Looks really good. I think its perfect as it is now. You could spend a ton of time on something like this and you need to draw a line under it at some point. How many hours must Steve & Norman have put into this already? I say off to the Button Lady or German guy or whoever will make the pins, for a technical opinion before the production starts.
 Well done guys.

Yes a lot of time went into this, to be honest more than I wanted to spend. I don't know how much time Norman spent, but I know he is a busy man and I'm grateful for his efforts on this. I supplied him with the images I wanted to use and he worked on them, I don't have the imagination for this sort of thing. I did the green backgrounds for the text, the text and gold effect and even that limited input has seen me spend about twelve hours over the past couple of weeks. I think what started as just a quick project became something that we decided to try and do properly.
It's almost done now. Button Lady has the pin image after another last minute tweak today and as for the keyrings, the printer should have it all finished later this week or early next week. Dylan is ready to put the little pictures into the keyrings when we have everything ready.

Steve;
Like every else you have done with this forum. You never let "almost good enough" be the norm.
It is either "the best" or you don't do it.
I for one, appreciate all of it.

| Thanks John. Update on the pins. Patty (Button Lady) is happy with the graphics and it's over to her for the production. My bit is done for now, until Patty sends me the finished items. She will send half of the first batch of pins to me and bring the other half to Calhoun for the axeman to distribute.

It was kinda done very confidentially so not to embarrass the axeman

That is really nice Patty, thank you for your kindness to us all.
Something about this place brings out the best in us, I just wish I had something to offer asides from the sporadic donation.
