Where I'm leaning at right now
This isn't bad either. I love that dayglo green

I like both options here Bill... I'm leaning towards the bottom one tbh as with the green you're adding a totally new color (yellow and orange are cousins )

I'm addicted to the chip design tool. I thought, let me try my hand at adding spots to my set and see what it looks like. If, and this is a big "IF" I went with spots I wouldn't want anything to crazy. A lot of the spot levels just get to busy for me. Again, if I did this, I'd prolly stay with level 1 and 2 spot progressions.
I thought this looked interesting. Your thoughts?
I like 1, 2, and 4. Not sure about the dayglo green on the lavender.

Just a thought. Do you have generic photos of your favorite beach/destination you could use? I personally love photo chips ie. ritz's, grand vics or bahamias

J5 is coming up with my sunset design. Do you mean a picture for the time being to put on the chips as I run them through the chip design tool? I would have no idea on how to do that, lol.

Bill, what is your reasoning for adding a ½ Pie chip to the set? Don't get me wrong, I like the spot but looking at your progression I'm not sure if I get it... You go 114, 214, 314 and ½ Pie... It seems to me 414 would be the most logical spot, no? (sorry for being too obvious, LOL!!) Again, I like that spot, and if you're either using totally different spot sizes and shapes or if the set is solids,½ Pie and ¼ Pie, then I'd get it... Just my 2¢ man...
I'm not keen on the blue on the lavendar - plus you already have a blue chip with light blue spots...
Are you going A mold for these?
Scroll + 44mm + 514..?
Is the 44mm A mold still out of action?

As much as you love solids I can't help but think that you may regret not going the solid route with this set.
Agree with Toby; I was thinking a yellow-ish spot would fit better with the lavender chip.
Also in agreement with links -- although this lineup looks good, I think a solids set is really what gets your gears turning.
That, plus playing around in the chip factory.

This is sexy
My thoughts if you go the road of edge spots

Yes, I have a special relationship with the "A" mold, lol.
I'm sure you guys are right. I just want to cover all the options within my budget to make sure I don't get anything that I'll regret. The "solids" are still way in the lead. I figure while I wait for J5 to come up with something I might as well feed my chip design tool addiction a little more. I figure why not post them here and gather opinions.
It does seem out of place. Until I post it I can't quite tell. I'm not a fan of the 414. the 114, 214, and 314 all work for me. As I said via text. I just find the half pie sexy so I think I'm trying to force it into the set. I could always go solid, 114, 214, 314 if I decide to go the edge spots route (I know some people aren't fans of mixing solids and edge spots (I'm not one of them).
Still in the lead FWIW

I did a quick one for you, I think the lavender and dg yellow look real nice together, as do the dg green and dg pink.

Two tables

5 x 190
25 x 140
760 chips
60.00 buy in
8 x .25
13 x 1
9 x 5
I have decided 100% if I'm going with a 1 or 2 table set. I've hosted a two table cash game only twice in the last 5 years. My initial plan was to buy a 2 table set then sell my Samurai Palace cash set. I'm thinking if I order a 1 table sunset set then I could keep the SP chips. On the rare occasion that I host a two table game I just use both sets, one at each table. I did this for the mini meet and greet at my place a few months ago (PCR's and Sunset chips) and it worked just fine.

simply because I can't go 12 hours with fondling the chip design tool I fired up another all half pie set (not that my budget would even remotely allow me to purchase this).
I kind of like it. The only one that doesn't fell 100% to me is the $5.00 chips (#3). Like I said, doesn't matter. Don't have the budget for it anyways

Do to the meaning of the Sunset design, and the simple fact that I really enjoyed them. I have decided that is what I will pursue for my cpc cash set.
I plan on contacting either pwoody or j5 to consult with the design. It looks like I can't go wrong with either decision. I don't know if I'm going to just refine this design http://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/how-did-you-come-up-with-your-custom-poker-chip-design.6893/, or go with an entirely new one. Hopefully that is where the professional will be able to help me.
Chaos suggested maybe looking into going with a silhouette style sunset. I do want to keep the beach style theme as is closer represents our 20th Anniversary celebration.
In the mean time I'm going to start screwing around with the Chip Design Tool. I have several color's that I like. I just don't know if they will flow together, or even look good with a sunset design on. I'm not going to let that stop me. I'll probably be posting a bunch of color combo's. I'm posting them, so feel free to honestly share your opinion. I'm not creative enough to do this on my own, lol.
I plan on building a .25, 1, 5, 25, and maybe a 100 chip. I also might just let 100's play. Currently undecided at this point. I'm also planning on making this a "solids" set.
In no specific order, here are some of my preferred color choices
These are the two leading options as of now.

OP is updated with my two leading options. If I go solids, it will be a two table set. If I go with the edge spots it will be a 10 player, 1 table set (and I keep the Samurai Palace for the rare occasion I have two tables).

Solids are still leading the way for me. If I go with edge spots I will of course ship you a free sample set if you want.
