I've considered this, and the issue isn't the tracking. Most modern mice will track fine on just about any surface. The problem is the feel and friction of the material. While the covers work great for tablets, it would give a very unnatural feeling as a mouse pad. I would have to take a long look into the manufacturing process of them, before I could consider selling. It is however, something I will look further into in the future.

I can't speak for Horo, but from the pictures our covers appear to be quite different. While they inherently serve the same purpose, I believe each of us is offering a unique product.

The problem is when you print images there's no consistent pattern. Most modern sensors have automatic exposure which might have issues with multi colored images. If it was just two shades it would most likely be fine but if you have like a god damn rainbow it won't work properly. For casual play its probably fine but probably not for higher level play.

You're both selling what is essentially giant custom stickers for wacom tablets. However yours are reasonably priced while Horo's aren't

Got mine yesterday.
Had just a little white on the edges, but I trimmed it off.
This surface is really slick. I barely feel any friction.
I've already noticed some really small scratches, but I can only seem them when I angle it in the light. I have the habit of pushing down on my pen really hard when I play, so I kind of expected this. I just need to lighten my grip a bit.
I'd recommend this to anyone who drags.

Could've been slightly larger/better cut as there's a white line and it's little short from one side.

Otherwise no complaints, much better surface than my worn tablet and it's only 5$, so go buy one if you haven't already.

Thanks for the review, and I'm sorry for the poor cutting. I'm still working on getting some of models dimensions down.

Skype, osu, discord, whatever you prefer to use is fine with me!

Could I order the cover to fit my whole tablet?

Absolutely. Keep in mind that I currently can't do cutouts for buttons. If there's enough demand for it, I'll look into patterns, but right now it's not possible for me to do it accurately enough.

I have been using the cover for a little over 2 weeks:

The cover feels very smooth but it does slowly turn a little more rough from dragging.
When it turns rough, it kind of feels like dragging on a piece of paper but it is still smoother than paper.

The looks of the cover is fairly similar to the picture I requested but it does have some faint white spots on it
that is only visible if you look at it from an angle with light reflecting off of it. Over time, your tablet area and scratches are
also going to be fairly visible on the cover but it isn't noticeable if you don't look at it from an angle with light.
Also, the cut on the cover wasn't 100% straight and the width was a tiny bit longer than I requested.
However, that I guess that can be fixed by yourself and I guess it is better to have it been little longer than risking it
to be a little shorter.

Shipping took about 3 business days (5 counting weekends) and it came on the same day that Fifty estimated
it to come. Fifty also replied back to me fairly quickly after I contacted him and everything went pretty smoothly.

Overall, I do recommend Fifty's tablet cover especially if you drag all the time on it like me :)

Had mine for my 420 for a month. Worked well and scratches didn't seem to have a negative effect.

Could it replace an older cover or is a problem? I mean will it stick to the surface normally?

Absolutely. Although the adhesive is fairly strong (so it doesn't move around when you're playing) they are designed to be removable.

So, as a consumer of this product, was the quality of the picture very high? There's only been one review since Fifty has gotten his new printer and idk how the quality is now, heard his previous printer kinda washed out the colors. Care to share?

You can view many pictures on Discord. http://hnng.moe/35t The quality has greatly improved in comparison to my old printer.

Hey Fifty, I've been wondering whether you've had any more thoughts on expanding onto mousepad covers? I recently got a new mousepad and the material feels slightly unpleasant when it's cold, and I was thinking I might benefit from trying a mousepad cover.

unless they make a perfect sensor that trakes perfectly fine with every surface and every color, that isn't a good idea for competitve gaming.. but if you just want a good looking mouse pad for.. i dunno.. anything that doesn't require fast/accurate movement and fifty got a nice surface for it that would be neat

tl;dr: a mouse pad with a pic on it is a bad idea for osu or compitive gaming in general
there was a talk about that few pages backward

I'd be willing to at least give it a shot and see how it works out for me. I tend to take everything Zenny says as an exaggeration because of how super OCD he is about his mice, and I'm unsure if I'd even notice the difference.

And yeah, I'm not super-competitive or anything in the first place, though you can probably tell

How is it exaggeration when I have proof for my claims? Its a well known fact mice perform suboptimally on different colored mousepads.

Tbh if Fifty is making these mousepads happen I wont mind buying one for use with my HTPC but you definitely wont catch me playing osu with it.

Because you'd notice any difference no matter how tiny, when it's something that I might not even notice at all

I have in fact thought some more about this. I've got two strawpolls here, and on discord, that will help determine if this is viable or not.

Rubber mousepads are best. Washable, durable, consistent, and stable.
Tho I prefer polyester cloth surfaces

Glass mousepad would be nice too since no one makes them anymore. Never forget SS Icemat

Glass would be difficult to ship at a reasonable price.

In other news, custom rubber mousepads will be available soon, as the most voted for option.
