I have a suggestion. Make a variant of the medal below with a Barnstar instead of the puzzle piece. -- AllyUnion (talk) 08:59, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • I know this is probably a bit weird, but an idea just suddenly popped into my head... See above. -- grm_wnr Esc 03:22, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Interesting concept, and I think it's in the right direction, but I think that I would prefer an actual barnstar of some kind here. My problem is this: what is it, that in a single image summarizes "daily life"? – ClockworkSoul 14:45, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
      • Ok now this is bordering on the ridiculous, but you wanted a real barnstar, a real barnstar you get. Doesn't get any realer! Complete with dorky Westside Wikipedia hand gesture. The chain made out of paper clips may make it just surreal enough to actually work, though. ;) -- grm_wnr Esc 16:58, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  • Here's a thought: How about an image (drawn, not photographed :P ) of a hand holding a barnstar? – ClockworkSoul 16:48, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
    • Maybe we could place a background of a line of city skyscrapers, a farm scene, or something on this Barnstar image. I think any daily scenery would work. Sango123 19:40, Apr 27, 2005 (UTC)
    • Perhaps... I've never been a big fan of backgrounds on barnstars, though. – ClockworkSoul 20:13, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
      • You're probably right, Clockwork. Backgrounds can become tacky. How's this (third image)? I can clean it up a bit if necessary. (Sorry... I can't draw hands that well. ^_^) Sango123 23:27, Apr 27, 2005 (UTC)
        • This is great. For being on the Barnstar pages for only a few days now, Sango, man, you are doing great work. Zscout370 (talk) 23:55, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
        • That's not bad at all... – ClockworkSoul 00:02, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
        • I like it too! Is that barnstar on the bottom anyway related to the resilent barnstar down at the bottom of this page? Bratschetalk random 03:10, Apr 28, 2005 (UTC)
          • I'm sorry, Bratsche... could you tell me which Barnstars you are referring to? Sango123 20:00, Apr 28, 2005 (UTC)
            • Sorry, Sango. I meant your green proposal for the Resilient Barnstar. Bratschetalk random 18:26, Apr 30, 2005 (UTC)
      • Well, if we do have a Vote or Die situation again, my vote is on the barnstar, with the flower, that was drawn by Sango. Zscout370 (talk) 20:16, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Shall we commence a Vote or Die and accept an image? Sango123 July 4, 2005 19:32 (UTC)

Yes. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 4 July 2005 20:04 (UTC)

  3. Sango, you are a barnstar-designer extraordinaire. Bratschetalk 5 pillars July 5, 2005 20:54 (UTC)

Consensus reached! :) Sango123 July 6, 2005 20:16 (UTC)

Okay, now what do we call it?

edit

'The Life Barnstar' sounds kind of bland. How about The Barnstar of Life or The Humanity Barnstar? Sango123 July 6, 2005 20:16 (UTC)

The Barnstar of Life. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 6 July 2005 20:19 (UTC)
