My cousin sent the skin I had ordered for my Creative Zen Vision W through a friend and it reached me yesterday. Here are some pics of it (click on the thumbnail)

The package in which it came

The ‘dummy’ player and the skin

My player without the skin (yea, I know its dusty)….note the screen protector looking all shiny (it doesn’t hinder the viewing experience though)

After putting on the skin

The nav keys and such are exposed

Its got the zen logo embossed just like how it is in the player itself

The volume keys and the ON/OFF switch

Overall, the skin is ok. It’s soft, but a dust magnet. There is absolutely no protection for the screen and it actually does not protect the player if you drop it. But we don’t go around dropping hard-drives right? (this player has a Hitachi Travelstar hard-drive inside. Someone actually dismantled and saw!). More than dropping the player, I am paranoid about the screen breaking. It has the largest surface area and so obviously it’s more prone to such a thing. But I am not sure if anything can be done to protect the screen, except for some careful handling.

I paid $19.99 but now the skin sells for $15.00 Anyways, hope my player feels warm and cosy inside its new skin
