Default Ford Barn button at MARC National Meet

I asked for and received permission from Ford Barn Support, to create a button with the Ford Barn Logo to be offered at the Marc National Meet that our Nickle "A" Region will be hosting in Oshkosh, Wisconsin in June. The purpose of the button is for folks that use this web-site to be recognized by others that also use this web-site. The cost will be $1.00 or less depending on our cost. I was told that this venture will be fine as long as it is not for profit.
Now I would like feed-back from people on this site. If you are going to be at the MARC meet in Oshkosh, will you purchase this pin? The response I get will determine how many of these pins that I will make, if any. Thanks. Don/WI ps:I am going to try to add "USER" at the bottom of the logo.

I can't make the MARC meet, but I'd wear it to local club events.

I won't be in attendance either but would like a couple(maybe 6) for my use. Will send ck plus postage, no rush. I'm sure others will want also, even the T, EV8 and late V8 guys also.

Just a thought, leave an area that someone could put their screen name if they so choose.

I'd like a couple too, if you make a space for a name.

I think it would be better not to have "USER" on it

I really think that Just Like it's Pictured is best, no user, no name, etc. Wearing it would be evidence enough. (KISS)

Looks great, and it's a great idea. As others have said, I'm not able to get to Oshkosh, but would wear one locally.

I would surely like to wear one, but I can't go to Oshkosh.
Perhaps it should have "Fordbarn.Com" on it.
Looks like Fordbarn would publish these.

It looks like a good idea. I also think it would be a good idea to be able to get one or some to use in our local area. I think the idea of putting the user name on it or having a space for it is also a good idea. If the space is there, a person could put their name on it or not. I think the idea of a user name is good so that when you do wear it locally, other people in your club etc. would know you are on Ford Barn and recognize you(maybe this is good or bad).

Count me in Don, I would like to buy it through the mail if possible as there are some other places I would wear it before the Marc meet. Clyde

Just my $0.02...

-- I like the basic idea

-- I like the idea to leave a space at the bottom for a user name to be added at the determination of the individual (I think a Sharpie would work)

-- I like the idea of www.fordbarn.com on it

-- Instead of "User" at the bottom (with it's inherent negative connotations), I'd suggest "Member" at the top...

I may not be able to make Oshkosh - but would still be interested in getting a couple of buttons (or stickers [hint, hint]; or both)...

Great idea!

To visualize...

I have often wondered why there is nothing available for sale from Fordbarn proper for us "stocker" or "traditional" guys. They have plenty of stuff over at The Jalopy Journal and for the H.A.M.B. forums. I buy one of their calenders every year, I have often thought about becoming an Alliance Member over at the HAMB just to get the discounts offered by some of the vendors (the Brassworks and Coker deals are worth it alone). I think that there are definitly enough of us folks over here on the Fordbarn that would buy a hat, shirt, calender or whatever to warrant a little bit of recognition from the administrators. There have to be enough of us between the model T, model A, early V-8 and late V-8 guys here to make something happen.

I WANT A FORDBARN T-SHIRT!!!!
(Or at least something cool to show my allegiance, like the button.)

As a Markerting guru.. I would love to see this as a sticker that I could put on my cars here in Canada! Also you want to put the WEBSITE on it to help promote it!

Very good idea!

Justin
