gevans Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 Hey guys what happened to the stars?? I'm liking the new Identity boxes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 It came up during a discussion of another issue in the staff forum, so I used mad design skills to make some badges for all the groups. Glad you like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkWater Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Authors don't get a sexy badge. =( And we can't set our main group to Authors either. The radio button is disabled. Was that intentional? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you like it. I like the new badges too. Look better than stars, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelmanronald06 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I made it to where you can update your primary group to author (Darkwater, I did this for you myself just to test and make sure it went through. Feel free to change it if you wish.) As far as the image goes, you'll have to wait till Daniel0 makes one of the cool tricked out name tags for the Author Group.

nrg_alpha Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Very nice.. These indeed look cleaner and sleeker than those run-of-the-mill stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI: After discussions behind the scenes, I don't think we're adding banners for authors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcombs_31 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Nice job Daniel, I think they'd look even better with a little text inset. You can see an example here http://veerle.duoh.com/blog/comments/apple_leopard_text_effects/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrg_alpha Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Now the jcombs mentions it, I concur. I couldn't resist playing around with it. My monitor's colour profile got pooched, so I changed it to some srgb 1998 profile (which I read as a backup recommendation in some forum). So the greens in the sample link may not quite match what you guys have already (which I prefer). But it was fun playing around with it none the less.
