Got those things printed today (thanks mom!), it looks pretty nice. I might get some more of them printed and made into those 3" round badges (also available in 1") and give them away (provided shipping isn't terribly expensive, for things like those I guess it shouldn't), otherwise there's Redbubble or something like that, or in person shall we ever meet. You can recognize the logo for my other website, MLP Québec (http://mlp.quebec) (now with legs! Again, thanks mom) and of course CodeWalrus'. The other one shown (sorry, blurry phone pic) is my mom's website for her graphism stuff.

I love them. :D Perhaps you could sell them to active CW users (they would only pay shipping fees) and then we could setup a Redbubble store that makes them and ship them for us. We also should have one that shows the various :walrii: sprites on them and a green one. :)

Awesome!
Would be cool if you could customize them(like having a custom walrii)
But that's just me :P

Customized ones would probably be a lot of work, though. >.<

I'd probably buy a 1" :walrii: ((http://codewalr.us/omnomirc_www/smileys/Walriichu.gif)?) pin, providing it was reasonably priced.

I wonder if custom ones should say CW or the URL on them? That way people know what those walruses are about. :P

Probably. They look pretty cool now, but I'd wouldn't buy the custom ones because I'd only buy my own and I've made a lot. :P

Who is the tired-looking well-bearded person in the 2nd picture?

That's @Juju in the 2nd picture. :P

Also you don't want to see @Streetwalrus when he's tired. A few years ago he posted a pic of himself on Omnimaga following an all-nighter or something and he somehow looked hyper and evil at the same time :P

Anyway I checked our Redbubble store that was never completed and we lack such badges. I'll see if they can be done via that store, else I'll see if there is an alternative. I am not that much of a fan of Redbubble anyway because prices are very high, but on the other hand I don't want to use some shady store only to find out later that it's a scam.

So, you would not buy my lemonade if my stand was under a tree? :P

No, I am talking about stores that takes your money but don't actually exist, so they never send you your item and they keep your money.
Title: Re: Want some walrus swag? (CW badges)
Post by: Yuki on April 14, 2016, 11:53:39 PM
I'd definitely buy you some lemonade :P

And yeah, that fabulous beard in the OP belongs to me.

Yay! $0.45 towards my phone fund! :P

Fabulous indeed. But if I ever grew a beard, I'd go bald. I blame my father's "generational curse." :P

That beard though O_o

When can i expect to be able to buy an animated walrus badge? :trollface:

Also, i think you should create some omnimaga peanut ones :P
Title: Re: Want some walrus swag? (CW badges)
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on May 01, 2016, 03:54:59 AM
Omni peanuts could be something nice (juju should make a topic there about it and make some with Omni logo). What about Cemetech badges?
Title: Re: Want some walrus swag? (CW badges)

Yeah, I'll see what we can do.

Whenever someone is bored enough to disect those cheap flashing keychains and make one.

I wouldn't like a flashing keychain, because I am afraid it could stop working at any moment. It would be nice to have many of them to decorate stuff at night, though.

They last pretty long, and aren't so big. They can be found at any Toys R Us store, but do those exist in Canada?
Title: Re: Want some walrus swag? (CW badges)
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on May 06, 2016, 05:18:03 AM
The thing, though, is if they are made by a cheap company based in China and are knockoffs then maybe they won't last as long. And yes we got Toys'R'Us here.

Wow that looks nice! For FRC we have a button maker but I don't know if you already have one.

Yeah, this year we had good artists so they set up a booth and did custom buttons, I wonder how well they could make walriis :P
Title: Re: Want some walrus swag? (CW badges)
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on May 10, 2016, 02:09:10 AM
If said artists are fond of pixel art, then maybe you could get some to come to CW? ;)

Same if they do other kind of art actually. Also I still wish someone made custom plushies for cheap, especially now that we are starting to have 3D walruses.

Post by: alexgt on May 10, 2016, 02:17:37 AM
Yeah, idk if they would want to or have time. And also I don't know if hey are into pixel art :P
