Mousepads (custom options)

Hi!

 

I'm looking for places to make custom mousepads, in larger sizes than what Artscow and Vistaprint (etc) offer. It seems like the only the size anyone ever has is in the 8" x 9" sizes. I would like to make them in a variety of sizes and be able to use images I create or have on my computer on the product. So maybe you folk can help me out. :)

 

Thanks guys!

 

P.S

I'm leaving this here because I'm curious about that too, or at least higher grade mouse pdas. 

You could do custom card mats for things like MTG, they are basically mouse pad material. Friend of mine bought a card mat right from a local card shop and has been using it for a keyboard size mousepad for like a year now. 

 

They may not be the greatest mouse pad material for gaming, but they sure work

here's some guy reviewing one, it appears to be a similar thin mouse-pad style material that playmat's Ive seen are made of, and they do track well 

edit

it appears that stuff will ship really slow (due to labor disputes on shipping ports), thus it's on sale, so not a bad time to get one price wise, but you'd have to be patient I guess. 

...

so I checked in to other play mat maker and they have the same delay.

Wow, thanks for the video and link! :D

 

The sizes they have looks just right, and the price seems great too! A delay wouldn't bother me as long as it isn't months and months.

 

I just wonder how well a mouse would scroll over it though. I need a mousepad for gaming because my mouse is really difficult to slide over my desktop and the small mousepad I have now works great, but with 7inches for room it is just terrible... -_-

I honestly don't know. I'm ordering one, but not until I know what I want on it. I imagine it's exactly the same as mouse mat material since they also sell those, so it will work fine,  but idk if it would be the same quality as the gaming ones I love like from steel series.

Oh, okay then. Well I think I will be getting one as well (when I figure out what I want on it as well), but if you get before me I would love to know your opinion on them as mousepads. :)
