Outstanding idea and overall visual quality! Can't wait for all these badges to be published. I especially like them ordered in a linear banner which could be used at the bottom of a post.
...what would even be better is then to include a link from the author to 'follow' them. (just an idea)
Looks like the Badges are popular, I did some Curation Badges, have a look:
