You should also use a flexible color filter over the whole picture in the end (after the faces have been generated). Like looking through a slightly blue (or red or green or whatever you like
) colored window. This should give the backgrounds a little more "sci-fi" atmosphere and let the faces appear in the correct light. This combined with the blurry backgrounds should really do the trick here.Otherwise, sometimes less is more: Completely black and white with noise filter over it would be great, or why not black and white with blue (a little bit like star wars holograms)?Just some thoughts

If, at a low rank, you will get no respect at all, however the higher up the ranks you go, attackers would be more wary in their response to you once they find out who you are, even to the point of legging it if your totally bad news! 
I think such a feature would make the player feel special (if they worked hard at raising their rank) or more determined to prove themselves unworthy of insults (for those just starting out).
Well I havent made one for ages but I only just noticed too that the old shodan one is missing.Damn it looks like my old site where I kept them has gone. (s20dan.co.cc) They were too large for dark-one's site and I didn't want to take the piss so I stuck them on a crappy free site...Luckily I kept a copy of them all
