Hole needs to be at top.  People collect these and hang them on hooks for display, ours would look out of place hanging on it's side.

I'm less concerned with ours looking our of place in someones big collection (do they have racks like people who collect thimbles? :) ) that having it look good on its own. :)

Okay; I've got 4 votes for this tag.  Unless the pole numbers change this evening, I will submit an order for 250 (which will leave me with 12 spare) @ $13 shipping. 

If anyone thinks I should order 300; I don't mind but it will increase the shipping to $30.

The following are on the list for tags:

BASK, Jleecollins, phillipie99, Wandering_Man, shroomAzoom, BP76Mr, hunter-killer, Mechman, Ragbag, Rxtwo and ChrisDom.

If you want in on the tag let me know by tonight and I will increase the order!!!

The order has been sent out for 250 tags.

 $282.00 USD = $302.78 CAD
(Exchange rate: 1 CAD = 0.931369 USD)
$302.78/250 tags = $1.20/tag

I should receive the blueprint for the tag within a week and will post it for review before accepting.  Once approved, it should take 4-6 weeks to complete.

I have been trying to figure out the picture in the bottom right of the pathtag for a while,
I think I have finally figured it out

Is it supposes to be "Lake Superior"?

Check out the blueprint and provide comments before I approve the production.
sAz, I'm counting on your expert opinion.

Wow that looks good. I like that everything is done with a thin raised edge. Should give it some nice definition.

The Pathtag blueprint has been accepted and it is on its way to production.  I've made the tag public and it can be viewed in the tag gallery.

An email indicates that the tags will arrive between 01/03/2010 and 01/17/2010.
We will have an event when they arrive, as a means of picking up the tags.

I've already had 4 offers for trades with other pathtag holders (if anyone is interested in trading, I will pass the requests on).
