OK, I created 3 buttons real quick so that I could get this done. No rhyme or reason to them, other than I made one of my avatar (which comes off as kind of egotistical, but it is what it is, oh well).

Random button A (bought 100, and it is round despite looking square here):
It won't be too hard, if you have Twitter I will be constantly updating where I am for the button ppl to find me. or if that doesn't work just yell my name really loud.

My buttons have shipped. They should be here by the end of the week. I'll take pics when they get here.
On the discount, they charged the full amount to my credit card, then refunded the discount. I had the code in there, then mentioned the code and how it did not appear to apply the discount in the special instructions section.
Okay. I am forcing myself to order these before I change my mind again. Template lines left on this version. Will be removed when I send them in.
Very cool design, sumi. I want one.
Sumi is always cool.

Holy poop, sorry guys. I havn't had more than 5 minutes at my laptop at all for over a week and now I get to update the op with all of these fine buttons. I too have a pair of buttons to post when my camera is returned to me.
I saw talk of the button meet-up. Tentatively, we were going to meet right out on the steps of the convention center when it lets out Sunday evening. If someone knows of a better suggestion then by all means make it known. That being said, we can't do it in the hotel lobby for obvious reasons, and a lot of the forumers are split between the Post-Pax Dinner and the Twitter Meet-up going on at the same time later, so it would need to be right after the convention and close by.

I finally ordered my buttons last night... I am hoping 100 is enough. This is my first go-round with Buttoneering, and I figured the most appropriate thing to start with would be the Gnometeer I made a few months ago. This is the original image, I modified the background just a bit for the button dimensions, but it is effectively this:
I went with something a little more simple than last time. I was messing around with metroid sprites for a few hours trying to do something cool but failing that I went with something that I think works out better.
I'm still trying to come up with a good one for myself, but here's one of two buttons for Assassins players, one for guys and one for girls. Going to tweak it a bit but I doubt it'll change too much from this.
It'll be in the Adobe Illustrator .eps template for a 1.5 inch button. The text won't be rasterized like the image below it, so it should come through clean, or as clean as the printer can manage.

What I mean is that on a 1.5" button that text is going to be mighty tiny.

I exclaimed "Khoo is my Sensei!"
So if memes make great shirts,
And Pod Six is Jerks,
Then Moe, Khoo and I had our day.

Hey Moe, way to quote...MOE! ....priceless...

After:
I had to stretch the bricks, but that wasn't that hard. I will probably look better as a button. Ima order them soon.
My wife likes buttons, and was sad she had none to trade last year.
So, shes gonna rock these. See you all at the pubcrawl, we're cruising with Ravenclaw.
Hawt. I'll be looking for one of those on the drinking trail.
