Hey, I just want to thank all of the great members here on Tech Forums for helping me build my new computer. I wouldn't of been able to do this without your help. Thanks a lot! Here are pictures from beginning to end. Lemme know what you think If you see anything wrong or off, let me know so I can fix it.

In the very beginning, when I opened the box, the case looked like this.
It was mainly black, not smooth black, it was kind of uneven, and wasn't a sanded finish, kinda ruff. The front door had lame words on it, and was silver, the whole inside and back was silver.
This is after I painted the inside and out, all of it was repainted with gray primer, and flat black spray paint cans. No Sanding, just cleaned, rubbing alcohol, and waiting for the paint to dry. Here are the results.
After I got the parts, here they are. I took pictures before,during, and after opening them.
Now, Here are the parts installed and the inside of the computer.
I hope you all enjoy the pictures. If you see anything hooked up incorrectly or out of place, please let me know asap. I set the Xigmatek Heatsink so the flat/even surface on the bottom of the 3 bronze pipes, would match evenly with the direction of the cores on the cpu. I think I installed it correctly and the fan only goes on one way, and so far I'm getting good temps.
On normal use (No Intense games) at 3.0Ghz and 680Mhz GPU I'm getting 35,37,31,33 C Temps. Not bad Ay?
