Well the time has come to announce the winner of the 6 Month Badge Winner....and in a shocking turn of events (and abuse of power) the winner is one that was not even in the vote:

But seriously, I do think it is safe to say that this contest is over, we have a clear cut winner with this outstanding design from ThorButtockthLarge: 64x64: The only thing I might ask is if ThorButtockth would mind if we try fitting in months under the image, nothing that would intrude of course.

To those who voted for the Homer Donut, know that you made this nitwitted nincompoop very proud of his work. I'm glad so many of you liked it. To those of you who didn't and voted for something different, I apologize for this one winning. To make it up to you, I shall send each of you a small Tim Hortons coffee through the mail (I take no responsibility if the mail service declines such a package). I wouldn't mind at all if the word 'Months' was included in the badge. I remember trying a couple variations of that while I was making it but couldn't find a way to do it that I personally found appealing... but now the badge is for all of you, so yes, by all means feel free to make any changes or inclusions you'd like that you think would work.

Is it too soon to start a "Where's our 6 month badge" thread yet?

That is my concern that it will look crappy, we will take a shot and by we I mean someone other than me Andy? Spiffshine...art department? But otherwise we will leave it as is, who cares if there is confusion when this forum turns 6, I mean 5 years from now I bet the badges will be holograms that will actually feed us the donut, plus if I am still here in 5 years I might have to evaluate life a little...so with that said maybe we leave it as is and just start passing them out.

I'll try adding months to it.

mdfriend, above the badges you have a row of little icons. What do they mean? And how did you get them?

Alright here's what I came up with: I actually like this. It would appear that your graphic design skills are improving. If only @yossarian was here to see this day.

Of course they are improving, I wouldn't expect anything else. And though perhaps I've been too hard and too brash, graphic design is more that choosing a typeface and applying drop shadows.

True, but what a typeface it is. I mean its all swirly and neat-o.

Alright here's what I came up with: My only problem with this is that the yellow is a bit hard to see. I had to squint a bit to see it better,

I think we should just leave it as it is. The writing will barely be readable at small sizes, and it's not like we'll be here to turn 6 years old anyway... right? ... I wonder if somebody will remember this and quote me in 6 years? Oh geez, I'll be over 30. P.S. Congrats, ThorButtockth! I love the badge, very unique and very fitting!

I really like this one, I didn't pick it though because I like to vote for the underdog.
