You're right, there probably should, but we just liked the octocat. It's friendly, it's dripping, it's an abomination against nature.
Just so we don't seem like we're spamming the board, I'll add:
* We're VERY interested in "buffs" and levels. Girl scout badges sometimes have little gold doohickeys that attach to a main badge with a chain. We think that would be cool. Also, we think that meaningful border-colors would be awesome. So far, we're thinking of black-bordered DEmerit badges: "Destroyed non-backed-up data." God, I've earned that one.
Your suggestions are absolutely welcomed. Twitter us at @nerdmeritbadges. Right now, we're working on the Regular Expressions merit badge.
Oh, and the best place for a sash? Your laptop lid, naturally! :)
Might as well just advertise for github. I don't need a badge to tell me I can hack. Use the glider symbol from the game of life. Octocat is stupid its cute but stupid it is meaningless.
