Title: Happy hacking keycaps
Post by: fossala on Sun, 25 March 2012, 14:56:56

Can someone with a white HHKB and a black HHKB show me what a white HHKB would look like with black modifiers? Blank prefebly but will kind of get an idea either way. For bonus points if you have a red esc throw that on there as well.
Just want to see what it would look like before I buy the caps.
Cheers.

Where did those metal keycaps come from?

I can do it when I go home, by modifiers do you mean just ctrl, shift, command and option, or all the surrounding non-letter/number keys?

I don't know if this is exactly the layout your are looking for.  I tried it with just the modifiers, but liked it better this way.  I may even finish swapping them so the white one has all black keys and vise versa.

Thanks, I don't like it. I will just keep it white.

HHKB, do nothing but type. No arrows/Home/pg up, pg down.
It really is a whole concept when you think of it.

I agree with you, so I think I'll finish switching the keys.  I do like all black keys on a white keyboard and vise versa.

I like white keys on black boards but not the other way around.

Since I just swapped the keys, this was the only option.  I think I like both of them.

TIL:
I usually like white keys on black boards except in the case of the HHKB.
