IMHO the badges look very cluttered and the years are hard to read.
The double-ribbon design may work better in the forum side-panes because there are fairly wide white margins separating the displayed badges.
The readability of the numbers could perhaps be improved by putting a thin white outline around the black.

Rick,

We have improved badges coming out in the future. This was a first pass, so they'll look better in the future.

deltavee,

That should have earned you a badge, let me see if we forgot the association with the badge levels. I'll let you know.

Thanks,

Had to mod my own charting and hunting programs as all with FA* (Start FA with wildcard *), got tallied under FAAH. Now the filter is FAHB because FAH* would not work anymore with FAHV still in circulation [and possible to come again in the future].

uplinger, on your render improvements of the badges, are you finally adopting what Didactylos provide samples for in vectorized form, and got shot down for, scaleable larger and smaller and still looking great ;? Tried to zoom the bronze in FF and could not see any discernible difference to the bronze of any other project. Maybe it really is 'in the future' [Not that this has any useful meaning... glossed up eye candy, something they are working hard on at MS & cohorts to get rid of]

Bronze!
