Thanks for the input.

I'll send you my bill for services.

Design
1) Are you talking alternate side labeling? one white, one black on each chip? If so, the white side needs dressed up.. and lose the two dots

[/ QUOTE ]

Yea alternate side, but can you be more specific about the white side.

[/ QUOTE ]

Compared to the black side, with the fancy lettering and background, the white side is too simple imo.

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]

Other than that, the general concept design is good

2) Black label- go with a dark gray, rather than black, background in order to see the text more clearly. Also, is there really a need for the $ symbol?

[/ QUOTE ]

I'll have a look at the dark gray background. I though $ sign was standard on all chips even tourney chips.

[/ QUOTE ]

Make your set international! That way, it can travel with you to London, Prague.... Ethiopia....

[ QUOTE ]
Wanted something different and really liked the combo that Stevie posted.

I really like the blue [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ]

Then the proper response was screw you, LL, you lowbrow, plebian bastard!..... (wimp)


[ QUOTE ]
Again if you have any ideas on a better color scheme I'd like to see them.

[/ QUOTE ]

Stevie's chips turned out brighter than I thought they would, so since yours are pretty close, it shouldn't be as "muddied" as I assumed.

Ha!

Those pictures were taken moments from when they arrived back in the day (and I would have gotten multi edge spots too if I could have).

Since then they have gotten plenty of use, and the chalkiness is completely gone from the sides.

As for the add-ons, however, they still need some breaking in.

Very nice. Just pissed about the roman mold being gone.

[/ QUOTE ]

FYI, it may come back. It went away before and came back. I was going to order some roman mold chips in late sept. and she said check back in a month or so.

Also, you should check out: www.chiptalk.net

Good to know. Not that I plan on adding any in the near future, but you like to have the option.

I really like the peeking aces look, but I don't think the design colors works well my chip colors. Any ideas?

I didn't like the first one, in relation to your originals, last night.

Why not combine them? Sub the cards only (shrink them) in the gray/white labels. Change the flame and add it to the new peeking cards, that are on an angle.

Maybe move the denoms above the cards (either on the flames or higher up, near the top of the flames?)
