Badge Mania

Computer Solutions is not all website design, and IT support.
We also do a bit of artsy stuff too (although not as much as I’d like!).
As part of an internal “just for fun” project we’re doing, I bought a badge machine for the office.

Today saw the first set of badges produced, with a theme of Old 70′s era China, based on a post I saw at BoingBoing -> LP Cover Lover.

Without further ado, our first badges are below:

1RMB Coins sure are big ;)

and

为人民服务

为人民服务

The staff also made a set, but I think we can be saved from an image of Snoopy in blue.

Unless you look below ;)

Note that we’re now selling these, and more badges over at http://www.iwantone.cn

We’re also releasing another cool in-house designed product over there next week, so stay tuned!

    huge thanks,
    michael chorney

  • Michael – send me your postal address (via email) and I’ll send you a set.
    Robert – good idea. I’m not quite setup for that yet though, but it is something I’m thinking about. I have a lot of cool old Chinese stuff from the antique markets here in China, and its dying to be used in this kind of application.

    Can contact me directly on – Lawrence at computersolutions dot cn

    I’ll update the post when I decide what I’ll do :)
