Official thread to request signature badges (both tiers)


Recommended Posts

I see some of the users have the yellow badge with their name in it. How do I do that?

Update (April 2010):

Go here and scroll down until you see 'Official Neowin Signature'. Click the image. Done.

EDIT (by Calum):

lcg has kindly agreed to help provide badges for those who request them, using The_Decryptor's script. Use this thread to request a badge :)

That would be fine by me. I'm more than happy to generate them for people. The script could also produce tier 1 Subscriber badges, but I'd need the tier 1 base image (i.e. the signature image with no username on it). I'll try and track down the PSD that Rob posted, as that'll have the base image.

I also just want to make clear to everyone that this is The_Decryptor's script, that he released. Kudos to him. I didn't have any role in making it.

The_Decryptor made a PHP script to generate subscriber signatures, and released it. I've got it installed on my site, so I've generated two versions for you to chose from. Credit goes to The_Decryptor.

Could you create those for me as well? Thanks in advance!

If you got extra time and don't know what to do.... I'd love to have one too! :) :)

Rep +1 from me as well lcg ;) I don't know how long these badges take to make, using the script, but perhaps this thread could become an official request thread for the badges? It's up to you lcg :D If you don't have the time, that'd be understandable, but I know some members don't know where to look in relation to the Subscriber2 badges. Does the script also produce tier 1 Subscriber badges?

Only downside is that I can't seem to add the image to my signature yet - I get an error message saying that it exceeds the allowed image dimensions when it doesn't. Which I guess is down to the few remaining quirks which still have to be fixed.

No big issue though, cosmetic fixes like that can wait.

Yeah, I made a thread about that. It seems the maximum signature dimensions have accidentally been set as 170 x 550 rather than 550 x 170.

Doesn't work yet - I still get

[#10211] This image is larger than the maximum allowed dimensions of 170 x 550.

when I try to add the signature image, the dimensions of which are 276 x 79.

Try adding it now to your signature, I tweaked some settings. And here's the Subscriber 1 background for you - thanks lcg :)

Yeah, I'm getting the same error too.

    • I'm not unblocking my camera for this crapola. Sorry, Google.
    • Ummmm that is what is it supposed to do. Just turn if off in settings if you do not want it analyzing your open tabs. Chrome does the same thing with Gemini. Sarfari will do the samething after Apple's AI and even more so with the release of their 27 versions that is now powered by Googles LLM/ML models. Understanding why it is doing it and how it can help you vs jumping to some conspiracy theroy is a much better approach. As long as it can be turned off, all is good. Yes the default should be off but the a lot of people would never discover these features.
