Pinside should have a lanyard so Pinsiders will recognize their fellows at shows and such. RGP has it's own bright yellow lanyard with bright red RGP lettering. Why not Pinside!?
(Topic ID: 15777)
Wish I had one for Allentown this weekend. I'm sure I'm going to meet lots of pinside people and not realize it
Quoted from Cliffy:Why not Pinside!?
Rob Anthony hasn't moved over yet. 
Quoted from badbilly27:Rob Anthony hasn't moved over yet.
Yet he seems to know what goes on over here 
. He just helped me with the blue display for Whirlwind...AND guess what he mentioned? my frikkin lotr dropped out of a pickup...

Man, I tried to forget about that. My stomach hurts every time I think of your story.

Everyone knows that story. I think my wife saw it on Pinterest.
I took a break at Pinfest and went over to that farmers market to find something to eat and what do I see? Some tall thin guy with a lanyard round his neck and an I.D. card, think it read -
" team em Don " 
Quoted from HELLODEADCITY:Some tall thin guy with a lanyard round his neck and an I.D. card, think it read -

Ah yes. One of my Team EM brethren. We all have tee shirts too to spot fellow members at shows 
Make them cheap I will buy a few. I work in a cleanroom I can wear one daily with my badge =-) And get some for others.

Yup. That was Mr. Don Owen, out of our Team-EM east coast office. Nice guy. Good tech. You should have introduced yourself. That's part of the fun...meeting other pinheads.

I could laser engrave and cut out the tags with the slot on my laser. If given permission I could use the Pinside logo for them and even add a beveled edge around the outside of the tag. I would just need the to know color of yanlard, color of tag. Here are 2 pics, the yanlard sample and what the tag could look like, I use this material for electrical panel box tags. It is very durable and scatch resistent. I have a vendor for yanlards and the plastic. I would be able to do these for $4.75 + shipping. If interested let me know your ideas.

Hibs is on here also!! Clippy you didn't tell me that the Hibler elf was here too!!! 
Sad thing is...I have somehow mis-placed my RGP lanyard...I must've left it on one of my pins at a show or somethin' cause I have looked all over here for it, and cain't find it!! 
I guess I need to get ahold of Swanson (Is he on here also?) and get another one from him.

Seems that most of the CARGPB are here Phoebe.

Cliffy usually has a Protector hanging around his neck at shows...that's how I usually spot him; and the crowd of autograph seekers that surround him is a giveaway too.

Don't forget the paparazzi!
I would buy a couple at that price. I would think tthe best bet is to send an idea to Robin and let him OK and run with it. I am thinking Blue. That is the color I think of when I think pinside. Blue lanyard and similar tag.
Quoted from tonymiddendorf:for < $10, I'm in.
I want the LE version for $299...LMAO 
I'd definitely be in for one of the lanyards. I'd also love to see a Piniside mug available. I drink coffee every morning.

$399 gets you a numbered certificate of authenticity signed by Robin, your choice of color, and a matching mini-lanyard.

That's cool and most excellent but what we need is an easy to read and PRINT Pinside lettering or logo for the lanyard itself. Here's a pic of three country bumpkins wearing rgp lanyards at the Pin-A-Go-Go 2009 show. And I do mean bumpkins
I can also get customized lanyards with Pinside on them, it just raises the price a little but I can inquire with my vendor what that would be. I'll post when I find out. What will the color combination of the Lanyard and name be, this would help me out a bit.
Quoted from Laseriffic:What will the color combination of the Lanyard and name be, this would help me out a bit.
I would think it should either be white on blue or blue on white.

I vote for white on blue base. A white base would get too dirty.
only if I get the chains.. I'll take Blakesell in the Busta font!
I think I'd rather just get a personalized shirt.. then I can wear it anywhere on the off chance that someone randomly sees me on the street at a pizza place or something and says hi.
LOL.. It was just a thought. My friend makes these and they sell like hotcakes in the New England Patriots parking lot.

Now that is funny.
I'd be in on the Pinside lanyard militia if it comes to be,with Robins blessing and reasonably priced-
( 5 to 8 bucks,maybe )

I'd buy 6 mugs!!!
