    I has 100 buttons, I SWEAR! I even have Avid's buttons until he gets here tomorrow....

    OMG!!! I am so sorry!! I totally thought I had saved your image before going through the thread... I totally owe you ice cream or something T___T

    I am also realizing that there are a few in the original pdf that aren't in mine, because I guess they were submitted to the google doc but had no presence in the forum thread whatsoever? Ughh. Oh well. PAX will still be superfantastical for everyone I am sure =)

    XD Ice cream will work! What will you be doing on Saturday so that I can hunt you down. I think I'll just be wandering around the expo hall and such. i can give u my cell number :D

    Nephthys: If you decide to update YOUR version, let me know & I'll update the one I'm hosting.

    Also, if there's anyone here who HAS buttons, but did NOT get a PM from me in the last 2 weeks, PLEASE PLEASE send me a PM. It's in your best interest!

    If you look at the program linked in today's news post on the main PA site, they've apparently got a little button game going on too. Oh boy.

    So guess who finally got to go home and take a picture of his buttons?

    The way my cut worked, it ended up with a white rim that actually looks pretty nice.
    Hurrah, I can finally get off the design-only list! Can't wait to start swapping buttons this weekend! I ended up with 111, so hopefully they'll last most of the time.

    Yeah so I was out of town and never got a photo of my 100+ buttons online for you guys, but me and all the buttons will be at PAX tomorrow (and probably the pre-PAX breakfast too).

    Sorry for falling through on that :oops:

    Well. My flight is in a little less than 23 hours and there is no sign--or hope--for the long-lost box o' Soups buttons to get to me in time.

    I personally apologise for that--and I want to blame the Postal Service rather badly; but I have a fear of them getting angry.

    Hee, i'll tape it on my pvc, i don't think i should stick it through.
    So my cosplay, so you can find me will be: Saturday Harley Quinn and on Sunday I will be Bubbles from the Powerpuff girls. Not as noticable...but I think one whole day in PVC will be enough on my body.

    You're going to put a hat on your shoulder? Seems like the button would stay better...

    Yeah, I know but this was way before the pre PAX this or that started and all I meant by legit was I've never met him face to face until now.

    Doesn't matter it was MY first trade and I am excited. :mrgreen:

    Find a girl with a frog backpack and a DS bag with the buttons on it while wearing a CCFT shirt, you find me.

    Find a shaved-head-glasses wearing guy wearing my button, find The Boyfriend. And yeah, he has some of mine.

    If you did not find me today...which I KNOW you haven't, Find me tomorrow. Look for the same frog backpack...but just a short half-Mexican girl in Harajuku clothes and frog accessories! I promise, you will see me.

    Also!!

    LewieP and LPM, I WILL find you...or you find me.

    P.S. I'll be at the concert tonight! ....Who isn't??? Aside from the folks at BYOC, the Freeplays, The Guild, The Movies, etc...

    EDIT TO ADD!!
    Recently, the little area in front of/close by the Enforcers' table...to the left of BYOC...has become the little area get-together of the Buttoneers and--on ocassions--the Cookie Brigade. You may find some folks there trading.

    Let me say this, If you only have 1 button on your shirt, no one is gonna come up to you and ask.
    Please sport at a few of the same buttons so we can tell you are in the Button Exchange.

    Currently I have collected 37 buttons and have about 40 more to give out.
    Im wearing a black myPAXblog shirt and have a bookbag w/ buttons. Hit me up, tommorow or Sunday.

    Wow, lots of fun trading today. Lots of buttons moving around outside BYOC. I still have 40 or so of my buttons left? Kind of hard to tell, considering how I've been counting 'em. I think I may start giving 'em away some of 'em to take a load off... but it's been quite fun trading them off.

    Let's meet at the Omegathon Round 3 Serpent Theater to do some more trading? I missed the CCST people and missed out on the pre-PAX dinner event, so... BUTTONS!

    The ad-hoc button meet-ups in front of BYOC were great! It was really fantastic to meet so many of you! =) I have so many buttons that I no longer have anything I can put them on which won't be in a place where they'll be easily torn off by the Cookie Brigade box or my backpack. =( I think CuZZa's scarf idea was definitely top notch in the "good place to put buttons" department. =)
