so, whats the new badge system anyhow?

[+daddyairplanes]

just curious. im amused by it, and curious how i just earned a contributor badge. so im wondering what all the badge rankings are (and if theres a HMFIC badge for Erik)

will admit, was highly amused when the site came back up and i was informed i was a rookie. i mean, i havent been here since BioHazard days, but i have been around awhile now. even uploaded a couple mods along the way

Well, FWIW I got my shiny "Newbie, Earned August 6, 2005" badge.

Anyway, good to see the site restored and working!

It's to be announced and dependent on when I have time to mess with all the new ranks and promotion settings. Right now, it's a low item on the fix list. It does need to be re-tooled but I'm still dealing with machine related stuff that takes priority. The pretty front end stuff is the window dressing, what's under the hood and getting that on strong footing is the foundation that builds everything else. If you want to help I'll gladly take your new badge ideas and images.

I kinda like it, it's pretty nice to see stuff like this on sites.

Maybe I’m still young (lol), many of the new designs on CA make me feel closer to “modern apps”.

Oh I am Apprentice just now,great.

You guys are looking at all the wrong things. This is what CA really looks like to me, this IS the pretty stuff.

Click your member icon top right corner, under your name it should show your current rank and progress to the next rank using the new system which is not personalized. It's the one showing those funny badges over our images to the left, like I have a red circle with what look a large lady bending over to put on skirt. It's really humorous but I think we can improve it.

Newbie badge looks like a POV of a hand going for your neck!
