Mahalo.com, the knowledge sharing service; helping people quickly find the best information on topics, how to’s and coupons. Members of the public can also earn money by contributing to Mahalo topic pages or by answering questions on the Mahalo Answers Q&A system.

All ages, mostly US audience, looking for questions, answers and articles.

Mahalo.com is about to launch badges as a new website feature. Our users will earn these badges when they complete tasks on the website.

We want designs similar to what is seen on Gowalla.

Here is an example from Gowalla - http://gowalla.com/spots/new

We need you to provide us with 2 badge designs as a test to make sure we are headed in the right direction.

The badge samples we want to see are:

1) Researcher - showing a graphic of a scientist or test tube

2) Explorer - showing a graphic of a compass

Upon approval of the samples, we will proceed to develop 40+ badges together.

We need the badges as vectors in two sizes (53x53 pixels and 92x92 pixels).
