Wait...

EDIT: I like the "One of Us" idea, cool phrase.

Well, let's say we don't want to use the current image of the person's silhouette. What image suggests "Escapist community" to you?

The only thing I can think of is the cap guy. Sorry.

How about using an icon similar to the "Chatty" badge (speech bubble with an exclamation point), and as some others have suggested, just tuck it away in the corner of an image so it's visible but not blocking the art.

I like it!

So it should be in the corner and scream guest review? How about a golden E for an icon. Because we're special. If I ever get a guest review though I'm going to put an image of my face photoshopped onto the main characters body a lá Ross Atherton. Lets hope I don't review Tomb Raider.

A black silhouette with a white E on the forehead, or vise versa?

There's a load of stuff, though I think that the cursive E is a prominent one. Perhaps just a cursive EC would do? I'm not quite sure... TsunamiWombat's idea sounds slick.

In Soviet Russia, game reviews you!

My idea is similar to Lvl 64 Klutz's. It would be either a thought bubble or speech bubble in the same semi-transparent style as you have the play button now. I think that'd be stylish, and help keep in a sort of uniform style. Might just be me and my affinity for things that match though.

Granted, this mock-up isn't very well-polished, but it almost conveys what I'm trying to suggest.

The emblem in the center should be made much more transparent, and the edges could very easily be smoothed out, but this is a functional representation of what I'd like to suggest. Which is a small circular emblem that looks like the current guest review icon. The mock-up is this:

Hopefully that conveys more or less what I'm suggesting.

I'd suggest this but with the Escapist's "E". and the rods "guest review" written across the bottom.
