NEW QUESTION: CUSTOM ARTWORK and the rights to it.... look at post #16 and 19

Deuce · #1 (**permalink**) 08-18-2006, 11:05 PM

All right boys and girls... This is my situation. Im going to order this felt and I want it to be perfect. I have two questions here.

First, what size image... I think 30x13 (middle in size) is my best option, but here are some pics side by side. The burgundy is just there to show the rail (its black on my table.)

Next, should I go with Suited Speed Cloth or "Gaming Suede" from custompokercloths.com. I have speed cloth and was all set to order it but now Im thinking the "Gaming Suede" would be nicer. I hate these decisions.... CHIPTALK ---- HEEEEEELLLPPP MEEEEEE!!!!!

Picture of a size mock-up (work with me here) on the table 24x11

Mock- up of 36x16

THIS IS A MOCK-UP of a in between size

This mock-up is 30x13 but I dont have a color draft of it.

OK, by the way great desing, can't wait to see the pics of the table when its done. Now, I would go with the inbetween size if going by itself. That just looks like the right ratio of table size to art. I would use the smaller size if using a betting line, but as you havn't added one yet I will just stop.

Go with the new inbetween size, as far as material, I'm ordering samples a few months before I order mine as I also have no clue which I want. If I had to choose one for my table right now I would probably go with the Gaming Suede as that sounds more like a casino style cloth which I really like.

Thanks for the comments Snipe and I think I agree with you about the size. About the betting line, Im not a big fan of them so I probably wont add it. Thanks for the suggestion though!!!

I like the inbetween size. I know nothing about the different types of material though so won't comment on those. Really nice design though

PS. I also like the idea of a betting line

30 x 13 on SC all day, son!

Nice work, btw.

I've played on both and speed cloth is much better IMO.

BTW, I voted for 36x16 on accident. I meant to vote for the middle one. My bad.

I would have gone with the 36x16 size on the gaming suede that Dave prints on. The feel is much nicer than the harder suited cloth. Plus it is easier on the card paint too. I have had a cloth printed by Dave, he does GREAT work.

But you will be happy with what you have chosen. Most of my tables I have made and sold have been with the suited cloth, but when I get my custom cloth for my own table I will go with Dave and get the non suited (you can do a mockup of the suited print on the no suited cloth as well).

The cards slide further/better on the suited cloth for what it is worth. But nothing a little more force couldn't handle.

Glad you liked your products from Dave and Im happy to hear that he does good work. So far, he has been nothing but awesome to deal with. He actually recommended suited cloth because he said the graphics stand out better on it. Oh well, its been ordered and Im sure I will love it when it gets here.

The graphics on the cloth I got from him were excellent, if he states the suited is better, then you will be pleased and I may have to try it. Please post a pic when you get it, or put it on your table.

I am going to PM you a picture of the cloth he did for me on the gaming cloth.
