I love and hate you sherry!
I need both!
Think I'm actually in for miami nights this time around
Ivan got me for 3 sets :-(

I need Miami Nights. :-X
What's the deal with the inconsistent legends?
Any chance of going with the Windows logo instead of diamonds? I'm not a fan of diamonds at all. :-[
To me, they make any keyset look cheap or like a knock-off. It'll be a pass for me if it's diamonds.
Or at least replace with "Code" or "CODE" like GMK Cyan.Show Image(https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0267/1905/products/R_374_2017-05-08_large.png?v=1494359207)Show Image(https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0267/1905/products/Miami1-2_large.png?v=1493973541)

Whilst I won't be taking part, I agree with autobot. It looks fairly out of place when Control and Alt are letters. It makes sense if it's uniform (like GMK Penumbra, where the whole bottom row was caps), but mixing and matching feels a bit less fitting.

Thanks for your opinion! I'll definitely take this into consideration and might be adjusting it to the CODE Key. The reason why I chose diamonds in the first place was to use as little text as possible for the whole keyset.
What's the deal with the inconsistent legends?
Terry, the picture by autobot is the correct picture. Sorry about the complications.

Look at page up, page down, home, end, etc. You're using icon mods for the "standard" keys and text legends for 75% and 1800. If that's really correct, it's a deal breaker for me.

Thanks for the information. I'll be e-mailing GMK.
Seems the best option would be text mods & windows keys, just like in your non-GMK generated renders.
I think that'd work best. Having text means more of the contrasting color against the keycap color. :thumb:

that's my preference too, but it's sherry's set to decide upon, plus it's already in GB stage so some people may have purchased knowing their preference of icon mods

just to go against the grain of last few posters. I'm totally in for icon mods.

Miami Nights is good to go!
I'll continuously work with GMK to bring this set with all the correct keys. We'll do textless but not on the keys above the arrow keys (unless I can get the 1800/75 keys to be textless as well).

will the final key legends be determined before the order period ends?

It's already determined.
We are going with all textless for modifiers and text for above the arrow keys and most likely CODE keys on the bottom.

Too bad for the diamonds. They were spot on, in my opinion. :(
Will that be textless even for the bottom row (except Code obviously)?
Hey sherryton, will you get updated GMK renders to reflect all the changes made for both sets?
Hey sherryton, will you get updated GMK renders to reflect all the changes made for both sets?
Yes, I will have a chat with them tonight regarding the render.
Hello, any chance of a numpad 5 with bars? The nipple is so ugly...
And a 6u spacebar, maybe as extra?

6u is a definite possibility. I'll also look into bars for you, bro :) This is definitely possible though.

Hi Sherry,
Just to confirm, Insert, Delete, Home, End, Page Up and Page Down will be all text?
Thanks!

Control, Code, Alt, but definitely a novelty key in replacement for an additional windows key instead of Diamond. We'll do something more in line with the theme.
Honeywell had both CODE and Windows, and we'll definitely follow along.
Latest Update:
So we might not add an extra 6u spacebar at the time, but we will add the barred 5.
All legends including Esc will come textless.
The bottom row will look similar to this: https://gyazo.com/b178d616aba889cd5536c73b5a118c06

While I welcome the barred 5 (and I still hope for that 6u spacebar ;) ), I would like to say that I'm not 100% sure about your decision to modify the modifiers.
Look at what's happened with Penumbra: you're considering an addon with lowercase modifiers, because no one loves the caps modifiers.
Sometimes I like to pick some keys from one set, and combine them with another set... having an icon instead of the usual "Control" could probably make the result look ugly...
At least you could probably consider the ISO symbology for modifiers?
Probably it looks like this:

