Double shot replacements ROUND THREE: Vote for Kits & Quantities!

[Koeitje]

Vote for
AWESOMEORANGE 25

and get them for $4 per key.

So we need 25 votes?

[7bit]

Ripster? Do you still love it?




ps: I bet he uses some software which tells that him his name has been mentioned in a post.

[7bit]

No: $6 per key if 15 are produced.

[7bit]

Technically it is perfect. Meets all (known) production requirements.

Just does not look that awesome as it should ...


Next to come: Trollface.

This will be an even worse desaster, because lines must be a bit thicker and gaps a bit wider. Don't know if this will be possible at all...

After looking at some other examples, the issue that I have with it is the thickness of the border around the eyes.  It detracts from the "silly" factor of the origional.

That said, I may never notice it once it is the size of a key.



EDIT: I definitely don't notice it as much in the tiny pic.

[HaveANiceDay]

I can't help myself!
All I see is a man [strike]sodomising himself[/strike] scratching his butt with a keyboard.

How about putting the keyboard in his other hand? I may do it myself to see how it looks.

Now it's perfect (at least to me):

First the good message:
Wow! We are at 111 Standard kits right now!

STANDARD...................111

Now comes the bad message:

It's a new kind of hardcore porn:

Ass-keyboarding!

Where is your problem?

[bugfix]

I doubt that we'll be able to make it look like the troll face while also matching production requirements.

[Koeitje]

No: $6 per key if 15 are produced.

Ok people, time to vote for those orange awesome faces

[bugfix]

Oh boy.

[hfcobra]

i am sad the trollface will not work.  That was the key I was the fan of the most.  O well though, the awesome face should look pretty cool so long as it doesnt get mutilated or anything  

[Ekaros]

Btw what about iMav? There is that oversimplified picture around?

Or maybe not...

I think the only way to make the Trollface key is to pad-print it or something like that. Should I ask for pricing?

Here is BTW the even worse version which would be needed for dark backgrounds like white on red or white on black etc:



All the orange sections are too narrow (less than 0.5mm).

[Twitchy]

Perhaps there is a reason for all those BIGass asian enter keys after all. A larger area for trollface doubleshots!

I suggest we get them make custom keys for us. One in either 3x2 conf for those godless tenkeyless boards and one in 3x3 for us with our numbad... Might reduce usefulness of some keys, but small price to pay for glorious troll-face or other custom graphics...

That's ingenious!

Production of the Trollface would be plain sailing on a BIGass or L-shape enter key!

I see an increase of popularity of big-ass-enter-keyboards in the near future!

Could you request price for custom ISO-enter? We might be on to something Might get 2 or more

First the good message:

STANDARD...................111

Since we've gone considerably over 90 sets, is there another magic number that, once reached, will drop the price per set below $48? I'm considering getting another standard set if there is such a thing.

[ynih]

mm. word, I would love to know if there is such a thing.

[DaemonRaccoon]

Oh if it does drop in price, I'll have to add something else... Look of disapproval here I come?

(It's a shame that the trollface won't work. Awesome however is well, awesome.)

[7bit]

I'd be interested in 50 to 100 of the black and around 30 of the white - depending on price and availability of course.

This must be turning into a full time job...

I need to know which color these should be. Do you want them to match the black or white of Cherry keys, or should they match the colors of the Standard kit?

[Evil_Spork]

No trollface makes me very sad...

Has anyone thought of the possibility of spanning a design over several keys?
Would it be possible to span the trollface over several keys.. maybe even a full 9 keys(3x3) like a numpad? Or any other cluster of keys that could be easily replaced without worry of improper key profile.

[bugfix]

Would it be possible to span

That would be costly.

[Evil_Spork]

That would be costly.

Probably about $16 for the 2x2 set.. that is pretty costly, but it would look awesome.
Think about a giant troll face spanning across your whole numpad!

[bugfix]

Probably about $16 for the 2x2 set..

If 25 people order it...

7bit, I just received a new invoice. This time with AWESOMEFACEORANGE included. Should I pay for that one alone (since I paid the rest already) and is the price correct?

[Lpb45]

Hi 7bit,

My invoice is messed up, I put in an order about a week ago for some odds and ends got the invoice and paid it through pay-pal (please check it - #142).  It was paid with the order # in the text from Paypal.  Now today I sent a message that I wanted to order a standard set aswell but the new invoice you sent includes everything on my first order (which was paid already) plus my standard set.  Can you take a look and get this fixed?

Thanks!

iMav did not send me a list how much everyone paid. I will ask him about that. The original plan was to add the amount which had been already paid to the invoice, so the sum shows what has to be paid.

[Lpb45]

Ya my invoice shows that I still owe for everything and its still using the same invoice # 142, I just wanna make sure I can order my set! lol I know you guys will get it sorted out.

[hoggy]

I think it would be best if they match the colour of the cherry keys - that way they'll probably match the keyboard case better.

Thanks for looking into this.

[Lpb45]

7bit / Imav,

So should I just pay the remaining balance with a seperate pp payment so you dont have to mess with the invoice?

Yes, just pay and include the invoice number and user name.

[calavera]

No rush, but I'm still waiting on my invoice. We have until first week of March I believe?

OCN pulls keyboard information out of their butt all the time.

[digitalleftovers]

Just got my invoice last night (#150), but the orangeblank and orangeblankmod sets did not show.  Were they not ordered in acceptable quantities, or should I just resubmit and try again?

7bit is doing separate invoices for the blanks, we'll get them when he gets the quote for blanks from SP.

Thank you for the quick reply.  I just wanted to make sure that they were counted.  Do you think I should wait until I get the second invoice before I go through paying for the first?

[Twitchy]

You can wait for now. We're waiting to hear whether Signature Plastics can complete the blank sets from stock which could be cheaper. 7bit should find out this week and the order will be placed soon after. I'd keep an eye on the thread for the next few days if I was you.

[manfaux]

I have no idea! I voted for the blanks as well and paid for the rest first. I think we still have until the end of the first week of March so I guess it's okay to hold your payment until 7bit tells us how much the blanks are gonna be.

[Kacee]

I haven't got the invoice with shipping, last invoice I received I replied with my address, haven't heard from 7bit (or iMav) since.

[7bit]

Please be patient everybody.

I had some real work to do.

Thank you!

[Lpb45]

Second payment sent!

All paid up now.

Thanks!
