Depending on the price difference, if any, I may have to adjust my order...

Same with me.  I'll probably drop the Escape pack if the price goes up.  And if they drop the CMYK kit, well, I'm out altogether.

If this GB doesn't have enough orders and doesn't go through will we still be able to do the cherry double shot GB that is linked to this?

He should have asked that there. And flynn has already said that, although he isn't completely certain, it is more than likely that if this doesn't go through, he will drop that.

no so certain anymore about it being dropped anymore if this doesn't happen. There is a good chance they will still be available now pending some things being worked out behind the scenes

Truth is, their MOQ is a bit unreasonable. Why can't they have pricebreak tiers? Who is it that's buying up all the GMK caps? Just sherryton or other vendors like him? I don't see keyboards coming out with these caps yet...

you need to send to the person you deal at GMK link of this thread before the GB ends, that way they can see the progress and also they will know your not flaking on them..... I mean gimme a break, if we hit on purple 250, CMYK 200, Esc pack 300, they wont turn on the machines for these numbers?????

Meh, their loss!!!!!! not ours!!!!

They mainly deal with industrial and large corporations for in house stuff as far as I can tell not keyboard oem sadly. Keyboard oem are all too cheap to use decent keycaps. If they stopped using crap we wouldn't have to buying aftermarket stuff all the time.

As the OP stated, it contains both winkey and winkeyless key sets...so you should be covered regardless of what layout you use :)

Also, I think Korean forum members are unlikely to purchase anything without a sample of the actual keys being made.

Great!! Could you take an additional photo with white paper in on the back? The current photo has too much yellow tint.

I used white legend part to adjust white balance to get the photo below, but it would be much better to have a photo with actual white/grey background to get accurate white balance. :

If you could arrange White on black (black on beige if possible) DS with the partial set and have a photo taken, that would make a great marketing material.

I don't think I mentioned about it.

As long as it looks cool and go along with other Cherry DS caps, I am pretty sure there will be demands.

However, I think there are many people who wants to use their keyboards at their work, so flashy caps get less demands.

Honestly, I hadn't checked the OP in a while, and I didn't even know those samples were there! I thought all we had were the arrows...

Maybe if there was an image like limmy described, with the modifiers alongside a white on black set, against a white background. That would show off the set for sure!

I could be wrong, but I think GMK didn't send Ivan more samples, they just sent him pictures. Not sure how fed up they are with these requests, but I do think getting "full set" pictures would get more interest.

Right I only got the photo this morning in email, so I can't do nothing more for additional pictures. You can balance it from a picture that is known to be correct by using the white legends. Sorry but this is the best I can do for right now.

Thanks for the info, Ivan.

I think it would be better to use corrected version of the photo of the sample if it is closer to the arrow keys you have. The current photo in page 1 is not that attractive.

If you could arrange White on black (black on beige if possible) DS with the partial set and have a photo taken, that would make a great marketing material.

You can play with the levels some to get a more accurate color.  It looks like they used the wrong white balance setting on the camera and added a yellow hue to everything.

I manually adjusted levels, did some slight color correction, and some minor curve adjustments based on the original sample image.  Using the color sample tool, you can guesstimate the color.  I got something like this (and sorry if it's a little bright, I can never tell since my laptop monitor backlight seems to be a little dimmer)



Using the eyedropper tool and approximating the color off of the original sample color, the cyan Alt key should look something like this:
