Here is a mock up of the label I have been working on for some Nexgens. What do you guys think? The Quarter thru $5 (Cash game set) are pretty much set, but I am still trying to decide what to do with the tourney set ($25-$500). I would like to work in some sort of edgespot progression, but the only way do do that is to mix-match "molds" or use an all 8002 set. I'm just not sure if I like the three-color black & purple edgespots.

Which do you like better and why? Comments on the label design?

Oh, and many thanks to austin5string for working on the artwork for my idea and putting up with my never-ending tweaks.

Have you looked at the NEXGEN Lucky Bees? I think they are the best of the NEXGENs.

Yeah, I looked at all of the different NEXGENS. Basically I like certain ones out of each series. I wish NEXGEN would use the same "mold" on all of their series with the different edgespots, then you could really piece together a set to look however you want. So basically it was either mix match "molds" or try to match molds and choose the edgespot patterns that I can live with.

Some day I hope to get a custom set of TR Kings probably with this design as the inlay, then I will have plenty of control over the edgespots. But until I can gather up the $$$ this is going to have to do.

I would mix and match then to get what you want. Right now my cash set has white NEXGEN River Poker Tour chips as a 5 cent chip because the colors are rather muted, befitting a nickle chip. I use Lucky Bees for 25 cent (yellow), $1 (blue), $5 (red), $25 (green). High society are relabeled original Paulson TH&Cs.

I'd go with the third row. While I am not all that crazy about the tri-colored edgespots, I know that the RPT chip itself has a tendency to split and the edgespots on the RPT don't "fit" all that well into the chip. I haven't really handled any of the Vegas mold so perhaps they are not much better. Buy I also like the way you matched the label color to the spot colors better on the 3rd row.

very nice! i like the riverpoker ones a bit more (not a huge fan of the 3 different edgespots) i might consider switching the crown colors on the 100 and 500 so the 100 would have the green crown/# and the 500 the yellow-green. i'd also tweak the green color so it was a tiny tiny bit greener. simple, nice, clean design in general.
