They're pretty fucking ugly, y'all. Decline, popamole, next-gen crapjuice. Especially when somebody's donated to more than a few. So why not just click the option to not display them? Well, because I do think it nice to show that you've supported these developers. There's just got to be a better way...or place to put them if not a better idea for the tags altogether. Maybe find a way to shove them in the signature area like this:

They should be small logos. Very small.

1-5 letter sized seems ok.

ttn w2 d:os

(but with images, for the alt-text obviously... but if you could wing a alt-text with normal text it would be best, because text rendering is ok at all sizes but images suck).
Not 'race traitor sized'
The race traitor tag is amusing, but in 10 years, there are 20 other kickstarted projects things won't look pretty. Unless you're going to remove them once the games come out.
In fact, they already look like shit on members that donated a lot

I also think that section should come after the Joined date and posts. Simply because not every member will have the same 'volume' there and those sections are predictably one-line.
What? It's aesthetics.

Yeah, it's bad the way the avatar visually merges with the tags.

Tags are ugly as is the news ticker. The race traitor tag was an ok little joke, but now with adding a tag for each Kickstarter it's full retard.

You think people would be aware by now that the fact it looks like a fugly popamole mess is exactly why DU implemented it....

The tags are fucking terrible, they should be something more classy and unobtrusive like the Patron tag.

Grab the Codex by the pussy
On my forum, we use standardized pixel dimensions for badges, regardless of what shape they are. 38 x 38 works well. The biggest problem here is that RACE TRAITOR tag. It's too damned big.

>mfw RPG Codex can't figure out how to make badges not look retarded
