This is one of the very optional things to think about but, in my experience, it could potentially attract more people to the project. Do not spend too much time on this but go here http://signature.statseb.fr/ if you want to see what other boinc projects did.

I've activated the default boinc server badge system (based on RAC), just to see how it works... Check if you got a badge by looking into your account info...

Yes, it's the badge system recently incorporated in the server code, based on RAC percentiles (top 1% gold, top 5% silver, top 25% bronze). It seems customizable in a very simple way.. so .. when things will go smoother (hopefully) I will probably implement a *real* badge system based on credits/rac/time/... and find better images.
