Team BBT Badges? – 4051 days old

[ImaginAsian]

Hey everyone...PC911 has what I think is a very good idea of congratulating their members for their hard efforts at the UD project. What they have designed are little UD Badges for different levels of points that each member obtains. When the member obtains a new level, they get a new badge to proudly display it in their sig or avatar if so desired.

I thought this is a great idea. Do you all think so? I was thinking we could have a similar badge for our Team but maybe do it by results, since that's what we primarly track by. Your inputs and ideas are appreciated. I would like to have this completed one way or another by this week sometime so please vote!

Attached is a sample of 911's badges...I asked them if we could do something similar and they said no problem

I was thinking the milestones for our team to be:

100
500
1000
2000
3000
4000
5000
etc...

Yeah, why the hell not? Sounds like a good idea to me.

Although we're never gonna see eye to eye on this points vs. results thing are we?

To me, it's the time spent (points) not the results that count. But there we agree to differ.

I mean, for the last month or so average time to get a result was 12 hours, yet lately with my four machines I been getting, like, 14 results a day, all little tiddlers.

I won't labour the point If it's results, then it's results.

I like the idea of the badges, anything that stimulates interest gotta be good. You have my vote.

Mango, you're such a geek. Go spend some country mixes.

Hehe Flops...actually u brought up a good point...How about we offer both Points and Results Badges! That should make everybody happy and STFU Kiwi and go play with your dolls.

[catcorpse]

I saw this and I liked it. what do you think??

[AmStoned]

Nice jelly beans. Since you put it that way, good idea!

[whipat]

Good idea, give me something to put down in the sig place along with the banner that James is working on.

Hee 911 comes up with good ideas every now and then

Thanks for the compliments Spezi...I never check my points but the millionth digits stuck out today when I looked at the stats. And nooooo.....not this points and results debate again. And you guys are right...the badges should reward effort and that's what points attempts to do...so datz why we gonna have badges for both stats

I really am excite about this badge thing but man Katz, you know I can't draw those jellybeans in Paintbrush...I need help

[catcorpse]

hehe well I am better at destroying computers than drawing....I can't do nothing. even a simple oval with color, mabey the same color like say a red oval for 4Kresults or 500,000 points, but in the red oval have either P for points or R for results. Hmm I will think of a way, need to get some sleep and hook a few more computers up

[ImaginAsian]

Here's a first crack at it...

About my extent of expertise with Paintbrush

If any more talented members would like to help, by all means

Looks good, Hon.

Great idea!! - My only suggestion is that we have badges that start a little lower down the range, say 10 then 50 - to give encouragement to those who have recently started

[KaraK]

seems like a pretty funky idea to me, shows recognition of the work people are putting in. I like

[Lonnie]

Looking good, IA

About the points v. results thingie - I think I'm the lone dissenter on that one, but I really, really, don't wanna go there again....

Wishin' I hadn't made that comment now

[whipat]

Flops


I think he plans on doing both, that will be good,huh?

Good idea Tek! Sounds like a plan....I think we might run out of colors to use eventually

BTW...u guys like the rounded rectangle design or something else?

[catcorpse]

this is what I am talking about., this is really smooth and sexy IMO. it's not to big but it's a nice little banner

[ImaginAsian]

Good Idea Catz...sort of like an mini-avatar under the real one. That suggests the help of our CTO for a hack. What say Meagi?

The poll looks like people would like badges. I'll try to get some things whipped up for a first pass this weekend.

[Darcy]

well, i do the best i can with my little dink machine, so i really appreciate TechV's suggestion. hoping it's do-able ...

[ImaginAsian]

[Darcy]

Great! thanks, IA.
