New challenge coming right up!

Hi, all!

We previously hosted our achievement badges on image-hosting site Imgur, but on 30 September, Imgur blocked people in the UK from accessing its content. It’s taken us a little while, but we’ve uploaded the badges to a private hosting site.

We’ve updated the Achievement Badges page and the Creator and Community Reports.

How do I update my badge links if I want to do that?
To update your badge links:

1. Go to the Creator Report and search on your username.


2. Under Details, click Badges, and then under View, click Badges again.
   
   
   
   Result: The badges you’ve earned will display, with a Copy Embed button under each.


3. Click the Copy Embed button under each of your badges, and paste the embed codes in place of your old badge links.

I can still see my badges! Do I have to update the links?
We have no plans to remove or change the old Imgur links. If you have badges embedded on your profile page or anywhere else, you can leave your badge links as is. But if you do, the badges will not be visible to people in the UK.

Our new challenge is:

STAR
