Good Button Designs?

The text looks better when it's "wrapped" to follow the curve of the button, if it's placed on the edge of the design.

I also don't know how button-makers work (my team's are diamond-shaped, and we order them from a company)...but it looks really messy when you're not accurate and the outlines of the circles show on the front of the button.

By good I meant that it's a button that makes you remember the team number. By wrapped do you mean bordering the button?
