Apples and oranges. Bootstrap's default buttons all carry some kind of semantic meaning (primary, warning, info, etc.) while these buttons are purely for their visual appeal. The colors within a single Kuler color scheme aren't intended to be used together in this pack, they're just arranged like that so you can see the color schemes. It's more like for when you want a nice looking button and want a wide variety of colors to choose from.
Oh, then I misunderstood the purpose. Thanks.
Goes to show that the product description could use some work. :)
This is very cool as a demo or library, but why would anybody ever need to buy 500 buttons?
The process of creating them is not free (at the least it will cost time) and for some people, depending on their skill, it's not even possible to customize CSS at that or any level. The style selection is unparalleled when compared to other button packs.
Why not just create a CSS generator. That helps someone tweak there button down to the very last detail, and then just charge them 50 cents for that one button.
There are already CSS button generators (for Bootstrap, even) and it's always the same: you get out what you put in. Even the examples these sites use as the buttons you can generate typically look like a lousy lot. And $0.50 would end up being like 80% credit card fees for me. It probably wouldn't work out.
I would be extremely interested to see if you make any money out of this. What are you including in the pack? Is it just the buttons.css, which you can easily download from your site already? I'd be a bit more impressed if it was more tightly linked in with the kuler api - so that you could enter any theme name and get a set of buttons.
if you're not colorblind, these would be great.
accessibility?

This is basically just the first version of this pack and I was trying to get it out before the morning, but in the following versions I think that would be a great addition. It's something I'd want to think through though and do right.
$8 that I cannot give for the buttons because PayPal is being itself and won't let me buy anything with my perfectly valid credit card.
Stripe?

Man, that's a drag. I'll start shopping around for other options that can integrate. PayPal is just a starter thing anyway. Sorry about that!
In terms of button sets, you almost always need a red button to signify that this button does something dangerous (or perhaps just irreversible). And it must be done without making the user read, so usually bright red is needed. And if you have multiple shades of red (even an orange, brown-ish orange, or purple are pushing it I think) for different buttons, it becomes confusing and defeats the whole purpose.
Just taking into account the need for one red (and only one red), I'd probably rule out half of these as unusable combinations in an actual web app.
The other half look great though! ;-)
