			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I&#8217;m interested in getting into the button making / refrigerator magnet business.  I&#8217;d sell on eBay as well as to local groups / businesses in my area.  I&#8217;d like to have the ability to offer a number of different sizes, including 1 1/2&#8243; square, 2&#8243; square, 1 1/2&#8243; x 4 1/2&#8243; and 2.25&#8243; round.  Is there a single machine that I can buy, along with the various sized cutters / button makers, or would I need to purchase a completely separate machine for all of the button sizes I&#8217;d like to offer?</p>
<p>I&#8217;d like to have the ability to offer the sizes I outline above, but if a completely different machine is required for each, the start up cost would be pretty extensive.  If this is the case, is there a rental program or a used equipment program available?  Rental could be pretty expensive over the long term, but if I were able to rent for a couple of months, I&#8217;d be able to get a handle on whether or not it would make sense for me to make the investment in all of the various equipment.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for any info. on this.</p>
<p>Hal</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m using Build-a-Button, and need to create a button with a green background with image on top. When I upload a PNG image with transparent background, I&#8217;m getting a white box around it. Is there a setting to &#8220;ignore white&#8221; or something that I&#8217;m missing.</p>
<p>I can make this button happen in Photoshop, but that kind of defeats the purpose of using (and paying for) Build-A-Button. This is pretty much a dealbreaker for me unless I can come up with a workaround.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am interested in purchasing the software but would like to know how to import patterns to use in the software. For esample the template for the political button can I make the top half and bottom half a pattern. Can I also bring in a shape like a frame? Is there a video or tutorial I can watch for this? Thank you in advance.</p>
