Poll: which label for my 8v's? (1 Viewer)

[Beakertwang]

I've got a little fine tuning to do, but I'm looking for opinions. Light or dark? (Obviously, the colors and spots aren't exact, but it gets close enough.)

I love my black labels but I gotta say the lighter ones look better.

 

[Highli99]

Great label

 

[saleen121212]

I love this label. Great work. I suggest considering doing one side light and one side dark if it's hard to decide. I think that makes a set super cool and unique.

I 'm always partial to black labels and might feel guilty from time to time for not being impartial , but these labels (and, for these chips) are a no-brainer. Black all the way, sir!
Period._

I may play with the dark and add a little gradient, just for some texture. I'm a little split. I'm partial to dark labels, as well, but I like the look of the light one here. Hmm...

^^^This. I normally prefer black labels, but the lighter version of these appeals more to me for some reason.

Here's the dark with gradient.

Winner!

Black/Dark > Grey/White...
Gradient looks better but...
Add a bit of some color to the inlay and it'will look great (The Acres text or the denomination, even the donkey, etc..) white text on black is kinda plain.

 

[Beakertwang]

I added gradient and outline to the donkey and the denom. Didn't like it with any color in the label. I think this is close.

I voted light, but like the dark gradient best

I’m afraid this is sort of a blind-squirrel-finds-a-nut situation. But, send me some chips, and I’ll see what I can do. Preferably, THC Paulsons.

I’m glad you commented. Any pointers or critiques? Also, what do you think of the dark with gradient?

 

[Quicksilver-75]

I think everything pops nicely. Job well done!

Very nice design work, and the dark gradient looks great. I'd keep the gradient on the donkey but drop it on the denom. Also much prefer the 7/8" inlay over the 1-1/16" but can appreciate you wanting the text as big as possible.

They're going on the 8v's, so the label will be about 1.1". Thanks for the input!

D'oh, right in the title, haha! Can't wait to see the finished set!

 

[BarrieJ3]

Awesome design! New to the site and of course within a week I’m purchasing a couple sets. Not trying to hijack this thread but I’m having difficulty, is there a thread or specific users who can help design and what’s a general rate for the work?

There are a few established designers on the forum: @p5woody, @Quicksilver-75 are the ones I can think of off the top of my head. I think there's a designer thread somewhere around here.

Red denom?

Red denom?

Reds were gone before I got around to ordering.
