Introduction of Build-Off Participant badges!

I finally figured out something I had wanted to introduce to you all for a LONG time now:

Badges!

These are images that will appear under your avatar on all your posts, as well as on your profile. They give a clear indicator that you did/ participated in something. Here's an example:



For now, these are only for Build-Off participants, however there may be more in the future. These can only be activated by a Moderator or above (to prevent stolen valor), but I am thinking of introducing "fun" ones in the future.

So, if you would like to activate your badge, post below or send me a PM. Once I verify you actually participated, I will activate your badge so you can proudly wear it on the forum!

Hi Doug could you activate my 2015 build off Participant and 2016 build off Participant badge?

Sweet! Excellent job Doug! Make me wish I was on board a few more months in advanced to participate!

Theres always next year. As you can see, I have up to 2020 prepared.

[adm]Update![/adm]

I just updated the badges. I didnt test them before they were implemented, but now I think they look a thousand times better!

They look much better now Doug! Doesn't 'pollute' the page as much.

I think they look pretty cool. Nice!

Very cool Doug! Anything that we have to do to enable them? I was in the 2015 Build Off but don't have a badge :-\

You just did. They're set so only an Admin can activate them to prevent abuse. You're all set now!

Thank you Sir.

I was a participant in the 2014, 2015, and 2016 build off, but didn't quite finish the build for this year. Do I get badges or do you have to finish?

You need only be a participant. There may be finalist badges in the future for those who make it.

Thank you Doug!

Can you activate 2015 and 2016 for me please

It is done
