Title: Orange Keycaps on green backlight (race II white)
Post by: UberStinus on Sun, 19 October 2014, 09:00:19
Hi folks,

I was wondering whether anyone has some experience with this color combination as i am rather worried that it'll look brown :-X
I'm currently waiting for my Brand new Race II to arrive and I still have some Fluorescent orange keycaps laying around.

Looking forward to tha feedback!

It might depend on how bright the LEDs are, and how thick the keycaps are.

If you already have the keycaps, and the keyboard arrival is imminent, just try putting a few on and post a picture :)

Especially the "post a picture" part, because... now I want to see it.

Yeah, if the caps are thin enough and the LEDs bright enough, the green should just shine right through almost unfiltered
