Kudos to Lord V for the design and prototyping, thanks to Tescos for the duct tape and coke for the raw materials
My dad made a pretty cool diffuser for my aunt, the wedding photographer.
Create a diffuser by cutting out a rectangle from a sheet of opaque white plastic about 6 or 8 inches long and the width of your flash.
Attatch velcro to the bottom edge of the diffuser. Wrap velcro around the end of the flash. Point the flash up towards the ceiling and attach the diffuser to the back of the flash, away from the subject.
When taking a vertical shot, twist the flash around so it faces the ceiling again. Remove the diffuser and reattach it on the side of the flash so it faces the subject again.
See discussion of this in the technique group.
This is a diffuser for placing between a gas hob and saucepan. It both spreads the heat more evenly and reduces the amount of heat that gets through to the saucepan base, allowing for very slow cooking. Over eight years of use it has acquired patterning from corrosion and burnt-on spillages.
** October 2010: This rig is very outdated but remains to show the progression of my setups through my Camera Gear set. You can view my most current and often-used setup here.**
Flash on, next picture is flash off.
Flash diffuser mounted (with tape, for now...I spent a long time making an elaborate wire support, and it didn't work out. Oh well.) Looks rough, works great. I actually have to diffuse it further with paper for many subjects, it is so bright.
Can also see my rig with the kit lens (18-55) mounted in reverse in front of my 60mm macro with a 62-52mm step-down ring and a 52mm male-male reversing ring. I have to hold the aperture on the front lens open manually; ten staples happen to be the perfect size to do so (older SLR lenses had a ring, which made it much easier).
It's a crappy shot, just uploaded for the tech aspect. Sorry for the poor quality, taken with old point-and-shoot.
This is a very simple, but very effective diffuser I have used for a most of the images taken with the 100mm macro lens you see on my Photostream this year. I was intending to write it up but haven't got round to it. These photos describe it.
My newest DIY macro flash diffuser: snootfusser. Been using it since June 13, 2008. Some images taken with this DIY diffuser:

Used my new TTL flash with diffuser and I totally love how it looks like she is emerging from the black background on the right side.
I know she is dressed as a Sakizou drawing but does anyone know which one as there are a gazillion of them out there. Or if you happen to know the cosplayer, can someone forward this picture to her? Thanks.
UPDATE: Nicole W left me a comment on 7.25.19 to ID herself as the cosplayer and who/what her cosplay is. She is "Miss Adversary" and yes, it is a Sakizou-inspired costume but she was not sure which book it came from.
Made of thin paper with a cardboard frame. Attached to the body with a flat rubber band, standing 10 cm far from the popup flash.
Notice the soft shadows on the result, especially behind the metal object on the right side. The popup flash was the only light source here.
Best when viewed in LIGHTBOX.
