New skin set on the horizon. Wanted to include the logo, but it doesn't translate to hexagons well, so I settled for using the logo colors specifically. There's a few more tweaks I'll be making, such as finding out why each shape has a border I didn't set, and then I'll post previews of each piece. Strokes added by a script to make the hex grid (in the code) contacted dev to hopefully resolve without starting over.

EDIT: fixed thanks to one of my knowledgeable homies on the Ai subreddit. (Thank you Skanda8!)

Hello,
Good job with this, it looks like it will be awesome and I am very much looking forward to being able to order.

Personally the simplest designs would be best, I'd take a mate black skin with no logo for the top cover. It would keep true to the PBPro's design and help keep fingerprints away. A small grey Pine64 logo on the lower left or right corner would be alright.

Again, I am quite looking forward to ordering a set, I'm always nervous I'll scratch the machine and ruin it's pristine sexiness.

Cheers!

Thanks for the feedback. We likely wouldn't print a matte black skin to sit on a matte black surface. It's essentially a hat on a hat. Instead we're looking at clear options that bond well to the surface and let the PBP's own glory show through. There are already plans for these to include the Pine logo, but it would likely be centered. Don't worry though, I'm not a believer in large, obnoxious logos.

Stay posted on this, as we have a great "clear on clear" option we'll be exploring soon after our laminate options. Unfortunately a description of the appearance/print method won't do this idea the same justice as being able to show it to you, but we'll get there soon enough.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
