Ok 1st thanks so much to Nocte and Monoceros for allowing me to use thier image to try and make one of my own. Nocte has also offered to make one for me.
Ta-da!!

The chess peice oneby Nocte that Mono is working on, colored,shaded by me in Adobe.
So what all info actually goes on a badge? Peaches told me about hanging it on a lanyard from walmart. Do furs take more than 1 to a con?

some will wear one, others wear many or change from day to day. I usually wear several including my ones by Katty and Peaches. I look for an artist at each con to get one from.

XianJaguar made this for me at the con.

For Morphicon, I wore a conbadge from Kattywampus, Colt, And of course Peaches along with my Morphicon ID. Most people I have seen wear multiple badges.

That's cute, Savaaha. Don't forget to laminate it, if you decide to keep it that size. Only suggestion I have is to make it a standard size, so that it will fit into a random badgeholder/lanyard that you can get from the store.

Apparently, you can never have too many conbadges. Some folks collect 'em like trading cards.

*coughs*
<plug>Hey, did you know that I offer a steady stream of $5 digital conbadges? http://www.kattywampus.com/conbadges If'n ya want one, just ask!</plug>
*coughcough*

I must be getting a cold.

Whats standard size for a conbadge?
*passes the Wampus a coughdrop made by the US treasury* I Would be honored Katty if you made one for me. PM me your addy and I send this tablet on to you after the 1st of the month. Cant have wampi with a couchingcold now can we, feed a cold isnt it? We'd all be in danger, not just the goats.

Is it paypal only? If it's not, I may be intrested in one for a future con.

who you talking about firewolf? some artists will do cash and money orders.

Mazz · « **Reply #13 on:** June 01, 2005, 09:57:43 pm »

i'll digitalize conbadges for close friends. but they gotta print it out themselves

Dragonfox · « **Reply #14 on:** June 01, 2005, 10:48:42 pm »

Hm.... Is there a good site for Conbadge FAQs? I'm still a while from attending my first Con, but I would like to start designing badges. (Perhaps even get some badge commissions....)

Maybe y'all can help me answer a few questions that have been bugging me:
What's the main reason for Conbadges?
How does one normally go about making/getting a Badge?
How many should one make for a Con?

Thanks!

Kattywampus.

Thanks for the heads up on payment methods. I thought it was all paypal only.

LMTO. I never thought of it that way until you said something.

Bah, I'm tired right now so everything sounds funny at the moment..

Kattywampus · « **Reply #19 on:** June 05, 2005, 03:00:41 pm »

Man, I'm happy for all the response I got all jackin' up Savaaha's thread. (sorry, zorsie! ^^;; )
I'm all about some freakin' PayPal, don't get me wrong. But I will accept government-issued pictures of dead presidents, or other forms of currency through the Snail Mail. ..Like magic cough drops that can be exchanged for a pack of chicken..

If y'all are seriously interested, just PM me and I'll give ya more info.

edit:
P.S. I forgot to answer Savaaha's question earlier.. typically, conbadges are around 3x5.

Savaaha · « **Reply #20 on:** June 05, 2005, 05:35:12 pm »
