Logitech has a solution for all of us PC gamers that have ever had the urge to affix personalized images on top of our gaming mice. We can now order a customized G9 Laser Mouse ID Grip from Logitech's Website . The G9 Laser Mouse, as you may remember, already comes with two interchangeable grips, so snapping on a new grip isn't a problem.

You can select from premade images on Logitech's site--we saw an eyeball, flames, a couple of Red Alert 3 shots, and a variety of abstract designs with names like "Trance" and "Swircle," but serious mousing enthusiasts will want to upload their own pictures. Product marketing manager Vincent Tucker showed us a few sample grips emblazoned with his Tauren warrior from World of Warcraft.

You can upload almost any kind of image, except for ones that will get Logitech into trouble for producing them. That means no dirty pictures, copyrighted or trademarked materials, celebrities, offensive material that break laws, and pretty much anything that might bring undue media attention. Sorry kids, you'll have to make your own Miley Cyrus stickers at home.

Keep in mind that print media isn't as forgiving with low resolution photos. You'll want to upload a high resolution picture, up to 10 MB in size and at least 300 dpi, to keep the image sharp. The graphics are "infused" into the surface of the grip, so they won't fade over time or rub off like a sticker.

The ID Grip retails for $20 and the Logitech FAQ estimates that it'll take about two weeks to ship out your grip "about 2 weeks from the day you place your order."
