Achievements

headsta.sh quietly tracks milestones and hands out achievements as you hit them. They’re badges, not currency — they don’t unlock features or affect karma — but they mark your history on the site, and a few take real dedication.

Where to find them

  • Your dashboard shows your full grid with an “X of Y unlocked” summary. Locked achievements are visible too, so you know what’s left.
  • Your public profile (/u/<your-name>) gains an Achievements tab once you’ve earned at least one.
  • When you unlock one, you get a notification — “Achievement unlocked” — the moment it happens.

Each achievement shows its icon, name, what it’s for, and the date you earned it.

What you can earn

Activity — for showing up: from your first page view (Welcome aboard) through milestones like Explorer and Wanderer, days-active marks (Regular, Devoted), and visit streaks (On a roll for 7 days running, Unbroken for 30).

Community — for taking part: first reply (Say something), first forum topic (Thread starter), and their bigger siblings (Conversationalist, Topic maker), plus karma landmarks (Well regarded at 100, Community pillar at 1,000).

Collecting — for buying: your first purchase (First haul) and your tenth (Collector).

Publishing — for creating: your first published shader (Shipped it) and your tenth (Prolific). See Publishing Shaders.
