Inspired from this post. If you can think of anyone who deserves any "custom" stars, nominate them here (just the idea, or even better, the graphic too) ! You can't nominate yourself, and if anyone suggests anything even slightly offensive, we'll toss infractions out as if they were unicorns vomitting rainbows.

Can't promise we'll actually implement the stars, but I'm all for it, so we can bend Demonhood as and when.

As much as I like this, and think there'd be a few good nominations, it would at its most basic level be a popularity contest.

Well there is a fair way to do this, but then it sudden;y becomes too much work for the MacNN staff, and the idea gets killed for that reason instead.

Well I vote for Kevin's request for white stars.

My recommendation is to open it up like the sig. Allow all users to create their own. A set of rules to govern the type and size could be employed.

Lets just say, I don't see that happening.

I think iranfromthezoo could use a set.

I think its a little much to assume that the MacNN staff will make custom stars for everyone. If someone made their own (or someone elses) custom stars, I can't imagine we'd not implement it.

I obviously didn't make my last point very clear. No matter, I've said enough for the time being. Time to sit back ad see what happens.

Well I've made my own for a few years now. Was even told they would eventually be changed. Made a few requests. Nothing.

Not that it's that big of a deal.

But since you've mentioned it here they are.

Peter didn't bother to check with the rest of the staff before creating this thread. So I'll be closing it now.

If we decide it's something to look into, it'll be reopened. Until then, there's no point in discussing it publicly.
