Button stickers - are they around anymore?
« on: June 06, 2005, 01:46:54 pm »
 About a year ago or so someone was getting together orders for little vinyl sitckers that could be used to stick on buttons.  Are those still around?

  I'm putting a dedicated quit button on my new CP and having this button labeled would be a good thing.

There's inkjet material, that you can buy for making stickers. 
There's white and clear.  you can print on the stuff, cut it to shape, peel the adhesive and stick it to where you need...use the clear to print on, then stick another layer of clear over top so the print won't wear away...I haven't used it on a CP button, but I have used it for other applications, and it worked well...
Maybe it could be used for the stickers on yout buttons...

I tried doing this with clear Avery label stock, but the material made wrinkles when it tried to follow the concave shape of the button.  Any suggestions on how to make this stick down in the button flat?

I think I still have some of those.  Someone requested them but I cut more than I needed.  No one else asked for them so they are still in the box I think?

Now that this comes up.  I can definitely do a third run of these since I'll be at the sign shop for a week in July anyway.  It was a lot easier not weeding them last time  :P

If you're considering doing another run, I'd recommend starting a thread in the B/S/T forum to make it worth your while.

I work at a sign shop too and can cut some of these no problem (thanks to Nannuu for the ai file!). If anyone wants a set (or something else that's small) drop me a PM, I'll gladly send out some to people that mail me an SAE (stamped addressed envelope). I'm not going to weed them though- you'll have to follow Nannuu's instructions there.
I'll cut it from 3M matte white with the clear plastic backing film unless anyone wants another color.

I can wrap text around buttons pretty easily too if anyone wants some...

No problem Joy.  I don't do it for money anyway, I do it for BYOACers.  I will ask for a SASE on the next run too.  I got a talkin to from the wife on the first run  :P.

I might cut some of these too.  I really like it on my truck.  But I would have to charge due to the size, weeding and mask.  Any interest in these?  Someone was selling them in BST a while back.  Pixel was nice enough to share the file.
Next I'll be on fries, and that's when the big money starts rolling in.

I'm putting together a cut file for the free button-sticker sets based on Nannuu's Illustrator file. It's going to all fit on one letter-sized page so it'll fit into a standard letter envelope easily.
I'll throw in a few 'wrap-around-button' text labels too- like the 'PLAYER 1 START' one in the photo above. I'll use the standard helvetica font for these, since it's the easiest font to weed when the text is this small. I'll see how well the Robotron font weeds too.
Obvious labels are the player start and exit buttons. Any other requests? Shout them out now while there's still room.

Thats for exiting the game - according to Nannuu its the milkman running out the backdoor b/c Mr. Schwarzaneggar (sp?) came home early  :P

Sorry, butI need a translation on these buttons.

What is:

Headphones?

Not entirely sure, but I know that some of the PC speaker sets, such as the Creative set that Ive used and I kno Kevin used in the mameframe II has a remote w/ a headphone jack

The others Im not entirely sure on though  :-[

No, it's a Radioshack momentary contact pushbutton.
http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&product%5Fid=275-644

Most Radioshacks have them and they're pretty good for admin buttons.

What we really need is a jukebox sticker set: A through F and 1 through 9, plus SEL, RND, POP, left and right arrows PAUSE, SKIP, CLR, all in the Handel or Microgramma font that are so popular on jukeboxes...
