    I also will be bringing my man purse for button purposes. I'm keeping mine in a bag, maybe buttoning one on the man purse, and then buttoning all the ones i get in trade on it, so it will become more crowded as the weekend goes on.

    This what I'll be doing as well.


    Also, ^5 apotheos, I'm glad I'm seeing more and more (forum) names I recognize will be there.

    I've been having such a pain in the ass dealing with them. I had to do everything manually/over the phone. Therefore I have no order history. The invoice has not been paid (even tho billing was supposed to take care of it like 2 weeks ago) and I have yet to get a reply as to if they actually completed and shipped my order like they said (this was supposed to happen monday july 28th) It's getting close to the cuttoff period and I'm worried. Honestly, I'm sure if you have it shipped to the states it would be much easier.

    Wow, thank god we set a cutoff date. I've got over 80 people on the google doc list so far! (And if you're not on the list already, then go go go!) If we let this run all the way through next week, we'd prob have over 100 people and we'd all have to order ANOTHER set of buttons!


    Also:
    It has come to my attention that some people are making/ordering buttons but are NOT posting here.

    I'm not claiming to be in charge here, but I AM in charge of something that depends on the buttons. So, It is REALLY important that you let us know you're planning on participating. You're going to miss out on something incredibly cool and important if you don't.

    What should I do about my 5 bonus button? I already filled out the form for my avi button, should I fill it out again with all my bonus buttons in one submission, or fill out separate submissions, or fill out a new submission with all my buttons including my avi one?

    Don't go crying to anyone when you miss out because it will be all your fault and no one will feel sorry for you.


    Infact, if I had the power, I would ban your ass if you posted about how angry or sad you are about missing out.

    Yeah that's a really cool design. I second the request to know the source.

    Is there a way to check if the google.doc has us? I submitted and I don't remember if I submitted ze bonus button.

    My memory is currently at its limit for Rock Band lyrics and riffs. It has no time for things like pin numbers and whether I posted buttons to documents!

    Chaosisorder: I only have one button on your submission on the list.

    To all who are doing bonus buttons but whom have already added themselves to the list. Go ahead and add yourself a second time, just leave out any buttons you've already submitted. if you can't remember if you've submitted a button, just resubmit it. I'm going to be closing the google doc around the 18th so that [strikethrough]Glorious Leader[/strikethrough] Moe_Fwacky has a chance to work his magic with it before he leaves on his super-awesome CCST.

    I like it.

    edit: Moe, that button you made for apotheos has the template over the art. If he submits that, won't there be lines on his button? Anyway, I'm almost done with my version, so maybe he can use it instead.

    edit 2: Here it is (*hint* You can email them with a change to the design if you want to use mine. I'll give you the .PSD file to send in :winky:):

    "apotheos" is actually in lowercase. All my interesting fonts seem to be caps only, unfortunately.

    um, i did the template over the art for centering's sake. The one he posted is the one he's sending in. That one just has the outline at the very edge (where it gets tucked into the back).

    You mean the challenge thereof? Chip, and therefor his challenge? That's what I'm seeing.

    Now, for my raising to the fifth power, make it snappy. I want gills, wings, and a few extra thumbs out of this.
