:( bad word usage. But I meant you could use it for other usa holidays. :)

Boofo 07-27-2002 10:28 PM

It's absurd to even try to compare Sept. 11th to any holidays. No go, pal.

blah..

kaost451 07-27-2002 10:47 PM

My appologies. I edted it. Maybe it's the way I worded it, I wasn't compaing sept 11th to a holiday. I was simply saying, you can use these buttons for other events. If you don't like the fact that you can only use these buttons one time a year, I was saying that you can use them for other occasions. That's it.

Boofo 07-27-2002 10:53 PM

I saw the other message before you edited it. I won't comment on it.

I should have stayed out of this one. Too close to home, I guess. Sorry I butted in.

Nice style, but the name is not right.

kaost451 07-28-2002 12:22 AM

Thanks. but would it be any different if i made pearl harbor buttons? or hiroshima? I dunno I'm getting a lot of flack for these. Sorry if offended anyone, i just thought it would be a unique idea. Actually I'm donating proceeds. :)

Boofo 07-28-2002 12:30 AM

Maybe if you donated 100% of the proceeds and didn't try to make them anymore than for what they are, buttons to remember the day the world changed for us here in the US. ;)

I've spent a lot of time on my button sets, just so you know. If selling flags is okay then whats wrong with selling buttons? Flag industry made a fortune.

Here you go .. every one enjoy!!

kaost451 07-28-2002 12:37 AM

I was starting to feel like i was apart of al queda.

Boofo 07-28-2002 04:32 AM

You didn't have to go and do that, that's not what I meant. :)

And as far as the flags go, I think anyone who did that after Sept. 11th and made even one dime off of them, ought to be strung up and shot. And the same goes for the little ribbons that were floating around. Too many people saw an opportuninty to get rich off of misfortune. Recovering costs to make an item is understandable. Preying on people's sentiments and fears is another.

(See...I told you I shouldn't have gotten involved in this. :))

im not getting involved in this ....

very nice buttons tho (as usual)... and:

Kaost - ive emailed you several times before about MM and ozzie told me ud reply... but u neva have done... have u got msn or something :)

kaost451 07-28-2002 12:39 PM

No I guess I didn't check my email. Ozzie left me with no server access on madmusic.net, I'm lock out of my own server.lol. when he gets back I will set that up as promised

Tim Wheatley 07-28-2002 03:36 PM

Hmm... I know I'm English but I see no reason to get angry at a guy because he uses the word 'holiday' in a way which some consider bad.

If he makes an xmas set of buttons he calls it a holiday set, if he made a Dale Earnhardt set I wouldn't feel angry if he called it a holiday set. He didn't mean that 11-7 was a holiday for him - grow up guys.

No no, I am not blaming anyone, just how he worded it. anyways thats fixed nice buttons, do you accept money orders for the green on you have?

Drk

Boofo 07-28-2002 05:37 PM

Growing up has nothing to do with it. Like Drk said, the wording of it is what set us off. And also, like he said, everytime is fixed now so time to move on.

using gimmicks to make people download these buttons such as FREEEE and smileys in a september 11th post is seriously warped

Boofo 07-29-2002 02:21 PM

It's only warped if you actually downloaded them. Who in his right mind would?

Answer your question :-p

Boofo 07-29-2002 08:53 PM

Oh, Drk, please don't tell me you caved in and downloaded them. And here I thought you would help me stand up and be counted. Guess I'll have to ride this one alone. :)

TheComputerGuy 07-29-2002 09:13 PM

Why not download them, it is a holiday in the sense we celebrate the lives of the lost and tell the world that we will not tolerate it!!

Boofo 07-29-2002 09:25 PM

Oh, you got around that one real slick, huh? LOL I was waiting for someone to come up with that. You got me there. :)

Boofo 07-29-2002 09:54 PM

He pulled the ol' patriotic gambit on me. Nothing I could do about that one. :)

Don't buckle on me Drk, I need you in my corner. It's you and me against the world. And I think we can take them. ;)

Diva 07-29-2002 11:47 PM

I'm in your corner, Boofo. I am very patriotic. But I wouldn't use those buttons for that day. It is not a holiday. It is an Anniversary. The anniversary where thousands of lives were lost from all over the world. That 'scheme' only represents America. You're missing the representation of a couple of thousand lives with those buttons.

TheComputerGuy 07-30-2002 01:06 AM

Diva, an act of war on US Soil, but since we can not have a pic of every country this is close enough.

I would not use these personally...and are not planning to at the moment, I would maybe use them for July 4th if I wanted to be bored or something....

But anyways, its always nice to see one helping others with button sets.

proxyMX 07-30-2002 02:50 AM

Being scottish, and watching the event as it happened, i was considerably rocked by it. It changed the way i thought, But it also got me thinking, Is there a huge world stir because millions of starving children dying in africa each week? No. I think that it shows that media affects us alot, if there was the same amount of coverage on the african crises, i think there would be alot more mouths fed.

Boofo 07-30-2002 04:27 AM

I couldn't have said it better myself. :) Thank you, Diva. ;)

kaost451 07-30-2002 01:18 PM

Man, it's good to hear everyone's opinions, but when you really analyze this, they're just buttons. Now if i made a sept 11th beer or cigarettes, string me up. But seriously they're just buttons.

Tim Wheatley 07-30-2002 05:57 PM

Tell you what - call them a July 4th set. Isn't that better? No way that it's right to commemorate 11-7. (By the way I lived in USA for 13 of my 23 years.) Kicks the ass out of my country. ;)

I even write the date the wrong way round now! . :)

proxyMX 07-30-2002 07:14 PM

Yeah i pretty much think that someone was thinking like a freak when they named the buttons, perhaps July The Fourth would be better, it would be a holiday and you could use smileys in advertising it

virex 07-30-2002 07:41 PM

two buttons are missing

EDIT and QUOTE please post where can i download them ?

DrkFusion 07-31-2002 12:34 AM

Hey tim its 9-11 not 11-7 or 7-11
