Hello everyone.
As KDE sysadmins provided us web statistics for join the game, I looked at it 
and realised: we basically have very very limited visitors on join the game.

And, whenever someone makes a blog post about join the game, we get a few new 
registrations.

So I thought we should provide images that people could embedd into their 
webpages / blogs.
Please note that we already have a few images [1][2][3][4] but very few people 
use it, because
1) Its not obvious what its all about.
2) Its not really encouraging for members to use it.

Now, Im thinking that we should provide them images to embedd, which is a bit 
more self-explaintory and more encouraging.
For example an image which has some text on it, like:
"Jacky Boy, official supporting membber of KDE" or
"Jacky Boy, 103'th supporing member of KDE"

Now, promo guys and gals, please give us some idea's about some images that 
would encourage them to embed to their webpages and encourage people to click 
on them and become members.

Few notes:
1) Nuno is going to help us make the widgets look super good.
2) I think adding a member's information, like his name, to the images, would 
be seriously encouraging for members to actually use it.
3) Idea is that images are dynamically generated by webapp. So they could 
login to jointhegame.kde.org, get a list of images, find one they would like to 
embedd and copy/paste its url into their blog.
4) We probably need a few different size's of image, suitable for forum 
signatures, blog columns, blog headers, etc.

Any more ideas, shoot.
