Due to some design issue, the previous GB attempt is a no-go. This new C thread is opened to get things right!
All discussions welcomed although I probably won’t be able to answer all of them. Many many many thanks to those who are still supporting Moon, and doing your best to help out!

Updates:
GB open: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=90379.0/#new
01-JUL-2017 Update:
Updated render to reflect new logo and weight design.
I did not hear many complain about color options this time, so I assume most people are happy with what’s offered.
To clarify, logo is offered in stainless or brass (no extra cost), stripes and weight are aluminum by default and can be upgraded to brass with extra cost.
GB opening soon.
27-JUN-2017 Update:
Color options: Based on stats from previous “GB”, I eliminated 3 colors as they are too close to some other colors: Coral Black and Black Oak as they are too close to Ink Black; Pumpkin Orange as it’s too close to Carbon Orange.
The surviving colors are: Ink Black, Starry Night Grey, Titanium Grey, Carbon Orange, Champagne Gold, Light Grey, Blue Magenta, Wine Red, Violet Purple, Light Purple, Military Green and Fern Green.
It was not easy to name/translate the color names from Chinese and if you not remember which is which, please refer to this album: http://imgur.com/a/2yFWZ It still includes the three eliminated colors but I listed color names under pics.
We will still allow free combination of top, bottom cases and plate. Logo will be made in stainless steel or brass at your choice with no extra cost. Weight and stripes are aluminum and can be updated to brass with extra cost. Please note that we will not allow picking colors for weight or stripes any more for cost control. Weight will be in the same color as top case, stripes will be in the same color as bottom case.
I want to hear voices before Friday, planning to re-open GB this weekend if everything’s going well!

As some of you might have noticed, the title has been change to Democratic Republic of Moon. What this means is EVE would like to invite the community to actively participate in the logo design. Ofc the Moon team will do the same thing meanwhile. Base on how many designs we received, we will pick 5 logos or so and do a VOTE thing! Last but not least, if a community logo design wins, the creator will get a Moon board for $0 (I guess it means FREE).
Before you guys get too hyped, I want to point out due to EVE has pre-made some of the cases, the cut for weight is already in there. To fix this we are now changing the weight design to a weight bar, the designs will be CNC’d onto the weight.
The weight now design is now: http://imgur.com/ykCvcQl (subject to minor changes)
To submit a design, simply post it in the thread. I’ll get an album going after work tonight. GAME ON!
