And I salute you for the feedback, sir. I really appreciate it.

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned and I'm not too enthused by the idea of having to flip through all the pages, but one thing that's slightly annoying is that they did the nuclear symbol upside down, which is odd because it was printed right side up in group buy 3.

I don't think it's worth bothering to be honest. Although it's slightly annoying, trying to fix it is even more of a hassle and will just make SP frustrated with us. I would however politely mention it to her in an email so she can understand why we get frustrated with them and maybe she'll feel guilty and be more vigilant in the future.

I don't think Melissa feels guilt.

Just frustration looking at all these Geekhack novelty keys.

What Unicomp did was raise the price and promise poor quality upfront.  

Good strategy.

not sure if its already known, but the jolly roger 1.25 modifiers do not perfectly match the das keyboards in color or shape. the black is much lighter on the SP keys.

just sayin in case the wikis dont already have this information.

im still going to use them.

I thought it was known that the Jolly Roger is a dark grey and was never suppose to be black black.

As for the shape, you mean compared to the stock DAS keys? SP has their own family which is a little off of everything so thats normal among all SP's keys

What really angers me is how red this Red awesome face turned out; I was thinking it would be much blue-er than it came out.

the skull head: the background black plastic seems deep/dark grey more than black. is this a flop by signature plastics or designed this way?

This was just asked a couple posts up. It was meant to be dark gray.

The two Skull keys look HOOHAH! on my Camo keyboard - match perfectly the Group 3 Key Buy doubleshots.

When I was originally picking the colors I made sure that it was something you would like.

My keys arrived a few days ago.

I decided to put a few on my keyboard. Now I just have to figure out where to put the rest...

Also I'm really ashamed of the crappy picture quality.

About the upside down nuke. It doesn't bother me really.
But I think we should let SP know about it and that we are accepting the keys anyway.

I didn't know this. So you either have to kit out your whole keyboard with SP keys, have some keys that are lower :mmph: or just not use them. Ahwell...

Any European folk has gotten theirs? I believe tracking number works only within the US cause they have been in "JAMAICA, NY" for more than a week now. Any way, I hope they arrive well cause some people had theirs put on my package so...It wouldn't be very funny :doh:
