So I decided to do something cool...
My avatar is a pic of a pin I'm working on. I think it's a solid enough pin. I'm going to wear it on my black blazers.
In fact, I want to make some pins of all my buddies on G.net that are really working on some good projects. Meaning the other one will be of Scarlet Laughter and Stormtroopers band as soon as he gets his stuff recorded. 
I don't normally do this kind of thing. Wearing labels kinda irk me to an extent. But I think it's because I never quite felt like it mattered to wear labels of bands or clothing brands that's already secured a foothold on their art to the point of going on tours and such.
Who knows. Maybe someday I'll make a Sex Gang Children back patch and not feel goofy. But something tells me I wont.

You are.  These pins are just a small way of me showing the support for their art.

My GF has a 1 inch button press. So I'll be using that.
I'm also going to be making an AddioPizzo pin because I believe in what they're trying to do in Sicily, but I also believe that the spirit of that movement says something more. Stand up to those who bully you.

Hey, Kontan, if you are going to be making more than one of the buttons, like a run of several of each design, there are a couple you mentioned I would be interested in as well. I could pay shipping and materials, etc. If it is just more of a one off, DIY thing, that's cool too, I just figured I wouldn't know unless I asked.

Well, I'll have to wait and see, really. If it turns out alright, then I'll probably make a few more of the same one just to hand out and such.

Oh. Well, let me know (PM, email, etc) if you'd be willing to send one of the Address Unknown and Addiopizzo ones, if you make multiples. Like I said before, I'd be willing to cover shipping and materials.

The AU pin looks pretty awesome, but I'm sure there has to be a significance to the raven in the middle? Like mayhaps it is analogous to the name Address Unknown?

I like the AU pic. Looks really good.
And I think Scarlet Laughter is a good choice, as they are undoubtedly the greatest band. Ever.:P

Doh!

I had loads of left over badge bits too. Shit I feel so stupid for leaving it at my ex's house. No way am I going to go back there for just that.
Oh well good luck with the pin business dude!

This is what I have so far. Addiopizzo and AU looks good to me. The other two seem to need dire suggestions I think. End Of Flowers isn't too bad. Take note, the image quality does suffer when posted on myspace. Dunno why.

Your support for these projects is most noble and good.
I like the AU design.

The raven is analogous to Address Unknown. It's a personal thing for me.
