haha I've been getting like 90% "no gap" in 2 of the forums I go to!

Courtneyh: Your ring is beautiful. I think yours works well with GAP because its 2 colors. If it had no gap, it might look too "busy". But mine will be a 1ct center stone with a 1mm halo. So....gosh I need to think about it more!

I would have to say with gap because that's actually my ring on the first one :smile1: I'm on PS too. It doesnt look too big of a gap in person. And the stone is actually raised so it doesnt look like the setting is for a bigger stone. Like I said on the other forum, it depends on you. I personally like the "floating look" :p But either way, I think halos are pretty. Actually, any kind of ring for me is pretty :yes:

i was going to say the same thing...the stone is raised so it definatly doesnt look like the setting is for a bigger stone...i agree with the "floating look" i think its so different and pretty!

You're ring is awesome! I hope you dont mine me posting it :shame:. I usually save fantastic ring pics that will inspire my own e-ring design.

If it was my ring, I'd say no gap. But ultimately, it is your ring, so it is whatever you love! I think sometimes little details are much more exaggerated in pictures too, so in some pics the gap looks huge, but in person I may not even notice it. Go for what you love.

:smile1: No worries. I also have a folder in my computer full of designs that I like! Have you seen both in person though? That might help you decide which one is best for you. I know it's hard to decide, but either way, you're going to have a really nice ring! Oh one more advice though...you might want to raise your setting a little bit if you want your wedding ring to sit flush. That is what I'm having a hard time with right now is finding a wedding band that would match mine.
