Hello, If it isn't already in the works, I would suggest implementing badges (not just the default BOINC badges). This is a great way to attract users! (Like me :) ) Thks ____________

Badges would be a positive feedback to your users that you appreciate their work that they do for your project(s). We want Badges....... ____________ Proud Founder and member of Have a look at my WebCam

Hi mikey et al. My reasons for not implementing badges at this time: 1) I don't actually like them very much - they clutter things up (IMO) 2) I've already got some nice pictures of trout on the main M+2 site - you could always try and land one of these! :) 3) If it ain't broke,.. J ____________

The advantage to Badges is that alot of people only crunch to make their signature bigger, I'm not one of those people, meaning this project would benefit from an influx of people whose main goal is to earn badges. That can be both a blessing and a curse as it can put a bigger strain on your hardware but you will get thru the numbers quicker. BTW I crunch to attain certain personal goals and the badges are a nice addition, I won't not crunch for a project if it doesn't implement Badges though.

What is your main site address?

The advantage to Badges is that alot of people only crunch to make their signature bigger, I'm not one of those people, meaning this project would benefit from an influx of people whose main goal is to earn badges.
