I'm having a very difficult time finding a nice macro shot of a chewed up piece of gum. That's what you should go with and put the pin on the bottom of your shoe.
how about a photo a toe and put the pin on the tip of your shoe where you big toe is.
To be clear, the pin will go on the side of my shoe. I cannot put a pin on the bottom of my shoe. Given that parameter, moose, do you still want me to use a photo of gum? If so, I need a URL. Maybe you could shoot your own photo. I'll use it, if it's not too gross. I don't like gross things. That's another parameter. No gross things.

I will also not put the pin on the rubber part of the shoes. The pin will go on the side cloth part of the shoe. And Moose, please give a specific URL of an image you'd like me to use.
Another thing, people. You can use the image as an advertisement for your own blog. Or your own artwork. It just has to be an image that is already on the web, and that would work well in a circular one-inch diameter.

I've collected some pretty cool Kurt Halsey 1-inch pinbacks over the years. Maybe he has something in his current selection that might work.

If not, I'd be more than happy to let you choose from my somewhat ridiculous collection of 1-inch pinbacks.

@Tom: Thanks Tom! That's very kind of you to offer a button from your collection. I can't believe I haven't seen your pinback collection.
Mike Fioritto just gave me a button. I posted a photo of the button on my shoe at:

By the way, your site is much more fun at home! All of the photos you have here that are linked to flickr don't show up at work (I'm sure I've told you that before). Next time you come over, you'll have to remind me to bring out the pinbacks! I have one on my lunch kit that I love, but it is one of the Kurt Halsey buttons and he is far too emo for you ;)

BTW: Maybe I should put a button on my Converse too!
