Might be worth exploring making the base colour for the alphas a little lighter than it is on the 2nd option (but not as white as the 1st) and keep the legend colour almost black as is - I think that'd look the nicest, because the faded grey-ish legends for the light scheme is too little contrast in my opinion.

I mentioned this on Reddit, but surely the lighter color kit can be done with GMK stock colors, right?Correct. I will probably do accents with GMK CB, but for the keys I may have to stick with one custom color.

any chance for text mods? or even all iconIt's personal preference really, just what I decided on when making the renders. Some sets do this, especially Dixie-run sets. Might change when I make the kits, but for now I think it'll stay this way.

Lots of sets do it this way, full icon mods aren't popular (personally I find them to be ugly, at least with the GMK style icons).
Using icons on backspace, shift, tab, caps lock and enter while leaving the rest as text may seem illogical, but for many it looks a lot better.
It's also the way Cherry made their icon mods:

(someone can correct me, but I believe ANSI boards were made with icon + text mods and ISO boards were icon only)

i would agree, icon mods suck, and full text mods should be the only version allowed, but the mix is nearly as bad as full icon

Will there be a stepped caps included in the kit? very nice inclusion of UK ISO support btwYes, there will be stepped caps. I have actually included an international kit, so there will be more support in an alternate kit.

More than sacrilege, the real problem is that it's uncomfortable to feel two different kinds of textures under one's fingers while typing. Even mixing very rough PBT and very smooth PBT caps can produce this.

- The R3 1.5U \| is still present twice. Delete the one in the lower R3.
- R1 End and Page Down are missing. OTOH, they're present twice in R4: in the base kit and in the numpad kit. The solution is to leave the numpad as is and move those two R4 keys in the base kit down to R1.
When's the GB starting?

I know adding a kit this late would be an almost guaranteed 'no' but figured I will ask anyway. Thoughts on an ergo set? Even just the add on for the 1.5u's and 2u's instead of a full kit with alphas.
Really like the idea of this set being for charity. Hope it goes well :)
Post by: konstantin on Mon, 18 May 2020, 08:47:55
A few things I noticed about the icons kit:
- If you're going to support 1.5u Super (♢) keys for Mac and OG-style HHKB bottom rows, there should be two 1u Alt (⎇) keys as well (currently there's only one).
- The Super (♢) icons look at a tad too large to me.
- The Raise (⥣) / Lower (⥥) icons look a tad too large and too thick. Try making them the same relative size as the PgUp/PgDn icons.
- It would be nice to see R2 PgUp (⭻), R1 PgDn (⭽) icons, but I understand if you decide not to include these as the kit is already decently sized. In that case, what you could do instead is add a single R2 Raise (⥣) key, which, together with a R1 Lower (⥥) key, could stand in for R2 PgUp, R1 PgDn.
Also, the base kit:
- Consider changing R1 1.25u Menu to Fn. 1.25u Fn is very commonly used on 60%, 65%, 75%, TKL and full-size keyboards. If you make this change, you can remove the 1.25u Fn key from the Nomad kit. However, if you really want to keep Menu, please add Fn alongside it for those of us who need it (although I don't think this is necessary because Fn is a versatile legend that can also work as a Menu key).
- Consider using <> instead of \| for the R1 ISO key (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=90706.msg2894820#msg2894820) in the base kit. This will help avoid a duplicate legend that some ISO users have been complaining about.
Finally, the spacebar kit:
- Are the 6u spacebars centered stem or off-centered stem?
- 1.75u space isn't used on any keyboards outside of the following 40% boards: Vortex Core (×1), JD40/45 (×2). For that reason I don't think it's worth including a 1.75u accent space key in the spacebar kit.
- You might want to include an alpha-colored 1.25u space key either in the spacebar kit or the Nomad kit for Alice users who prefer to use the 2u+1.25u left space configuration, as well as for users who like to split 6.25u spacebars as 2.25u+1.25u+2.75u and want to use alpha-colored keys to do it.

Hey, I'm loving the colors and kits after the update. I also think the tribal deskmat looks really nice.

