Identify each other at convention. Lets take a vote! >DRAFTS

lonelyfarmgirl · Jun 28, 2014

A suggestion was mentioned on another thread about using an identifying something to make us known to each other at convention this fall. So I propose some suggestions and a vote. What should it be?
Shirt?
Hat?
Aprons?
Pin?
Stickers?

What could be something that is worn all week so we can find each other that will be obvious and visible? I know someone who makes these sort of things for a living. If we could come up with something good I can present it to her and have her make some for the users here.

Please lets have discussion about this.

I am thinking some kind of a pin or sticker, maybe a hat, since lots of folks will be wanting to wear shirts with their rabbitry on it or breed group affiliations.

MamaSheepdog · Jun 28, 2014

I vote for a pin. It would be really neat if it could incorporate the web address and our usernames.

Zass · Jun 28, 2014

I vote a pin too, just like MSD said with web address and our usernames

Miss M · Jun 28, 2014

I think a pin would probably work out best. I might be able to post Galadriel's concept tomorrow or Monday. She was going to have me put it on the distinctive RT blue, with the header text, web address, and a spot for the username.

Sagebrush · Jun 29, 2014

I think a pin would work out great as well. Will have to have a slot for username though, how else would we know who is who?

Homer · Jun 29, 2014

I think you guys have the right idea with the pin too. I just said sew on patch in the other thread from my scooter tramp days I guess.

They would be a great way to find each other at our local shows as well.

OnTheBrightside · Jun 29, 2014

Homer, I didn't think about that but it would be awesome. I would love to know if there were other RT members at local shows too. This is a must! haha.

Sounds like pin has the vote, but IDK if user name is possible. someone have an idea for this? Unless.... Hmmm. You know I have a local friend with one of those button making machines. You know, the metal circular ones? I wonder what the medium is, paper under a clear cover? If that's the case I bet every button could be custom made. SO lets have a design people. Who's game?

I harassed Miss M in the convention thread for ya. I know one of her kids was working on a design for this.

Miss M · Jul 7, 2014

I replied. :lol: post235360.html#p235360

What size buttons can that machine make? That would make a huge difference in what the button design could contain.

I was thinking the usual ~2x3 name tag badges that could be printed on sticky paper or printed on plain paper and slipped inside a clear name tag pin, that sort of thing. But if we go with round pins, we need to know the size of the button it can make.

lonelyfarmgirl · Jul 9, 2014

I think the 2X3 with the slip in paper is an equally good idea. Everyone could buy their own pin and receive the design to print out themselves. I guess which one would be up to the people here. I think my friends machine can do both sizes, the 2 1/2 inch and the 3 1/2 or 4 inch. I guess the people should decide which one and if the metal circles win the vote I'll call him. Otherwise I wont. He can be kind of windy,

If you do the round metal buttons, just leave a blank space in the design. Then each person can write their username on the button themselves with a Sharpie.

Miss M · Jul 10, 2014

Okay, here are Galadriel's rough drafts, with some rough coloring in GIMP, and my username where you could put yours:

Badge 1, simple with the familiar header:

Badge 2, fanciful with a bun chewing on the username box:

Badge 3, a different take on the RT header bunny:

Keep in mind that the original pencil in there mixed with computer coloring makes for a little oddness.

What do y'all think?

MaggieJ · Jul 10, 2014

Very nice work, Galadriel! I like them all.

:thankyou:

Miss M · Jul 10, 2014

Thanks! I know she'll appreciate that.

I guess I need to set up a poll later, to see which one everyone wants finished. Also, whether we need round versions instead, for a button, what size button, all that.

Homer · Jul 10, 2014

Great job Galadriel!!! :clap:

unk: Thanks for your help.

Just a thought but hold a poll for which one to use. Then make it a .pdf so we can download our own, edit in our name, print and buy our own holder/pin to put it in.

Sagebrush · Jul 10, 2014

I like them all, though I like the second one the best. What can I say, I like the bunny chewing on the name slot.

Galadriel · Jul 10, 2014

Aaawwwww... shucks, guys!

I finally had to lock myself away in my room and crack down on the bottom two. :wr_sweat:

The first is all Mom's, and she colored my two on the computer, as I'm no geek. :teknology:

Zass · Jul 10, 2014

The bunny nibbling the name box!!!! Too cute!!!
