Resolved How do I get little icons under my name?

I've noticed a few people with little icons under their name/GW Elder badge, mostly pizza one but I've seen a few others

How does one do that?

Well, we plan on implementing some kind of badging for “achievements” here down the line, but for the time being I generally just create them one at a time. Tommy posted his tattoo and resurrected a funny, so I immortalized it in a badge in his honor. Alu posted his nipple in one thread, now it’s in every thread.

@Mark can you remove the pizza badge from anyone who might endorse pineapple on pizza? I’m not sure how many other people have this badge

Edit: or do I have that ability/permission from you?

Get me the list and they’ll be executed taken care of. I’ve...

Get me the list and they’ll be executed taken care of. I’ve gotta tweak with badge permissions in the staff user groups. When I set all that up, I didn’t really have many badges assigned.

Edit - @shortkut , mods and higher have permissions to issue badges, but only admins can add them.

If you need a particular badge, I’ll need a .png with small enough dimensions to resize without distorting. Here’s the other stuff I’d need:

It can be finer tuned to be issued under certain parameters, but that’s pretty detailed and you’d pretty much have to give me a scenario and I’d tell you what I could arrange.

I do not recommend people posting their nipples here in order to get a badge.

However, if you ever do something where you can properly be called a "tit" then I maintain the right to bestow my nipple on you as punishment.

All I’m looking to do is if I see a pizza badge on a heathen, I want to take it from them

You *should* be able to do that as well as award them to the saints.

Do we get badges for the most posts in a wolf game?

They feel kind of short, we might need to incentivize posting.

I can definitely set that up if y’all have an image you’d like me to use.

We talked about making a badge for successfully priesting a wolf out of existence. That might be the only one we should do (or maybe a badge for people who have won a game?)

Yeah, whatever y’all end up deciding on can be arranged. All I’d need is parameters or it would have to be manually awarded by a mod.

The priest one is a good idea, I do like the winning one, maybe a different win badge for town, wolf, or solo.

Then again, I don't know how specific automatic parameters are and I wouldn't want someone to have to go manually add all these after each wolf game.

The whole parameters thing only really pertains to anything that would be automated… for example, a badge you get when you are promoted from a regular member to a veteran member after a predetermined amount of time. Winners, losers, championships, etc. would all have to be manually awarded and revoked, which would essentially mean it’s the easiest to set up… and either myself or a FOG mod or admin would have to issue and revoke them, which isn’t time-consuming at all… it takes a matter of seconds.

What if I reform myself

Probationary period. Must post every pizza you consume as proof that you’re sober from sin.

I mean if there's a consensus from, I think some kind of winner badge(s) would be cool.

Absolutely, I’m all for expanding on the badges and stuff like that makes each member’s profile a little different… that’s why I’m making so many stupid ones and handing them out based on different shit that’s happening around the forums.

What sizes work best, and are there any images that aren't allowed (aside from the obvious)?

Oh man wait. Can we just use the Holy Water image from the original NES Castlevania games as the badge for a priest who successfully priests someone? @Zell 17 it's your game series. But something like this:

Or this

(obviously smaller) would be good I think.
As a massive Castlevania fan, this would become my life's goal.

I need that.

"The anti-Tubby Boy. You successfully used your priestly powers for the good of the village"

Done. I will warn you, though… it does present kinda small compared to the other badges, and the other one has that obvious-as-fuck Konami against our dark style, so it’ll definitely be ugly on the original.

Jinx.

Here's a dumb screenshot version edited without the space around it. Someone who is better with image manipulation can do the transparent background if needed. I've spent too much time thinking about this on a half day at work already.

It is SO difficult to find an acceptable replacement for this on Google, so we might have to outsource this to another member with some skills.
