Fresh Badge Generator

August 20, 2007

I’ve seen quite a few badge generators, but I don’t think I’ve seen one as good as Fresh Badge Generator.

In true Web 2.0 style, you can create numerous variations until you get just the right combination of color, font, glare, gloss, and shadow. You even have your choice of shapes: retro flower, sawtooth seal, rounded flower, or circle.

Feeling swirl-ish? No problem, just tell it by how much. Want to add a peel? You have your choice of making it a foil backing or the same as the image itself.

To show just how easy it is, I’ve made a few samples. Recognize these blogs?

Kyle's Cove  Brown Baron  Pink Hat

If FBG was keeping track of user wishes, mine would be: allow 2-line text, larger font size (it goes up to 48 pt.), different shapes to choose from, and the ability to upload images would be nice, too.

    Baron 2.0 looks like a peanut butter cup. LOL

    Great job. I’m always amazed at some of the badges out there. Graphics was never my strong suit.

    Wow, this is amazing. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I made a nifty little badge for a post that features a new campaign on my blog where you can purchase link space. It looks great and it’ll make the offer look twice as appealing. I love all of your finds. :)

    BTW, I hear that you have some competition on my contest… Christine has been talk some smack about ya! LOL…

    I am joking she hasn’t said anything bad… nothing but good words from Christine about you.

    I look forward to seeing how the contest will pan out. Christine and I were also talking about BAO and your application. She is going to be contacting you with some details tomorrow.

    Take care man,
