We were wondering how long it would take someone to notice. :)

Oddly enough, this happened because of an unexpected problem with moving GCW to BOINC. I expected it to take all of 30 seconds to make new badges for GCW. It turned out that "GCW" was much too wide to fit in the existing badges with the font we're using. We most definitely didn't want to make the font any smaller. There also wasn't any decent alternative for the letters. ("WOO" is also too large, which is why the badge has said "Wn" instead.)

So we made the badges larger.

Besides the badges and the fonts being larger, the text changed for a few badges:

AP 26 became AP.

Cn became Cul.

Wn became Woo.

The new badges will be "GCW" and "GCW SV" when those projects go live.

(And, yes, I know the TDP badges are still small. Those have to be drawn by hand.)

EDIT: If some of the badges (other than the TDP badges) remain displayed at the smaller size, hit F5 or CTRL-F5 to force your browser to bypass its cache and download the updated images.

I will bite and be the first to ask: any ballpark estimates when the new projects could be live?

Not too long, but we're not ready to talk about schedules yet.

Those new projects are secretly the same TRP SV app disguised under a different name, so that people will badge hunt for them and speed up the sieve! I knew it...

Let the conspiracy theories begin!

Lovely new badges :). Thought it was browser zoom issue at first...

Looking forward to reawakening my GCW sv badge that's been dormant for probably 4 years - I assume that's what will happen. As if we weren't spoilt for choice already!

Also the badges mean one doesn't have 1 full line then an odd one on a second line on a maximised homepage.

If anyone's going to Ctrl+F5 to update their badges, I suggest doing so at the Badges thread. It'll update all the images, rather than updating only those of the users in whatever page you are currently on.

And while we are at it, someone could update the PSP SV and AP badges to reflect their retirement / revivals. Or wait until TRP SV goes out and GCW (SV) comes in, that's an option too.

Will the exported badges be larger as well?

I'm not sure what you mean.

This grid of badges is starting to look like a bingo card.

Which made me think of some interesting challenge possibilities for Primegrid bingo, especially having so many bases for GCW from which to randomly generate bingo cards. Throw in other subproject/base combinations, and pretty soon you have enough variety to make things interesting.
