I just got my Shrine 3 with Magenta back light, which I love so far. The red keys they include for WASD has me inspired to get different colored keys for the rest of them. I was thinking of ordering a keycap set from WASD but I want to make sure that they will both fit and look good with the back light. Im new to all this so bare with me if this is a newby question.

Most people are going to say something about thick PBT.
I'm gonna have to say cherry profile anything, like This (http://www.originativeco.com/collections/keysets/products/classic-beige-with-blue-legends) or this, (http://www.originativeco.com/collections/keysets/products/ski-data) are my favorites.

Most of the key caps doesn't let light through. You need very specific kep caps designed for backlit light to go through. Unless you don't mind to only see a shade of light underneath them.
And oh, welcome to GH!
