Good point. I've re-done the graphic boosting the text size by 25% and
re-working the graphic's format somewhat. Now the page is set to display
it at 80 pixels width (which I think is quite acceptible in terms of size
- it could even go to 100)  and the text (while small) is clearly legible.

I'm open to any design. ;-> I chose this one since it gives the sense that
being a CCN Featured IP 'puts your name up in lights' and thus serves as a
visual indication of the distinction. If anyone else want to take a crack
at a design give it a whirl!

Take a look at the new version of the present draft at:

My pleasure. I'm going to send it out to all-ips today.

Cheers!
