SpaceMonkey's Greek ASM chips (circa 2005,2006,2009) (1 Viewer)

[SpaceMonkey]

Hi all. After long 5+(!) year break from the community I see there have been a lot of changes. While not the best of sets, I still wanted to fix old links from old sites and re-document my custom chip adventures. Hope you enjoy!

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Circa 2005 - Original chips

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Circa 2006 - edge spot variations (add-on so same base colors needed to apply)

Delayed 5k chips

Small non-denom SnG/travel chips

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Circa 2009 - new colors and complex spots - high rollers add-on

Oh didn't realize you can only edit posts in the first 15m.

This all started back in 2005 when there were no choices/levels for edge spots. The set originated with direct inspiration from the Rounders colors as well as my Greek heritage.

Tournament chips used mythological creatures/gods while cash chips used "real" images. (Though I later broke that rule for the $20 cash chip :/ )

non-denom Owl (mainly 0.25) - Dayglo Yellow/Imperial Blue
$1 Helmet - Blue/White
$5 Ship - Mandarin Red/Dayglo yellow

T25 Centaur - Green/Dayglo Pink
T100 Minotaur - Black/Dayglo Green
T500 Hydra - Purple/Arc Yellow
T1000 Chimera - Orange/Blue
T5000 Zeus - Chocolate/Dayglo Peach

When ASM finally opened up their punches to home orders the following year, I just had to get more chips, right? But instead of creating a new set, I decided it would be more practical, but still fun to use the same base colors to make the set an add-on. So occationally both primary and secondary chips see play at the same time and it still works well.

Also switched the mold from A to the now available H and couldn't be happier with that change as well.

non-denom Owl (mainly 0.25) - 214 Dayglo Yellow/Imperial Blue
$1 Helmet - 414 Blue/White
$5 Ship - 314 Mandarin Red/Dayglo yellow
$20 Sphinx 3D14 White/Chocolate/Yellow

T25 Centaur - 4A14 Green/Dayglo Pink
T100 Minotaur - 3D14 Black/Dayglo Green
T500 Hydra - 614 Purple/Arc Yellow
T1000 Chimera - 6A14 Orange/Blue
T5000 Zeus -4D14 Chocolate/Dayglo Peach

Here I also added a small 200 chip SnG set without denomination to double as micro stakes if ever necessary

212 Light Green/Black (hortizontal)
212 Grey / Lavender (vertical)
4A12 Yellow (Chocolate/Dayglo Yellow)

Welcome back, @SpaceMonkey !

Images aren't showing for me..? Anyone else?

I have images in the first 4 posts. Nothing in post 5, but he mentions in 6 that he didn't realize he couldn't edit after the 15 minute window.

Love these chips. I remember them from the Blue Wall, but always nice to get a new look at an old set. The simplest of the set, maybe, but I love the owl frac in particular.

They are for me. They're hosted on imageshack, any chance your ISP/work blocks those?

Weird. I have nada

I'm on my mobile. Don't normally have any problems...

Good to see you around again, @SpaceMonkey.

I can't see the images here, but I can copy the links (right-click on icon, view page source) and view them directly on imageshack using the same browser.

@Tommy can probably help with the images, and he might consider extending your edit time temporarily if you ask.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Sorry Toby. I just checked my cell and I do see the pictures there too?

Should I move the images from imageshack to somewhere else? I'm actually surprised most of the images are still hosted there after so many years (and that I remembered my account info there!)

Also sorry again about post 5 having nothing. I guess I got lucky I threw in some pictures quickly in posts 2-4 rather than waiting until tonight like I had originally been planning.

Welcome back Spacemonkey!

Great set. You still have those Bahamias also?

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Thanks ssanel! I do still have the Bahamias. Haven't been able to part with them.

 

[Ben]

I can't see any images in any posts either. Personal connection, no blocks.

I really want to see these! I remember them being fondly referenced on CT, but the images there were always broken. Think I'll try abby's method and see if it works.

Edit: it did work. I opened some of the pics from imageshack and now they show up in the thread as well. The ones I didn't open yet are still missing. SWEET sets btw!

I can view them on mobile using Dolphin browser and clicking/holding an image and selecting 'View image'.

Very cool set. Love the theme!

 

[Mr Tree]

Links broken on Tapatalk but the first post at least shows using my browser on phone.

Thank you for posting these! It's depressing how many sets have been lost to broken links on the blue wall.

I can only see the first two images in the first two posts for some reason, the rest are a blue question mark box. I'm on my home computer ATM, so no blockage here. You can upload them directly to the site from your computer too.

this link might help:

Glad your giving some new old pron!!

 

[JFCJ]

Only first pic showing up for me... Personal Android phone... No blocks.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

All 11 of the pictures I posted so far are all the full size URL links from imageshack, using the IMAGE button. They all work for me both on a desktop and mobile browsers. Sorry so many people are having problems.

I'm not so not sure what to do besides eventually move the pictures to another hosting site and/or take new pictures. Either option will take a while though. It's also too bad you can't go back and edit old posts so when I get around to doing that the first few posts can have all the images.

 

[QuiQuog]

I'm only getting the first image and nothing else

 

[72o]

Weird..I'm at work with a lot of image blocks and usually cant see any of the image hosted pictures but I can see every one of your photos.

I love the progression over the years and the fact that you stayed true to the originals.

 

[Tommy]

They should be showing now. Not sure why some weren't. All I did is click edit, then save. I see the links get redirected to imagesizer @ imageshack. It may be an imageshack thing. I really don't know. If it keeps happening, I'll just upload them here.

 

[Poker Zombie]

I couldnt see the images, but I right clicked the reply button > open new tab, and presto - images!

Thoes T5000s are excellent!. I love chocolates!

They weren't working for me and I just clicked edit on one and save and then they showed up for me too. Weird.

Very strange.

I just uploaded them here.

Delete my post damn you

Very nice set. Now I can see them all.

I was confused as hell after I edited the originals. I thought I double posted or something.

 

[Tommy]

These are my favorites. Very nice! (y) :thumbsup:
