My only comment would be to make both the name and the irc/Talk nick larger, I don't really care about the rest of the design, just as long as I can quickly look at people from a distance and see who they are.
Making the member name a bit bigger is not a problem I think.
And of course you will require a special badge tag: Lardman, better than random.

I think someone is working already in a badge proposal at Nokia. I will send them an email on Monday referring to this thread to avoid duplicate work.
Thanks texrat for the initiative!

Good to hear! It was a fun exercise for me if nothing else.

I second lardman here.
Your online name is more important than your real name on these badges.
Come on, you know what I mean. Everyone knows Texrat. Nobody knows that Randall dude.
Like many here on maemo.org, I lead this weird double life. I'd rather keep my muggle name out of it altogether, if I could.

Never trust people who have a first name for their last name (I'm looking @ you Texrat & qole 
)
)

So let's get back to actual badge ideas. Any critiques over the first idea? Any suggested changes? New ideas?
