Are you actually considering ordering from thepokerchipcompany.com? I've heard their chips are much better than the average composite, and I do like their graphical hotstamps. If that fits your price range, I say go for it.
Figure out what kind of chips you want first. Then you can decide on the available options based on your chip choice. If you like hot stamps, any of those chips can be hotstamped, as can most of the Chinese chips.
With hot stamping, it really depends on the chip colors and the stamp design/size. I prefer small stamps. I also think the stamp doesn't show up so well on lighter colors.
