A Cherry touchpad board, that I admittedly only bought for the 1x Windows 3.1 logo keys. I've been looking for them for a long time, but the seller wouldn't let up on selling them individually. The board's actually pretty nice though.

Are the caps double shot for the cherry board?

The gray set looks like dye sublimated thick PBT caps from IMSTO, but I may be wrong.

I've never seen an original cherry menu or windows key that wasn't pad printed on keysets that are otherwise doubleshot. With that said I use the 1.25 version on my keyboard even though they are pad printed because they are so beautiful to me. To be honest its the only reason I've held back on buying Originative's gmk sets now that the tab issue is fixed for Dolch.

They're gray imsto dyesubs with BSP Red Esc and B profile RGB, and a Dolch spacebar.

I've got 3.1 logos in 1.25x too, but it's just taken me a little bit of time to get my hands on 1x ones at a reasonable price (didn't want to pay over a hundred to random sellers for huge rackmount sets). They're all pad printed, but it's fine since I'm hardly ever touching them anyway. They're just for looks.

GMK's Windows 8 keys look alright to me, but I really didn't like the ones before that - the XP/Vista/7 ones.

Someone thought it would be nice to send me some goddamn flowers. What the **** am I going to do with dirty useless flowers? Throw them in the garbage, that's what. I feel kind of bad tossing them like that as soon as they came, but I can't handle that level of responsibility.

Thanks.  You really should see how ghetto my setup is though.  It amuses me.  That one was two shop lights clamped on a cardboard box and paper rubbed with oil as diffusers, a grey cloth underneath, the top to a little plastic paperclip box, a Mini Maglight with an LED stuffed in it, that silvery cloth, and my D70.

It's ghetto in the sense that it's a cheap as hell garage sale/hardware store/dollar store type setup and not a proper setup.  You can still get good results, it's just jerry rigged.

I actually tend to shoot by hand, no tripod.

What is your camera, Nubs?  I generally can't get sharp images by hand unless I use flash or daylight illumination.
