New materials and finishes are very nice. The price is nice, too. I personally don’t like the NR logo. The serif font looks generic and out of place on a modern keyboard.

These are my thoughts exactly

Quote from: Visionaire on Sat, 27 July 2019, 10:49:37

Agree, the branding is unattractive imo

Choose another theme / item to attach (like the Leaf) to the branding / badge. Something simple and clean.

Also agree with this, I think the Leaf logo would look so much better than the NR

I'd definetly would love to see a Welded Steel Keeb.
Sounds like something new to me.

finalarcadia · « **Reply #53 on:** Sat, 27 July 2019, 17:49:17 »

Agreed, other than the logo, looks interesting specially the steel option. Liking the braille logo option mentioned earlier in the post.

evorus5 · « **Reply #55 on:** Sat, 27 July 2019, 18:01:07 »

I'd be in for this if the blocks logo changed.
Back lit leaf would be nice.
Or leaf plate to match the bottom plate. Brass, pvd etc

Another option that you can explore is maybe a fox silhouette to brand your board that is engraved into the top case or even as a removable piece like the NR logo.

Cresc3nt · « **Reply #57 on:** Sat, 27 July 2019, 18:49:14 »

Would definitely be interested in this at this price point and as several others have already mentioned, a leaf logo/backlit leaf would look a lot better than the simple NR logo on the front. Looking forward to this GB.

Design of the board looks great. But that logo though. Not really feeling it. The leaf was a much better one.

ghstgrl · « **Reply #64 on:** Sat, 27 July 2019, 21:30:08 »

Oh snap another 65%... dammit the choices are getting more difficult. I too, would like to see a render of the polycarb if possible.

gxtcha · « **Reply #65 on:** Sat, 27 July 2019, 21:48:24 »

loving the materials but not a fan of the logo.

WKL option?

fractl · « **Reply #66 on:** Sat, 27 July 2019, 23:16:25 »

I was planning on getting an e-yellow Polaris, but prefer 65% boards, so this may change my mind.

Personally, I like the final column, from top to bottom, to be Home, End, Page Up, Page Down, and the right arrow key. So, apart from not liking the logo in the upper right, it also prevents me from having the layout I prefer. Meaning that I would prefer an extra key as opposed to a logo I don't care for.

I don't expect things to be changed for my preferences, but you asked for opinions and responses, and this is just what I feel personally.

I don't mind the logo on the back, however. And I'm interested in what other e-colors will be available.

skrunk · « **Reply #67 on:** Sun, 28 July 2019, 00:46:27 »

Left WKL blocker would be sick, and I don't really mind the blocker logo.

Are the different colored top frame and bottom case official? I dig the black and pink one.

Slimjim095 · « **Reply #68 on:** Sun, 28 July 2019, 01:53:20 »

This keyboard design is on point. However, if that logo was a symbol or more aesthetic it would be so much more attractive. (Imagine if it were a leaf for example?) this board has potential senter. That logo on the top right needs work however. If this was named Leaf 65 with leaf branding it would look a thousand times better imo. For example imagine if the Kyuu had a bland font and letters on the right blocker, it would be a less sought after board imo. (You get the idea).

I've always wanted to get a Fox Lab board, and 65% is my favorite form factor. But I really don't like the logo. I hope you reconsider it. I agree that a more simple symbol would be nice. Maybe if you have to go with "NR" you could use braille

NR in braille:

Hmm, braille on the blocker sounds pretty awesome. The bumps on that blocker might feel and look good!

+1 for braille instead or just the reuse the leaf from the other boards, would look so much better!

Keebo · « **Reply #80 on:** Sun, 28 July 2019, 14:51:42 »

I think a logo change is needed. Ideally a standardized metallic “badge” would be great. Then we could make our own logos if we wanted down the line.

Also split backspace is a necessity. Please consider adding split backspace compatibility.

Hokabuki · « **Reply #82 on:** Sun, 28 July 2019, 19:08:31 »

I really like the material innovations. However, 65% has been so overdone recently. I would rather see this in 75% with an additional key instead of the front logo.

evorus5 · « **Reply #83 on:** Sun, 28 July 2019, 21:15:50 »

Adding in to my last comment, I think the Braille, Leaf65 Logo or even this fox silhouette I found off Google can be an option. (Obviously not a direct copy )
And these logos could be a plate that is inter changeable or even like the back of the Leaf60.
I'd be all over it... Buying two. Lol

Please have an option for a no blocker kit.

Yes, I agree or for a potentiometer but it needs to be classier looking to fit in with this board.

NR still means nothing as it hasn't been explained. I also prefer the fox logo.

Would be good to know what layouts will be supported on PCB and plate.

This is just about perfect. Except for that logo. Like others have said, I think a leaf would be perfect. I hope you consider this.

Dennyroxsox · « **Reply #90 on:** Mon, 29 July 2019, 11:05:25 »

Any support for split spacebar or backspace?
Either way, I'm in

I'd like to provide two PCB versions as we did before.
One version will be the HS MX switch version, regular 2u BS adn 7u spacebar.
Another version will be the non-HS, multiple layouts supporting, ALPS (and maybe more) switches supporting version. I like split spacebar so definitely yes for it. Not sure about split BS.

Polaris is a great board. Kevin and Ai have good taste. I may get a Polaris as well.

TBH I didn't like the NR logo. Fox lab is not just me tho and my partner insisted on the logo. I'm glad he admits he's wrong now.

E-black, E-white, E-red will all be available like before. You already know how E-yellow looks. Here are two other colors I prototyped before.

CNC milling G10 blocks is the plan. The factory told me it will work. We'll decide after we get the prototypes.
