Before I start this off, I just want to make it clear than I'm talking about banners that you can earn like 'Donor' and 'Trusted Seller' - not banners that you can put in your signature (as well as lowering the signature size). If you would like to read more about that, @Dom has a great thread made about that which you can check out here.
With the introduction of the new community achivements, it is now technically possible to have this many banners:
13 banners? If you thought the badges took up space, I'll be horrified to see how 13 medium sized banners look when someone gets them all lol. My idea is to have either one of two things:
Addendum A: After putting in some more thought, would it be better to scrap the Staff Member banner and create two separate 'Moderator' and 'Administrator' banners? This way, we could keep the staff banners like they are, and then turn the rest of the banners into the smaller badge shapes. Thoughts?

13 banners? If you thought the badges took up space, I'll be horrified to see how 13 medium sized banners look when someone gets them all lol. My idea is to have either one of two things:
- Make the banners smaller (like smaller squares) so they take up less room. This idea is very similar to how Smogon displays achievements, but it works pretty damn well. Their idea for displaying achievements is a marquee (scrolling) of their banners, but they are quite small as Smogon have a lot more possible banners than we do. Here are a few examples:
- Filter your earned banners and only display a few of these - I mainly added this one on due to request, and there definitely are upsides to this. Unlike the other option, this allows people to keep the same banner sizes as they are right now, but you may only display around 4 of them at one time. Whilst this does mean sizes are the same, it does get a bit difficult for users to decide which banners they want to display, e.g. what happens if one has a Team Banner, Staff Banner, Trusted Seller Banner, Mod Banner, a Tournament Champion Banner and Friendzilla? Most of those are quite nice to show off, so it would be difficult to only display a select few.
