Add this group to your +watch to get notified of new deviantART badges when they come out. All badge fanatics are welcome to join. Badges are icons that can be added to your personal profile. Below are listed all the known types of badges, including how to obtain them. Not all badges are publicly available and some have been discontinued. All badges (except llama and cake) are given by devart, a deviantART System Bot. Because devart is not a human that account can't answer to your questions about the different badges. Also deviantART admins can give some other badges than just llamas and cakes. This group can't give any badges because we are not deviantART admins. Badges can be removed from your account if you contact the help desk. Your 5 newest badges are featured on the Home tab of your profile. If you arranged your badge order before the 2020 Eclipse, those will be your featured badges. Your newest badge will push your right most featured badge out if you earn any new badges (even if you arranged them). If you want to remove all badge notifications go to www.deviantart.com/settings/ge… and choose 'Disable message center notifications for badges'. A group can have badges besides llamas and cakes if it was converted from a regular dA account using convertaclub before July 4th, 2010. Click here for proof. Cake badges can be given to groups using deviantart.com/GROUP-NAME-HERE/badges/cake/ Llama badges can be given to groups using deviantart.com/GROUP-NAME-HERE/badges/llama/ Click here to give this group a llama.

We appreciate every badge!User Badges Information Masterlist
This information no longer applies to deviantART since the May 2020 Eclipse update.
You can feature 5 badges on your profile page. If you have collected more than 5 badges you can choose the featured badges here: https://me.deviantart.com/badges
Only your first two featured badges are visible in the mobile version of the site.
If you want to remove all featured badges from your profile page go to: https://me.deviantart.com/badges/ There is a link 'Clear all featured badges'.
This imgur gallery shows the badges that the Eclipse update broke due to the removed categories site wide feature. I screenshotted and recorded:
- the categories needed to get certain badges with their corresponding badges above them
- what badges USED to look like on dA
- Gifs of how to rearrange, remove, and add featured badges in old dA
This is all of the new information about badges I have compiled.

If you arranged your badge order before the 2020 Eclipse, those will be your featured badges. Your newest badge will push your right most featured badge out if you earn any new badges (even if you arranged them).
The Llama Giver Button Creator still works! It allows you to make a link just like this. I figured out a work around finally. Go through the steps and when you are asked to find "gmi-gruser_id", look for "userid" instead because of site changes since the link creator was made.
