Thanks Quim.

So let's get back to actual badge ideas. Any critiques over the first idea? Any suggested changes? New ideas?

To make the name larger I might need to use a different (narrower) font. The issue is that some people may have very long names, particularly from regions such as South America and Western Asia, et al. But I'll experiment there, thanks.

Making the member name a bit bigger is not a problem I think.

And of course you will require a special badge tag: Lardman, better than random. :D

I think someone is working already in a badge proposal at Nokia. I will send them an email on Monday referring to this thread to avoid duplicate work.

Thanks texrat for the initiative!

Good to hear! It was a fun exercise for me if nothing else. :)

2nd that. Large font, hight contrast color, clearly visible from a few steps away, "nothing else" to distract, function over form!

I second lardman here.

Your online name is more important than your real name on these badges.

Come on, you know what I mean. Everyone knows Texrat. Nobody knows that Randall dude.

Like many here on maemo.org, I lead this weird double life. I'd rather keep my muggle name out of it altogether, if I could.

Never trust people who have a first name for their last name (I'm looking @ you Texrat & qole :p)



:D

With me it's even worse. All three of my names are totally interchangeable, which means they usually get mixed up on things like badges. And they're very generic, too. Best if they were left off the badge altogether.
