    That's fine, just send me a PM when you're ready.

    The colour scheme reminds me of the star trek panel designs for some reason.:thumb:

    Speaking of you and nail polish, my girlfriend recently bought some awesome nail polish that you might like. It has white and black confetti in it and looks pretty epic. I was thinking of grabbing a plain coloured key to try it out on. Here is a link if you are interested.

    Oh and just typing this on my lovely new poker :thumb: Cheers KidMod! As you said it is brand new and shows no sign of use. I think I will remove the Cherry sticker though, it isn't really to my tastes.

    Initially I wasn't sure about getting blacks, but I am getting on well with them so far, at first it felt like I was getting a finger workout compared to Browns but it was just a case of consciously adjusting the force required, due to the extra stiffness I am barely bottoming out so it makes for quite a quiet keyboard actually.

    Now I just have to decide whether to take this or my Filco to work. Though one of the upcoming full sized Duckys might be perfect for work... my poor poor wallet.

    And so it begins...

    On another note is the sticker one of the ones at the top of this picture?

    If it's reusable (which it probably won't be) then could I have it?

    It was similar to that, may have been exactly the same but I think it had a line line around the edge of each letter, I took it off immediately after my last post so didn't really get a good look at it to be honest.

    It was most certainly not reusable, it broke into a billion pieces when I took it off :hehe: It is completely off now and not a trace of residue.

    Does anyone have a Creeper key cap going? I liked the ones QWERkeys which I think had the sort of infill bit and was a slightly lighter green than the techkeys one. Failing that is anyone ordering from techkeys or keypop or anywhere soon?

    depending on what it is, i may end up ordering the march geekhack key/s from techkeys, only placed the order for february ones this week though.

    i have a techkeys creeper, but it's happily sat on my filco.

    Same, I'm probably going to get all 3 packs to justify new US shipping rates.

    I am in for a few keys from techkeys, not really sure what though. Does anyone know what the March pack will be or are you just hoping it will be awesome :p

    I really want the Coffee and Turquoise Smile! cap from KeyPop but it is $8 shipping for the both of them which is a bit much.

    yeah, this weeks techkeys order hit the amount for free shipping (45 bucks i think).

    all depends what the march set is.

    Qwerkeys just informed me that they should have the creeper keys soon (coming weeks in their words), they took them down while they sorted out the printing process.
