We'll see what happens and if there's a demand 4 some unique buttons. The possibilities r endless, not only limited 2 Prince pics of course...
Have ur favorite pet on a button, ur kids, any pic can b transformed 2 a quality button by us. Make a powerfull statement by wearing a button every day, your friends will envy you...and want one 2!!! So why not get multiple buttons in one easy transaction and take advantage of our special discount! Buttons make great X-mas gifts btw!!
I know how 2 sell them huh??? wink

I don't know why buttons EVER went outta style.

I LOVE buttons...okay, I LOVE PRINCE buttons.

I wanna catalog, a web page, SOMETHING!

BTW, the HOF button is VERY COOL.

How about little buttons? Remember the buttons that use to be about the size of a quarter or half dollar? (Mel mr.green )
I'm firmly planted in denial
