Shufflephones 2.0 - New Hotness Edition

This photo album and instructions for my second project for making an iPod Shuffle fit inside a pair of headphones was originally posted on my now defunct mac.com site back in 2005. Thanks to Archive.org I am now able to resurrect it. You can find the page as it originally looked (more or less) here. 

I've also tried to leave the original typography/layout intact as much as possible. Unfortunately is seems the higher resolution images didn't seem to survive and I had to cludge the HTML tables a bit to fit. You can find the flickr set for these images here. (Appears my Flickr Pro ran out.) I uploaded higher resolution images to an imgut album here. Head past the jump for a blast from the past.

NOTE: The images below look like the have links to something but in fact they simply link back to this post. Apologies. Resurrecting the dead isn't perfect. I uploaded higher resolution images to the imgur album Jim Younkin's Shufflephones Ver. 2.0.

On Internet Trolls and Critics

You can always tell you are doing something right because people start trying to tear you down.
