Colors vary more from printer to printer than they do from monitor to monitor.  I used to work in the printing business, and this was always a hassle.  People bring in their disk, and then they say "It didn't look like that at home... the purple is way to pink!" or something like that.

I thought the whole idea was to match the colors of the original leaf versions plus add a few new colors and I think Shawnzilla did a stellar job at accomplishing just that.

No argument there- these do appear to match the original leaf buttons, green included.  The question is whether or not that's a good idea in the case of the green.  Personally, I always thought the green leaf buttons were a bit off.  Of course, I never saw them lit up in the arcade (how come no games ever took advantage of those buttons, anyway?) and I must say the pic Shawn posted of his green button when lit, looks much nicer than it does when dark.  So maybe they don't need a change- after all, almost everybody that's ordering these is lighting them, anyway.

But really, the green doesn't matter so much to me, as I'm really in this for the red, dark blue, and clear.  Those all look outstanding (to me), and big thanks to Shawnzilla for pulling this off.

BTW, check out the first pic in this post:

and look at the clear button that's just below the blue one. 

Scope out the effect it picks up just from the lit red button next to it.  That's way dope.

Euch (no offense). But I'll go with clears & green lights anyway.

LOL No offense taken.

I am going to try and make Cherry Microswitches available with these.

Has anyone ordered bulk on Happ before? They seem to have the lowest bulk rate for the switches, but of course they show you no shipping info even during checkout. So, am I going to get raped on shipping?
