First go to Case-Mate.com and click on Custom Case. To design a case using your own photos click on Get Started or if you want to remix art from professional artists you can click Get Inspired.

 

 2. Choose Your Device

Next choose your device. You can design a case for the iPhone 4/4S, iPhone 3G/3GS, Blackberry Bold 9700/9780, Blackberry Curve 8520/9300, Blackberry Bold 9900/9930, Samsung Galaxy S (T-Mobile Vibrant), and iPod Touch 4G. We will be adding more devices to this list so stay tuned!

 4. Upload Instagram and Facebook Photos

In addition to uploading images from your computer, you can also upload photos from your Facebook and Instagram accounts. Click on Upload Images and in the top left-hand corner you can choose which accounts you want to connect to. Once you have connected each of your accounts, you can drag and drop photos into your photo gallery.

 

 

5. Background Color Choices

You also have the option to choose from 11 different background colors. So feel free to test out which color you think works best with your pictures.
