Abstract
A system for customizing a notebook computer cover is provided. A user station provides a user interface to select at least one image and to transmit the at least one image. A server receives the at least one image from the user station and formats the at least one selected image to fit a shape of the notebook computer cover. A printer prints the at least one image onto a predetermined fabric. A heat chamber heats the notebook computer cover in response to the predetermined fabric being placed on the notebook computer cover to vaporize the image from the predetermined fabric into a clear layer of the notebook computer cover.
