just fyi, the hexagon on the 89 forever emblem has soft, curved corners, like so:
how do i resize?
What do you mean? Resize the graphic in your post?
Best way is to not use the [img] tag.
Use the HTML img tag instead with the optional width added as a quoted pixel number or a quoted percentage of available screen width.
Example: <img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs014.ash2/34064_402745671922_622096922_4860544_3513422_n.jpg" width="100"> which would result in your image scaled to 100 pixels wide:
or you could do <img src="http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs014.ash2/34064_402745671922_622096922_4860544_3513422_n.jpg" width="30%"> for your image occupying 30% of your posts areas available screen width (this is fun to check out if you resize your browser window and watch the image change size)(also [man, I love parenthesis!] using percentages are great for scaling down big images that are wider than the screen area, say "85%" for a nice use of available area, or if you want three fairly big images side-by-side use 25 or 30% each to get them all onscreen):
Hope that's what you meant!
(BTW: A nice thing about doing this, is that if someone right-clicks the image and saves it, it'll save the full sized image.)

Yowzers! You keep cranking out images like that and I'll gladly put my foot in my mouth!
Sweet!

Just wondering!
What, you mean just scaling up the images? Eww, no. Then they just look pixled, feathered, and groos.
I don't know... Some video-game console emulators have graphic engines that enhance the image and while not ideal they can make for a slightly spiffier, less pixelated image.

Also, the pixelation, a la 8 bit, I believe is intentional. But on a 1" button I think it will look fine.

Maybe I misread but I'm pretty sure purebuttons dot com offers 100 pins for 22 cents each. Let me quadruple check. But I'm willing to get the ball rolling on these. Not as cool as the geometric answers but would look great on a lanyard at a con.

I totally agree, but that is the correct scaling. They didn't worry too much when they created the badges because they knew they were going to be very small. I don't have that luxury. I plan on working on it, but we'll see.

Not sure where you're getting the $20 a set price...
Actually, the cafepress 100 set buttons are $98 and totally ignoring shipping costs and hidden fees, people with all the buttons would be paying $22. Not ideal.

I think Clone Tommy said $20 a set right? How much are you guys thinking on these.
If they are less than $30 shipped I am down.
I'm looking into pricing on bulk orders, and Timmy and I are talking about how it should work, but yeah, that should be no problem. I shall keep this updated.
ALSO as I remake the badges, I will post them here, and as I do, PLEASE EVERYONE comment on them! If I did something wrong, or something you don't like, TELL ME! I'm going to try as hard as I can to make everyone happy!
