Chips: 60 | | | red white and blue. Period. One, don't screw with the coloers of the flag. Two, I like the idea of having one very bold, slight break chip. Peopole can use it for:
Striking high denom chip
Bounty Chip
Wiiner/TOC chip
etc, and still make it both a part of the set, yet stand out some too. I feel quite strongly about this one... |

Chips: 732 | | | I'd normally want to keep the theme going throughout and tint the chips, but I think that an American Beauty chip with a full color untinted flag in the background could be the best chip in the set.
That's a fantastic girl and looks great with the flag. Heck - even if it's not a flag that girl would look great on a full colored chip as a standout chip in the selection. I also like as others pointed out that it could easily be a replacement red chip. |

If having the flag forces us to break the theme (and clearly the flag doesn't look right pink) then I think there shouldn't be a flag. This image is already different than the rest in that the other girls are on "real" backgrounds... They lean on a car, lie in a bed, sit on chair, etc. |

Chips: 39,028 | | I suspect it's the flag issue that is at stake here, not so much the pink. Let me test this:
How many of you that voted #1 (pink/tinted/themed) are from outside the US? Don't be shy...  |

Chips: 2,224 | | | I voted number two based on habit. I should change my vote because #1 goed with the set better and doesn't change how I feel about America or the flag in any way. It's a much more cohesive chip. I suspect if you like #1 better, you shouldn't have put this one up for a vote. |

Chips: 944 | | | #2 is by far a cooler chip. I wouldn't buy #1. |

I love the look of the chip (#2)...I think removing the flag would also not make me want the chip as much | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
