Yeah I’m sure we could work something out
Okay, can we talk colors of toppers? How does one determine what color to have their topper? Why is felt typically green? I'm asking these questions because I want to be really mindful of having the right one from a color and aesthetic standpoint.
- Are bright colors better for dimly lit rooms?
- What if your table has LEDs?
- What if you have a really bright room?
- Should a topper correspond with chip colors?

With custom toppers, most guys are going to want something to match their theme. That being said, you should be mindful of crazy designs that can mask chips in the pot or make it difficult to see the board when dealt.
It’s rare, but topper colors similar to chips or fantastically intricate designs can make gameplay less ideal.
Yeah, that's what I'm wondering since I can't test different toppers. I'm assuming a more darker topper for ease of seeing the displayed cards. But if you do a darker color, should chips then be lighter?

I'd avoid light colored designs, like white or bright yellow. Unless your players are fastidious about cleanliness you are going to get a lot of hand-smudge where players rake pots.
I'm having a designed topper artwork made. Anybody that has designed a topper, can you answer this question as I have no idea.
I'll also need your playing surface dimensions (I've got that covered) and how much printed bleed do you need beyond that (usually 2-3 inches)?

One inch bleed around the whole topper, so if your dimensions are 74” x 32” it should be 76” x 34”

While I agree with not going for excessive all white, I do love me a lighter colored topper
Just really depends what look you’re going for
Thanks for the reply. I'm confused though, wouldn't a 1-inch bleed be 75" x 33" ?

Add one inch around the outside, which would make the total + 2”
74” + 1” on one side + 1” on the other side

No, it's 1 inch ALL AROUND your topper design. Check this out: https://www.bindersinc.com/resources/what-is-bleed-printing

.ai preferred, but any vector based format will also work (for example .svg, .eps, etc.)

Hello, new member here. Has anyone ordered or designed a Lakers themed tablet topper?

Wow! Can you make this for a Barrington topper? (74x32)

I'm not a basketball fan, but that is pretty cool.
Nice job on the simplicity. I could see marking up the betting line to look more like "the key", but that would clutter up what is essentially a prefect design.

Wow. So cool. I’ll send you a PM

Can't take the credit -- I forget who on PCF sent the initial idea to me. I've loved it ever since, just never got around to making one for someone.
I can take the credit for this one though. Any baseball fans out there?
Did you happen to put the baseball stitching as the betting line to see what it looks like? I realize your design looks like a baseball's actual stitching, but a circular baseball stitch would stand out as an obvious betting line.

That's a good idea!
