We didn't want to spend a lot on ours either... and since the whole diamond engagement ring thing is nothing more than an ad campaign that has been going on for like 50 years we just opted right the fuck out of it. I decided it would be a lot more meaningful if I made the ring myself. So I bought a couple of gold coins off ebay, hammered them into a flare and punched a hole through the center, polished... viola. They look exactly like "real" commercial rings... you can't tell they were coins at all.... except she got to be there while I was sweating over them... got to help make decisions about how wide to flare the band and what kind of finish we wanted on the metal. It was fun and made the end product very sentimental to both of us.
That's an awesome idea

ME!
they're pretty good.
I mean, unless I get a huge mass rejection.
Then they suck.
yeah, I saw these before I left to do a usertest. I figured they'd be gone by time I was done with it. I guess if you're name aint zoltar, ocmp, IPsoft, or vacationrental you can't get work done round these parts.

I bought me and fiance's rings from the strawberry festival for $30 each. The paint came out of them, but the engraving is still there which is all we really cared about.

Be very careful because they're not afraid to reject. Some people like Peachy @PeachyRider really enjoy them, but I stay away.
hey if I was afraid of rejection, I wouldn't have been able to ask out my high school crush before prom.

and yes I was rejected, but I'm kind of dating the 44 year old version of her right now, so I win?

should we make a poll to see if this is sadder than my last post?

actually they seemed to have added a ton more since I saw them before studio 6.
