why do these medals look like old cookies?

Seriously, they are there to award people, right? So why do they look so unappealing?

Medals should look like this: http://images.google.com/search?q=medal&imgsz=&btnG.x=0&btnG.y=0&biw=1920&bih=1048&tbm=isch

Nice and shiny, you want to touch them. :)

If ours look anything like medals, the look like really old and used ones. (if you look closely they even have big dents.. ;-) )

best regards, rob

Actually I was eating cookies when I drew them up in photoshop. ;-)

The designs are somewhat temporary as eventually here we'll be moving to a more metro design and the icons will change.

Hahahaha!

Maybe when they're older like this then they're worth more because they have historical value? =^)
