Current status of the Ning Platform is always available on the Ning Status Blog.

Hello NCs,

I'm excited to be able to share one of my first tips/resources to you guys. I had this project done last week ready for the release, but it's only a week off so not a hassle.

Some of you are cooking up ways to implement these badges as well as if you will use images or texts. Let me give you a quick overview of how I did it then I also bring gifts.

My System as of now is based on the fact I call all of my members "STARS" and I have the leaderboard always displaying the TOP 10. Here's my badge examples:

# 1 - 5

Gold Stars



# 6 - 10

Silver Stars




Now Here's Where The Tip Really Comes In Handy. When dealing with .jpg you end up having images that contain backgrounds while with .png you can allow an image to have a transparent background. So after a little Photoshop I give you Special Star png Images.

You may use them because you all have helped so many times that I'm glad I can give back some way.

I also included a Bronze Star just in case some of you wanted to use that as well. They are in the attachments.

    Wow...thanks for sharing..

    • Thank You So Much! You are one of those people who has sent in tips that have helped me over and over again that it's a honor.

  • The stars are great!  Thanks so much for sharing.  Can I ask a favor, please?  Can you give me just one more star - "Maroon"  ...until I can figure out how to do the png images myself, in Photoshop.  Thanks, Ceddy!  :-)

    • Let me know if that works for you :)

      • Thanks, I have all the stars that I need now!  :-)

        • You're welcome glad I could help.
