I like them. How much did they cost?

sweet chips!
love the artwork.
i have always thought that a set of 40's style pin-up girls would be the ultimate gentlemen's poker set. i am surprised there are no commercial sets available.

great work!!!

cheers,

Thanks Goblin for fixing my post (new to this forum). And thanks for the comments. I got 500 Nexgens for $85 & the labels from Lynbark for $40? Pretty happy with how they turned out. Classy, not Filthy was definitely what I was going for. They're probably not commercially available b/c of copyright laws.

Impressive. I love them.

I replaced my card faces on Party Poker skins with pinup girls. /images/graemlins/smile.gif Let me know if you're interested...

Very nice set. What do you think of the Nexgens? I've been thinking of picking up a set of 500, but the cheapest i can them for is 100. Do you mind me asking where you got them for $85? Did that include shipping?

What's the deal with labels? Do they have an adhesive backing and you stick them on?

Love my Nexgens, great price @ $95 + Shipping. My mistake, had the numbers wrong. Here's the ebay link I bought through: Ebay (http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=63759&item=6161547 416&rd=1)
Thanks TenPercenter, I'm glad that you like them - it really adds to the experience for my home games.

Yeah. I tried using a staple-gun, and it really just didn't work out.

Nice pin-ups. Very nice labels.

Ok. I deserved that.

Has anyone had problems with the labels coming off or getting damaged from use?

Thinking the same thing.

Nice chips... I really like the theme. Someone else posted their mock ups (http://www.texasholdem-poker.com/forum/phpbb/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=61981&highlight=#61981) using a similar theme.

Also, somewhat on the same subject... just saw this (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=63756&item=6162565 778&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW) on e-bay... about the only thing you can do to up the value of the chip /images/graemlins/wink.gif. It says it's printed on and "not a sticker"? Interesting.

If the snake is indeed seperate... it'd be a cool one.

There are some Betty chips & cards as well on the site.

Heh, thought about that too, but decided it'd be classier & easier to read my nickname that way. If anyone's interested in desgins, I'd be willing to try some things for people.
