I now have a orange and pinkish colored 5k to compare to. Also, do you have a different design or options you would use to replace the dots? I'm looking for some ideas to try out. If you read my above comment you'll see the reason i chose the dot scheme.

Go with the orange for the 5K, for sure.

In this case, there are 4 sets of spots on the 25, 5 sets on the 100, 6 on the 500, 8 on the 1K and 16 on the 5K. It was just a thought I had when originally thinking of the design.
It actually took me few secs to figure out the pattern. The total number of dots goes down from 20 and 20 to 18, 16, and 16, and to my eye the pattern goes from complex (5-dot spots) to simple (1-dot spots). You might consider something like using the double-dot spot on all the denoms and having 2 sets on the 25, 3 sets on the 100, 4 sets on the 500, 5 sets on the 1K, and 6 sets on the 5K. This is just one of many alternatives.

I agree that you don't really need aligned edges, which make the biggest impact when the design spills over from the face to the rolling edge in a continuous motion.

Orange 5K for sure, but I'm a traditionalist.

You're off to a great start with these mock-ups.

The new tables i'm building is almost done too! Not entirely happy with the transition between the racetrack and the felt though...any suggestions with what i could do to make that tiny little crack throughout look better?

if we're just talking dot colors on them I think I prefer the originals as well

Wish I had that. I have to rely on wireless, and I would much rather have cat5/cat6 in the walls instead.

Chips are awesome. Well done!

Thx man. It will be even better in a few months. Electric is going to be finished up in about 3-4 weeks...then sheetrock and flooring. Going to have 4 TV's + a projector. Also have a bar + desk area + full bathroom on the other side of the room. Can't wait to get it done.

Love the chips. I'm glad you stuck with the dots and took our color advice. The purple 500s are very cool looking.
