    Extra buttons in the process of ordering. Given that the turnaround time has gone down to 9-10 days, I am thinking I could get these in time. Here are the designs. I want to get them in 1.25 inch size.

    Both of them are Doctor Who-ish.

    And this one.

    *Keels. Dies. WANTS BOTH*

    I am willing to hand over an LHH Button for one of those. (Maybe both since you are super-hot like that. ...So I've heard BA state... *Shifty-eyes; avoiding a beat-down from BA for adding words in mouth*)


    HOW DARE Y... Wait... well.... okay yeah, he is XD

    Oh you... tee hee.

    Yes. Got away with that one...barely.

As long as I get most of the irc people, and some of the early adopters, I will be happy :) Besides... there's not going to be many that I wont be able to get... and plus, this is assuming that everyone with designs with participate and not flake...

    For the sake of sanity in this thread, and to keep it down to less than 100 pages, I suggest we not post next year's button designs yet :(

    They'll just get lost in the pruning that will happen before the boards explode next year.

    It will more than likely hit 100 even without the posting of next year's stuff.

    Don't read the next bit if you've not seen the last episode in the series that's just finished! Thanks, Snickers, forgot about the difference in time when you lot can watch it!
    At the end of the last series, when Dr Who went back into the Tardis, I just cried, cos he was all on his own again. LP's daddy walked in, said whats wrong? I started explaining how he'd had to leave Rose, that he was all alone again... he just said Oh, yes, I've seen you like this over Dr Who, and just walked away! heartless man.

    Oh, totally, I forgot we have UK folks participating, I'm sure you've loved the Doctor longer than I have hehe :P.

    BA got me watching a couple of years ago since she has been watching the show since she was 3 years old. Literally, 3. I will save one special for you, LPM.

    I am not ordering more than 100. It was already $9 shipping for that bunch, and lots and lots of people only have 50 buttons so it is entirely possible I won't be able to get every button anyway. As long as I have traded most of my buttons, I'll be happy.

    I thought long and hard (kekeke) over the weekend, and I think I'm going to stay with 50. Why? Because I don't know where I'm going to store 100 effing pins after PAX. I don't even know where I am putting 50... or what I'll actually DO with them.

    Also, do I only get on the "Invested" list when I recieve my buttons? Cause I totally ordered them 2 days ago.

    If you're willing to pay increased shipping, http://www.wackybuttons.com/turnaround.htm wackybuttons looks like it can still get buttons out in time. I'll probably end up using them.

    It's still cheaper to use Purebuttons with a rush on the order than it is to use those guys... Purebuttons=Pure win

    So, to re-cap whats been said before. As we keep having to do :P

    INVESTED is ONLY for people who have RECEIVED BUTTONS

    HAVE DESIGN is for people who have come up with a design, but not necessarily ordered buttons.

    To expound upon that, because I keep getting asked, If you have a design, for god sake post it. Just because you ordered them and added yourself to the google doc list you don't automatically get moved to the invested list, you need to post a picture. We are not looking for people to tell us how much they are participating, we are looking for people to show us. It's what brings us socially together.
