Please Make that happen RED... I am all for the idea, as I am sure many others are as well. I will make sure as I pass out my buttons to relay the info of the jar to others.
Last year there was a jar set up at BYOC to drop buttons in to give to Mike and Jerry. That came up halfway through PAX and was kind of last minute. Is there plans on doing something like that from the get go this year?
Also, I have maybe 10-15 of my 2010 PAX Button as well, for any first timers.
I can make that happen again if someone wants to communicate to everyone that its there for people to drop buttons off in.
I think I might need to check on mine. I ordered on July 27th and haven't received an email RE shipping yet. Seems like a lot of folks who ordered after me have received theirs?

Yeah, shoot them an email. They should be able to let you know what's up.

I am slow ordering this year, but I finally sat down tonight and tightened up my design, which was drawn by my good friend, Teresa! I love it, and hope I get it in time to exchange at PAX. LOL.

"we're just doing what smalllady told us to do" - @Heels
I made a community heraldry for last PAX East and this Prime, and for the last few years people kept saying it would be cool to have an identifying Buttoneer button. So, I made one, based on the look of the heraldry, but stripping out the East and non-button events.
I have my own 2-1/4 button machine, would I be able to ask you for a digital copy of that design so I can make some even larger ones?
I should note, my buttons arrived in mega ultra quick time. It must've been no more than 5 days between my order and the date I received them (got them late last week, or was it early this week? Either way, super quick).
EDIT: Also Red, you're crazy! I imagine your buttons will be awesome though, your troll/coolface button was epic.
After speaking to both Red and VT, we *will* have a bucket up at BYOC for you to drop your buttons into.
I'm going to put them together and try to present them to Gabe and Tycho at the Sunday signing. So ALL buttons need to be at BYOC by *NOON* on Sunday, otherwise, they're not going on the board for fame.
I'm joining the game WAY late, but i'm thinking about getting some buttons. We have a few days left before PAX but being so close to the wire, I'm a bit scared that I'll end up with 150+ buttons when i get back from Seattle. Wut do?

Don't put the date on them. If they show up late, bring them next time. My buttons this year are from 2009 that have somehow missed three PAXes. They're still good!

Ya, I took a closer look at the button site and there is a rush option. 1-10 days plus a rush with the discount = I will have some sweet buttons. Hope y'all like snowmen.
I'll upload my design soon.

I am sad that I didn't do buttons this year. I am going to PAX Dev, and with the cost of that plus the loss of two days I don't have time. Plus, I have a whole vest covered in buttons from last year that has hung in the closet since... last year. The panels are also better this year than ever, and I barely have time for the show floor. I think I have 3.5 hours of show floor time. I'm going to have to drop some panels but I've dropped some already due to conflicts with other panels. As fun as it is swapping buttons (AND IT IS RIDICULOUSLY FUN, DON'T GET ME WRONG), I just don't have time and I don't want to do it half-assed.

Also, ship to your hotel.
I thought of that, but I'd rather risk getting them a bit late at home. Purebuttons site says they can do 24 hour turnaround order. "This is an additional 125% of your order total and only available for orders under 2,500 buttons." Not bad.

I finally got around to designing and ordering buttons. The order cost about 111$ due to the rush shipping I needed to order, and the button designs are low-tech, but they'll serve.
I also ended up butchering my screen-name on the button site since I think I lost my original confirm email.

Send me a PM with your e-mail address and I'll fix it for you.

On the BUTTONEERING Site, there are 177 buttons listed, is that a record?
Don't know. This is the first year we've tried to keep anything close to an official count.
I'll count the buttons on my hat from last year when I get home. It won't be an official number from 2010, but call it 75% of the total number maybe...

My button isnt trollface this time, but will be awesome.
(I showed it to beta_angel on my birthday so he can attest to the awesomeness of both the buttons... but I might have been a little tipsy and might have imagined the whole thing... WHO KNOWS)
I will post pics when I get them on thurs or fri and upload to buttoneering site then as well.

Oh, I saw them. They're completely rad. No doubt about it, BigRed is in the running for best button this year.

Of the buttoneer button? I can send you a copy. I just ask that you not make crazy amounts, because I have 200 I'll be needing to hand out. We could probably use some extras, if we have over 170 people who registered on the site (I'm sure there are some who didn't post their buttons). I'll track down the file I sent off and respond to your PM.
I may parcel out some to other buttoneers to get them distributed faster and lighten my load.
To those who are wondering why some people who ordered after you already had their buttons shipped, Katie from Pure Buttons informed me that square buttons take longer (but not longer than the 7-10 business day guaranteed turnaround.)

I got a few close-up shots of the 2008 button case. That was the best idea ever!

The bigger the better Big Red. Your button was the centerpiece of my shadowbox last year!

I think 177 is a little higher total but not interestingly so.

Oh shit I only ordered 100!
Welp...
It has to be the Button button.
I never finish anyth
