Chips: 7,798 | | | That's a toughie. I guess it would help to know if you're planning on sticking to 12 chips. We know green is in the works. What about white? Orange? Grey?
EDIT: In the end, with so many chips, I think it's okay to have one outside the scheme, especially when it comes to this specific chip. Plus one could always use it as an alternate red chip. |

Chips: 11,932 | | | It’s a no-brainer: if you are not going to display the National Ensign boldly, don’t display it at all.
Very nice work, both the old girls look great.

Suffice it to say that I am down to "pink and brown" as the only colors not assigned to a girl. Green, orange: Both done just awaiting tweaks.
We are hoping for 12, shooting for 8, and guaranteed 6. |

Chips: 38 | | | red/white/blue.....as long as it's the only one...more then one, and you really are breaking the "theme"
if it's NCV I'd use it as a misc. high value chip so the color matters not, but the pink one, while following the theme, just doesn't look right IMO |

Chips: 13,935 | | | The US Flag is an important symbol - please do not tint it pink.
I think it would look better on a white chip keeping the red white and blue background or a grey chip tinting it to greyscale leaving the girl in color.

Chips: 11,932 | | NO TINT - Flag or no flag, but no tint.
