A truck just unloaded some new badges here today. The delivery was a bit delayed, so I have applied the Krampusnacht badge to anyone who visited the forums on 5 December 2023.

 

The other badges will be applied automatically as usual.

 

This year, three out four badges were generated using an AI tool. Can you spot them?

 

Also, suggestions for badges to be assigned in 2024 are welcome - I know I missed Matariki 2023 so we should correct this.

I'm guessing New Years day 2024 is NOT AI generated?

Maybe the BDFL will make a badge exception for the first Geekzone owner of a Cyber Truck that takes him for a drive :)

Some good suggestions there, so I think I will be loading some new 2024 badges during the holidays.

 

 

 

ANglEAUT:

 

I'm guessing New Years day 2024 is NOT AI generated?

 

 

@ANglEAUT was the only one attempting to answer my question. The only non-AI image is the Festivus. I used an image-generator to create the Krampus, Christmas and New Year badges.
