Christopher Farmer from Los Alamitos, CA, submitted this button and explained how members of an online comics and cartoons forum meet monthly in real life. They use buttons as a type of 'party favor' for those who attend the meeting. Two buttons are designed and produced each month to encourage new people to come to the meeting and to inspire a feeling of unity. Each month's designs have the month and year and a reference to the location, so that they can be collected as the meets go on. Older members now have a small gallery of mementos from past events. The group has found that wearing the buttons helps the online community grow - and that posting the newest buttons online gets people excited about the coming events!
