MinerAl:

I'll buy a navy one.  I'll take adjustable, but I'd pay extra for a 7 3/4 fitted.  (7 7/8 if you can get it) ((yes I have a giant mellon of a head))

It's funny how arcade cabinets are such strong pop culture icons but when you take a detail out of context it's really hard to distiguish. ...just an observation.

And I think that's a valid concern. I'm going to tweak the design a bit to address it. The stick figure will be changed to separate and enlongate the arms (which was previously suggested). That should help regonition a bit. I'm also going to change the rim shadow on the button top to feel wider and lighter so it's less like a 90 deg. edge. Probably also add a light shadow around the edge of the bezel. The embroiderer is currently testing stitch patterns to see if he can separate the bezel, button edge and button top as "satin stitches." This kind of stitch has dimension to it... it's like the puffy sticker of the embroidery world. If he can achieve that along the 3 separate areas I thing the bezel will bulge out very slightly like a rounded surface... as will the button egde. That should also help identify it as a button, I'm hoping.

That said, the "out of context" comment may hold true regardless. So those who can't live with the potential confusion should probably wait until the 2007 design which will be a logo unmistakably recognizable as the rotating restrictor plate of a 4-8 way T-stick Plus. ;) ;D

Pixelhugger:

I'm going to work on the logo this weekend and hold off on the news announcement/ordering until I've finalized the tweaks.

Stingray:

It looks like a start button to me. I like khaki, unstructured, adjustable, so it looks like I'm gonna be a cheap date on this one. :)
