Gotcha. Well at leat we have a conversion chart from the Paulson color pallet.
 
made an account just to say how cool this is! I'm starting to design my first set and was looking for a tool just like this. Great work so far!
 
Well stick around! Its a fun community that has sucked me in. Beware the politics sub though... it gets weird in there. Lol

So glad you like it!

I figure I owe you all an update: In an effort to get Chipmatic actually deployed to the web where you all can use it (instead of just running it on my laptop), I decided to move some of the logic to back end server processes. This has proven to be... more complicated than I anticipated. I'm going through the tedious process of working through javascript bundler discrepancies, replacing browser only apis with more flexible alternatives, etc. I'm excited to get back to feature work once I dig myself out of this hole.
 
It's here! I've gotten Chipmatic to a place where it can be shared. Check it out: (moving to Resource)

I uploaded a .svg with an inlay that was sized at 28mm, but it was tiny. What size do I need to make it for it to show correctly in Chipmatic? Pic is after sizing it up to 55mm.

I think what's going on for you is that you have a circular inlay inside a larger canvas. You should size the canvas down to a square of the same dimensions of your circle. In Inkscape you can do this by going to Document Properties -> Display -> Resize to content and it it will automatically fit your content. The actual "mm" of the graphics don't matter because SVGs are infinitely scalable.

I've uploaded two screenshots to illustrate this. If you are still having problems, feel free to send me the svg and I can take a look.

Thanks for the reply! I think that is the issue. I have a blended ring around the inlays that is much bigger than everything else. I'll remove that and try again.

EDIT: I removed the ring, and it's still not scaling. Here is a pic of everything selected in Inkscape.

2nd EDIT: Ah, yeah. I see what you are saying now. I misunderstood at first. Thanks!
