Make a Friendlier Administrator Badge

Let’s take a moment to look at some of the Roblox Badges on the website:

Can anyone spot the difference between the rest of them and the Administrator badge?

I don’t really have any designs to suggest beyond “make it more attractive,” but looking at it, I feel it’s obvious that it could use some TLC.

In its defence I feel like it’s supposed to stand out amongst the others to make it easier to tell who is a genuine admin, and thus deter people from being tricked by fake admins etc.

The only change I would make is to make the logo white instead of red so that it feels slightly more consistent among the other badges which also use white for their icons. I think the dark background (the shield) would still be enough to constitute making it stand out.

Notice how there’s another logo inside the logo? kind of cute…

Maybe make the outline the same colour as the outline on the shield though. The solid black looks a little out of place.

I think there should be a little bit of colour in it, otherwise it’s the only greyscale badge.

I added some color, but it didn’t look the best. It’s okay, but it doesn’t really follow the theme.

All of the other badges have white as their “icon” with the border being the base color. The shield in the admin badge is the same as the OBC badge, which is mostly gray.

This would look a lot better.

This is great. Goes back to the original color scheme that we’re used to too.

The grey versions make the administrators seem much less… “inviting.”

This is beautiful :heart_eyes:

I prefer the grey version

I think the two of the requirements we have regarding this badge is that the logo can’t be altered and it has to be red. Do you guys have any suggestions with these constraints?

disclaimer: I don’t have the final say regarding this badge.

What’s the point of having a modern logo then? One of the main arguments for this logo was that it can be altered easily to fit in a lot of different situations, but here you are telling us (by example) that we shouldn’t alter the logo? Isn’t that kind of backwards?

With “the logo can’t be altered” they mean no adding outlines, warping it, etc.

Thank you! That’s exactly what I meant, haha.

There isn’t much that can be done that follows the theme of the other badges. All the badges has a border and a white “icon”.

It is the companies own logo. I wouldn’t think the company really has to follow their own guidelines since they own the logo.

It’s a shame it has to be red and unmodified. I understand why, but looks a bit too clinical compared to the aesthetics of the other badges. TigerCode’s white on red is good because it fits the other badge’s aesthetics, but there’s not really a way to do that with the unmodified logo due to its sharp edges.

edit: It’s a real shame that it has to be the red logo, because making the white one look good is easier than making the red one do so.

That’s what I was responding to.

I think even just making the background lighter will make the badge seem friendlier, since it’s removing the regal black in the current version:

I personally feel as if making the badge blue would help.

We still run into the issue of it, apparently, having to be red. That one looks good, though.