So you're on him because he's trying to modify in regards to feedback during the GB? He could easily not try to take feedback at this time.My distinct impression has been the feed back and alteration stage is in large part, the purpose of the interest checks.
It just bugs me that a line about him being disrespectful or dishonest would even be posted, especially as you can easily withdraw at this point with no hard feelings. How you say things is just as much of an issue as what you're saying.Words absolutely are important. That is why I chose mine carefully. There is no mention on the store page of the possibility of changes, there isn't even a link to or any indication of the existence off a discussion thread. The only reason I came upon it was an offhand comment someone made about whats been going on with the Miami Nights set in an interest check for another GB, I was curious as I intended to buy it, so I went hunting. Disrespectful at best and dishonest at worst? Absolutely. Willfully so? That is not for me to say, but it doesn't matter, the result is the same. If I conducted myself in my professional setting in this way I would not only be out of work, I would be sued, and lose the case.
It appears to me that Sherryton is trying to shorten the time lag between initial concept to final delivery, and I for one, appreciate that effort.I applaud the effort to trim the lag between conceptualization and delivery. I abhor this execution. There is an enormous amount of room to do exactly what the GB organizer has done, and still inform prospective buyers what they are getting into. The attempts to inform buyers in this thread, imho, have been halfhearted at best, and that is being generous. To me, to conduct a transaction in this way shows a complete lack of respect of the people spending money.
The store page shows images that don't match what participants will be receiving without any kind of notice or disclaimer to this effect. The group buy disclaimer only mentions that the product hasn't been manufactured yet so there may be unforeseen delays. I don't believe for a second there's any deliberate attempt at misinformation here (particularly since all the changes make sense), but the page is definitely misleading.I doubt it's a deliberate attempt to misinform on the part of the GB leader, but I say this not knowing the financials between the store and the leader.
Personally, I like all the changes.
That's the way it's done in many cases. But just because that's the way it has been done, doesn't mean that's the way it must be done. Innovation is regularly applied to technology, but where it really comes to the fore is in processes, and I'm glad to see people trying to update those processes in GBs. And one of the driving factors is in trust, and the erosion of such in the hobby because of people doing things the way that they've always been done, and it not working.So you're on him because he's trying to modify in regards to feedback during the GB?

Hey guys, thanks for all the feedback.
We're planning to stick to the render, but we'll update the textless above the arrow keys to text: 'Delete', 'End', 'Pg Dn', and 'Pg Up'.
I hope this will help! I just want to let everyone know the reason why we tried to change what was shown was because not all the words were textless. GMK also brought me that template, and I just wanted to see your opinions on it before we went into full effect. Anyhow, I'll be putting in the order this week with the text above the arrow keys.

We still have 2 days to go though

Yeah, Miami will most likely not make it this time, but I do plan to run it again!
I just want you to come back and take a road trip... again!
If miami does not make it can we switch to the dark set at the same price ?

Damn, I liked the full icons set. I should have spoken sooner.
If you are planning to stick to the render, does that mean that the diamonds are still in, or will it be Win logo keys anyway?
What we should do, is to choose some legends, that will be consistently similar in all the future group buys.
Probably the iso ones could be a better choice?? Personally I really like this ISO simbol ⌘

I hope that Miami will see a rush of last-minute orders.
Hey guys, we might open up the Miami set for another 2 weeks. A lot of people are helping fund it today. I think we can reach the MOQ with another week.
We will submit the order next week, but leave it open for 2 weeks (June 9th, 2017).

Looks like there's an error on the render, as F1 and F2 have magenta legends, when they should be cyan?

haha, some people who bought Ivan probably bought this too.
I have to make an announcement. Because we are quite busy with the event in Taiwan this week, I haven't placed the order yet. We will surely work with GMK to place the order, but they aren't free for another week. The date should still be good, but I'll make some more updates if necessary.
So I made a rough Photoshop from one of Hotkeys Project's pics. The pics already had Sky Dolch skewed dark, so this got me to thinking...
I plan on mixing Miami Nights with Ocean Dolch to make Ocean Drive Miami Beach. :)
Sky Dolch/Dolch Reborn Alphas can be a little hard to read (for me) depending on the lighting situation, so I think this level of contrast could work very nicely.Show Image(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4420/36724199645_73e349784d_b.jpg)
Hopefully either arrived at oco or on the way to us by now?
will GMK Miami nights be in there store?
