Made on Arch

24/01/2010

Remember those snazzy badges I made some time ago? Well, after having been featured on OMG! Ubuntu! I felt like getting back on the proverbial horse and make some more badges. So I did. I’m not crazy about the font situation, but Arch’s official font seems to be Liberation Sans - so that’s what I’m going with.

As usual, there is one color and one monochrome flavors, both with low-opacity versions. Sticking them on your website is super easy. For more information on that, go check out the Made on Linux page.

If you want me to make badges like these for your favorite distribution, simply shoot me an email (my email is available on the contact page). There are some distributions that I can’t make badges for because of copyright reasons, but I promise I’ll do my best.

Made on Ubuntu

9/08/2009

In the Mac iLife suite there’s a web page builder application that many Mac users seem to be using to create their personal websites. Being that this is an evil Apple application, the program automatically slaps a badge saying “Made on a Mac” on the footer, as to advertise to the world that any moron can create a website with a Mac.

A member at Ubuntu forums had noticed this, and put forth the idea that Ubuntu users should get a similar badge to display on their websites - that is, if they made it on Ubuntu. I kind of liked the idea, even though it might be seen as slightly unfair to Linux users who are using other distributions -  but on the other hand, the only people who would click on such a badge are people who don’t already know what Ubuntu is. In other words, Mac or Windows users.

So I sat down and created some badges…

Mac and Ubuntu badges

Fast forward a few hours, and not only had I made 4 awesome looking badges, but I had also created a pretty neat website to hold them all!

If you have created a website on Ubuntu, go get one of the badges!
