sick...I'll just stick to using the cases for storing CDs.


    I liked the idea about how to bend the CDs by scoring it in the middle though.

    I remember seeing a picture somewhere where someone covered his wall with them.

    Personally, I use them for cup coasters on my desk. I do have plans to make an AOL CD collage on one of my walls eventually.

    I don't have enough cups for the coasters.

    I just thorw them into the garbage.
    Maybe not as environmentally as building a case.
    But I am just so tired.

    That's an awesome case.
    It'll eBay well.

    Much better would be to sell them on E-bay. Haha, I cannot even beleive this. Go search for "AOL" and hundreds of things come up.

    A guy I worked with collected them and turned them into a discoball. It worked pretty good too, but the ball got to be about 3 feet in diameter.

    Talk about a butt ugly case.. I like the commercial on TV where they get the last CD for the AOL Fish Design on the wall.
    I have been collecting all forms of free CD's over the years. I am not sure why but I have always imagined adding a CD border to the wall in my Computer Room. (Shiney Part Out) The only thing holding me back is an actual Computer Room (LOL)....

    AOL makes me want to cry. Big crocodile tears. I cringe everytime I hear about someone using it.
