Where are the FT pins/buttons?

I have read in several threads about people wearing FT pins/buttons on flights so we can recognize each other. I tried a search in several forums for pins or buttons, but got no matches, even when I copied/pasted the words from an existing post (is the search function down?). anyway, I think pins would be a great idea. I'd like to know if the person in the next seat or the FA bringing our drinks is someone I may have chatted with here.

It's right at the very top of the page; the tabs are "Forums","Help","Chat", ... "Reviews","Store".
Click on the Store tab.

When you say 'the page', what page are you talking about? The tabs you mention are not on any page I have seen on FT or anywhere on smarterliving.com. The only 'tabs' I see are miles buzz, travel buzz, FT miles, FT travel, FT Dining, FT Airports, and FT archives.

Thank's for the link! Why is my FT page aparently different from everybody elses? I see the links at the top of the page you linked to, but I've never seen them before, & I don't know why.

I bought the FT tags to go on luggage/laptop; they're bright yellow & easily recognizable. I haven't done any pins/buttons & don't look at my fellow travelers THAT closely.

Go to www.flyertalk.com, there should be the button for the store on the left side.

I also have the bright yellow luggage tags, whom I love simply for their color, makes recognizing your luggage very easy. They are inexpensive enough not to cry when one gets lost, and I just wrote my emailadress and MP number on them so that the airline will be able to locate to whom that luggage belongs.

WOW! I never knew there was a flyertalk.com. I have always used smarterliving.com, and assumed there was only one flyertalk. I wonder how many others have never seen flyertalk.com?

Daydream sweetie I know what you were going to post & deleted because I almost did the same thing, but then clicked on his smarterliving.com post & realized he was serious - not being a jerk - in his posting. And it explains his not being able to find the stuff in the zillion posts above, but now that he's found flyertalk.com he won't have those problems again. smarterliving doesn't have all the stuff that flyertalk.com does.

daydream - see you at the skido or dus do. cheers & happy holidays.

Also, there is a non-frames version of the FT page that a lot of us old-timers are used to. So you are correct about not seeing any tabs.

Thank's for realizing that I'm not a jerk!
I wonder if this could explain some of the problems I've had with the 'search' function? I've often searched using words cut & pasted from a post, only to get no results from the search function even though I know the post is there. Does the search function not work in smarterliving.com? If not, it would explain a lot of "I searched but couldn't find (X)" posts.
