About MyTego.com
Wutz on ur skin? Mytego.com provides customers with the unique opportunity to design and style their own portable electronic devices to reflect each customer’s individual tastes and preferences so they can stand out from the crowd. It’s about personal choices. TEGO™ skins are precision cut, protective vinyl stick-ons that go on easy and come off clean, and are designed to fit exactly to all portable electronics. Any handheld electronic device including, but certainly not limited to, laptops, iPods, cell phones, portable game systems, can now have a TEGO™ skin for it, designed by the customer. Now, even other cooler stuff can have custom TEGO™ skins made, including board decks, and console game systems like the Nintendo Wii, Sony PS3 and Microsoft Xbox 360. Each skin is designed online, in real-time, specifically by the customer, with their own images and designs. Mytego.com then manufactures each one individually, on-demand, and ships them direct to each customer to easily apply it to the outside of their device. In a world full of millions of the same black, white and other limited colors of consumer electronic devices, TEGO™ skins show off the customer's inherent desire to have the power to personalize their own world with their own style.
Sadly, limitations still exist with most skin manufacturers with "premade" off-the-shelf designs as the skin designs have no real relation to what each customer wants or needs to truly reflect their own personal style. There is a significant difference between premanufactured, pre-designed with user designed and created skins; the 'customer-designed' skin. Mytego, is the leader in customer-designed and created skins; they take the design and manufacture of skins one step further with complete customer-designed and personalized skins for their customer's own iPods and other portable electronic devices. Colloquially called the "Tego" skin, mytego provides the on-line tools at mytego.com for all customers to design and create exactly what they want their Tego skin to look like, with absolutely no limitations except that of their own imagination. Users are able to upload images from their own computer or digital camera, use images from the online mytego image library, or create special designs with the online design tools. Mytego then manufactures each one specifically for that person, and ships it promptly to them, after which the customer simply applies it to their device. A Tego skin design reflects the true personal tastes and styles of each and every customer, as they created it entirely themselves. These are the new capabilities of the emerging trend of mass-customization and personalization; the ultimate choice of design and style by every individual person, regardless of what the consumer electronic gadget designer, manufacturer and accessory maker produces.
Mytego.com is based out of Winnipeg, Canada and has licensed operations in Europe. Worldwide distribution of TEGO™ skins is accomplished through a unique, patented online design studio that operates in more than 7 languages. Mytego.com is a world leader in innovative, on-demand, mass-customization and has developed a complete patented production system that allows for individual manufacturing with infinite customer choices, with similar economies of traditional mass-production manufacturing where the customer receives very limited, or no choices for personalization. MyTego is providing the tools to allow people to distinguish their own devices from the other millions of the exact same devices out there, whether it is an iPod, Blackberry, Nokia or any other gadget you may own.
