You may remember that earlier this year we created custom buttons for the newest Disney Pixar movie Brave. These 2.25″ custom buttons were used to promote the film’s theatrical release. Now you can own the film on Blu-Ray and DVD. PureButtons is proud to work with the best animators in the world at Disney Pixar. Get your copy today!
Brave stars Billy Connolly, Kelly Macdonald, and Emma Thompson

At PureButtons, we offer full color on our custom promotional products at no extra charge. And while our razor-sharp color printing technology is great, many artists find themselves using black & white or grayscale images with great success. Check out this gallery of custom merch using just black, white & gray!
You’ll find that using solid black graphics on our metallic buttons gives a really professional and unique look. We print your graphics on transparent acetate which lets the metal of the button face show through. Parts of your design that are white, become metallic! Black ink blocks out the look of the metal, while colored inks actually let the metallic look shine through giving your button a reflective metallic look that will really turn heads!
Whatever your design looks like, PureButtons offers the highest quality, newest printing technology to make sure that your custom promotional merchandise comes out looking great!

You may have noticed, but a few weeks ago we pushed an employment form live on our website, and we also put a Jobs page on the PureButtons website. These forms are for production crew positions at our Ohio facility. Production crew duties involve packing custom stickers, building custom buttons, packing orders, cutting artwork, assembling custom products and more. We are located in Medina, Ohio if you’re looking for Ohio Jobs.
Thanks for supporting StandOut Stickers and PureButtons!

We recently have seen an increase in Rim Text use on our custom buttons which is a great because rim text offers a fantastic way to add more text/copy to your button, without putting it right on the front. This is a great place for your name, url, or slogan. We’ve also seen phone numbers, emails, and twitter handles on rim text.
We will follow this post with a video tutorial on creating rim text, but for now, below are some great examples of rim text on our custom buttons.

When preparing your button artwork, it is vital that you use our templates to ensure that your art prints at the right size.
If you prepare your artwork at full size in our templates, you will have a great looking, sharp print on your custom products!
The standard dpi for our templates is 300dpi. You can make your artwork at a higher resolution, like 600dpi, but 300dpi is the lowest standard that we require.
If you are confused about artwork preparation, we offer several services to help with this:
1) If you have high resolution artwork, but are unable to add it to our templates, you can order Digital Proof & Template Help on checkout. We will place your high res artwork in our template to ensure a perfect print.
2) If you do not have artwork or have low resolution artwork, we can help create new artwork for you. Contact us for current design rates.
3) The Proof & Template Help fee will give you a fantastic digital proof which will let you see how your artwork will be printed, very similar to the mockups you sometimes see on this blog.
To recap, high resolution artwork is required for a professional product. We use the best quality digital printers to offer image clarity and color saturation that is unmatched!
