You're so sharp, but mine shows correctly silver and that's what counts... (seeing a problem there building on how to comment the correct min.contr.time in since it's none standard ;>)

Mine also blue not silver, some badges need a rework by removing white pixels.

Those are burned out pixels on your display ;>). They all look fine to me f.a.i.a.f.a ... only have new max badges with blue-ish or bronze/silver/gold.

Can I just say I don't like the look of the new blue/red badges, they're just not aesthetically pleasing. But I know lots of people have been clamouring for new badge-levels, so the public get what the public want....
----------------------------------------I also don't like the new order of projects on the My Grid page. I wanted my soon-to-get HCMD2 badge next to my HCMD one. Hey-ho. Update: No, I've changed my mind. The ruby and emerald backgrounds do work quite well, though the sapphire less well (but there's no risk I'll ever get one of those). The mixture of colours looks nice, especially ruby/gold. And now the big-hitters really stand apart from the likes of me.... And the new project order is fine too. I just wish I'd got my HCMD2 badge a week earlier.  [Edit 2 times, last edit by GB033533 at Jul 21, 2009 10:20:07 AM] |

So did IBM have a say in the background color ratings?
Blue = highest IBM = big blue looks like a subliminal message to me  |

Just kidding, but there's nothing subliminal about this. Blunt in the face for all to see. Here's what the word means http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subliminal_message and you get a craving for a double burger with deep fries when watching The Simpsons.

yes i think its going to be an intresting run for badges now
----------------------------------------personaly its going to take me months to get the badges i want up to there next color and is going to definalty change how i hunt for badges i think this is good and bad for me i may put a project or 2 a little on the back burner for a bit to upgrade some of my other badges right now i am working on HCMD2 (78 days to ruby) HFCC (81 days to ruby) CEP (88 days to ruby) RICE (73 days till Emerald) HCC (264 days Sapphire) FA@H (363 days to Sapphire) to me i can get one of the top 4 to ruby/emerald in about 14 day (each) or i can spend 70+days to get one of the HCC or FA@H to Sapphire. I think for me with my given computer time i am going to work to get as many green and reds before i got for my blues |

{snip} I also don't like the new order of projects on the My Grid page. I wanted my soon-to-get HCMD2 badge next to my HCMD one. Hey-ho. Looks like they're sorted by Points Generated now instead of by name. |
