In light of the lack of any badges of graphics made available to us loyal MBL users, I popped open Google Image Search and typed in MyBlogLog. The first thing that caught my eye was a little familiar in a weird way.

It was a shiny, sleek little MyBlogLog ‘Join My Community’ badge. It was exactly what I was looking for, but I couldn’t figure out why it seemed so familiar.

When I clicked the graphic it took me to a place that I knew I had been before. I was on Nate Whitehill’s blog. Surprise. It seems he is the only one who was clever enough to do up some free MyBlogLog badges so far.

Nate’s only terms are that you join his community and write a post to let your users know where you got the graphic. That seems fair to me. But it got me in the mood to zap up my own little graphic for my MBL reader community. I wanted one that fit to my theme a little better.

My result was not unlike Nate’s but it was something I could call my own. Since there is nothing like this available through MyBlogLog, I feel inclined to allow my readers to use my graphic as well if they wish.

I don’t need every single person who uses my MyBlogLog graphic to link back to me, but joining my community would be nice. If my graphic doesn’t suit your needs, do up your own or ask Nate to get you a custom sized version of his graphic.

Update: 10/22/07 - I have added a new badge as you may have noticed.
