Quoted from Pinfidel:

Really!?
Kaneda, sometimes you're an asset to the community and have some good stuff to say and add, but most times you spew so much crap it makes me sick.
I'd like to install a toilet paper holder to your jaw. That way, when you start a thread and talk like this, I can throw a roll of toilet paper on the holder to catch all the diarrhea you spew from your mouth and get all over yourself. It'd be like a public service.
How dare you judge every other pin maker out there like that? You can't even begin to imagine all the time, hurdles, hard work and money a company needs to jump over and get through to bring a machine to fruition. Couldn't you have just praised Stern and the Kiss Pin in an existing thread without all your BS?
Stern is awesome! JJP is awesome! Sppoky, Dutch, Heighway, Hemingway, PPS, P3, Circus Maximus etc...all awesome! Just cause Stern has been at it the longest and has the cash, facility, employees, and production lines to push out games doesn't mean that everyone else sucks.
Come on man. Yeesh!

Quoted from thedefog:

As a graphic designer, it is way too busy. I am happy they have seemingly drifted away from the crappy photoshop and gradients, hand-drawn and illustrated is definitely the way to go. I'm from the less is more camp though. If you have to fill each and every little inch of negative space, then your design layout it flawed (art, not PF).

Quoted from Pinfidel:

Thanks for the laugh. I'm glad I came back in this thread.
