This is going to be down at the bottom. It'll be, you know, stamped on an envelope. It'll be, you know, stuck on the back or down the side of a bookmark, you know. So knowing this, knowing that it has to work, you know, the size of a penny or, you know, the size of a, you know, on the side of a van or whatever. And it has to be able to work both ways. So he came to me and said, you know, this is what we want to do. I knew it would be a simple solution. But the biggest thing for me is I looked at all of the, I looked at all the logos. There's a lot of, you know, there's not a lot of variation between a lot of the logos that I found just in the community, just in the research that I did. And one of the things that I found is all the nibs in most of the logos and stores point up. And I think that, you know, I said, all right. So there's the, there was one of the biggest differences. You know, I wanted that nib to be pointing down, you know. I mean, we use these things. And yeah, we collect them and everything like that. But there, it's not about just we have this beautiful pen. It's we get to use this beautiful pen. You know, we were, what was it? I was out at the, at Knox warehouse a couple of weeks ago. Brad pulled out this whole case of pens. And all of a sudden, here comes four or five more guys. Oh, you got to try this pen. Oh, you got to try this one and do that. And it wasn't about, you know, behind a glass case or, you know, pull out this velvet box or whatever. These things were all well used, you know. So I wanted that in there. But, you know, something simple, something that would, that would work, you know, at a good size. You know, when I passed it off to, to Kerry, man, he just went nuts with it. And now we've got, there's notebooks, there's buttons and bookmarks and all kind of stuff. He sends me all this stuff and I keep getting mail from him all the time. But I've got a drawer just, just full of these things. But to be able to be a part of something like this was really cool. And then to, you know, to realize that it reached such a big community and has such a cool community that has an incredible following. You know, I didn't know what I was getting into. But, you know, I'm just, I'm just thrilled that I got a chance to work on it.</div></td><td class="diff-marker"></td><td style="background-color: #f8f9fa; color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #eaecf0; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>'''Scott Fuller:''' And when people come to me and ask me to do this type of design work, you know, realizing what context it's going to be used, you know, this is not going to be huge on people's websites.
