As described in this ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/design-team/ticket/55, Planet GNOME uses special "badges" to show who's participating in Google's Summer of Code, and here on Planet Fedora they had FUDCon ribbons to use directly on the hackergotchis.
I'm now making a template for future use. What I have in mind is a simple Inkscape file that everyone can open up, and then change the text and the color easily, before adding it to his or her hackergotchi. I've made some simple mock-ups here: http://schendje.fedorapeople.org/HackergotchiBadges/mockup1.png (source is at http://schendje.fedorapeople.org/HackergotchiBadges/try2.svg). This is an example of how they would look on Planet F: http://schendje.fedorapeople.org/HackergotchiBadges/example1.png
My intention is to keep them very simple, because space is limited. The middle three columns of "big" badges are 100px wide, which is pretty much the maximum size for a hackergotchi.
What do you think so far? I'd be happy to try out and implement some other ideas. :)
