Cubesmith Tiles VS. Stickers???

I'm looking for a new set of colors for my 3x3 Rubik's cube, they are getting pretty worn and cut my knuckles when I do finger tricks. Now, I see there are "tiles" and there are "stickers." What is the difference, and which is better.

Along with the tile set, there is textured and smooth, what is the difference here?

Thanks!

That should answer pretty much everything.

Well that did give me alot of info.

Still, could you give me any info on the difference between the textured and smooth tiles?

*Also*
"Each set includes enough tiles for one complete side of a cube in each of the
six standard colors, plus a 'Cubesmith' logo tile printed on white."

Does this mean I need to buy 6 sets for 4.50 a piece or is 4.50 the price for all six?

(six faces x 9 stickers per face) + 1 white cubesmith sticker = 1 sticker set

1 sticker set = $4.50

alrighty, do you know the difference between the textured and smooth and/or which is better?

Well texture has little bumps on the surface so theoretically, they should have better grip. I heard some pretty bad stories from texture tiles, I'm sure you can use the search button and find some.

Smooth is self-explanatory.

Pretty much looks like its just a preference, I'll probley try a set of textured.

I think there's a thread on the twistypuzzle forums about this. That's where it's been discussed pretty thoroughly.