Don't worry about how the legends look in the icon kit, it's not what EPBT will use to align and size the legends, and the raise and lower keys are not what they look like in the render; they fit more.

- Consider changing R1 1.25u Menu to Fn. 1.25u Fn is very commonly used on 60%, 65%, 75%, TKL and full-size keyboards. If you make this change, you can remove the 1.25u Fn key from the Nomad kit. However, if you really want to keep Menu, please add Fn alongside it for those of us who need it (although I don't think this is necessary because Fn is a versatile legend that can also work as a Menu key).
- Consider using <> instead of \| for the R1 ISO key (https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=90706.msg2894820#msg2894820) in the base kit. This will help avoid a duplicate legend that some ISO users have been complaining about.
Finally, the spacebar kit:
- Are the 6u spacebars centered stem or off-centered stem?
- 1.75u space isn't used on any keyboards outside of the following 40% boards: Vortex Core (1×), Daisy (1×), JD40/45 (2×). For that reason I don't think it's worth including a 1.75u accent space key in the spacebar kit.
- You might want to include an alpha-colored 1.25u space key either in the spacebar kit or the Nomad kit for Alice users who prefer to use the 2u+1.25u left space configuration, as well as for users who like to split 6.25u spacebars as 2.25u+1.25u+2.75u and want to use alpha-colored keys to do it.
GL with the upcoming GB!

Thank you so much for the suggestions! I'm taking most of them into account. Don't worry about how the legends look in the icon kit, it's not what EPBT will use to align and size the legends, and the raise and lower keys are not what they look like in the render; they fit more. The 6u spacebars in the spacebar kit are centered.
You're welcome. Great

Kono doesn’t have a product page up for it yet? That seems odd given the imminence of the GB.
Kono started a web page for GMK shark bait about 2 days into the group buy. It’ll come, but they’re not the first to the party.

For some odd reason, the desk pads are on a different link and currently not selectable. Are they different transaction with separate shipping?

This is a very good question. My guess is that the link is still under construction. Mats often, but not always, ship separately from the caps but this is per set and per vendor. It's likely that's the case here but your vendor should spell that out for you on their webpage.

Thanks ! I hope desk mats are bundled along to save on shipping. This is one of the more affordable quality sets that can go out of my budget quickly due to shipping.
Edit: Shipping seems to be free :) sweet. Just joined.

Kono is stating the caps are doubleshot PBT :thumb:
LOL, they are! Someone should break the news to them

Not sure if someone else spotted it yet, but the row numbers on the numpad seem to be wrong. You have 7,8,9 in R4, but qwerty is in R3. They should be in the same row, and 4,5,6 should be R2, 1,2,3 R1. Probably just an error in the picture, but I wanted to point it out. Good luck iwth the GB!

Prett set and a great cause you are supporting!Thanks for catching that! I'll make sure to fix it.

The set is priced very attractively, but mykeyboard charges so much more it's actually cheaper for me to order from the Kono store, even though I'm ordering from Europe :confused:
Hi zemljače! It actually isn't cheaper — mykeyboard by default charges 21% EU VAT on all orders, which you don't have to pay since Serbia isn't in the EU. Message them on their Discord server (https://discord.gg/Pnf64Yt) and tell them that you'd like to buy the set from outside of the EU, and they'll be able to sort you out.

also quick topical note for people that perhaps don't understand the cause - "save the elephants" does NOT imply "don't save the other animals".

Of course not! It means we gotta get more keysets for more animals!

How does the color of the base alphas compare to the color of the alphas and/or modifiers on the ePBT 9009 set? I have the 9009 set, and am trying to see if some of the kits in this set would color match the 9009, and having difficulties properly converting color codes (in part because I can't even find color codes for ePBT 9009, only the very similar GMK 9009).
EPBT 9009 was color-matched to the corresponding GMK colors.

Epbt 9009 was color matched to L9 (alphas). I believe epbt 2048 was also L9 (whole board). I fully expect ivory to be much darker and more brown than L9. I don't think they will mix and match well with 9009. I could see them serving as interesting accent to all one color sets like 2048.
