The very first thing I do when creating achievement images is make myself a set of images for the achievement levels. For instance, I have a set for 3-star achievements, a set for 4-star, 5-star, etc. As it turns out, each set is exactly the same, so once you have your sets of stars, the only thing you need to do is get the base image, and then paste each level at the bottom.

There are two ways I've gone about getting the base image. The first is to log on as a low level account and start pulling base images. This is probably the easier way.

The second way is to mirror the background to wipe out the completion banner. The background is symmetric, so it involves cropping a piece of the image from the right side, mirroring it (vertical axis flip), and then pasting it on the left side. Note that this only works for achievements that don't have any image content under the achievement completion banner (for instance, SF build achievements won't work).

Please note that we started uploading all achievement images with a specific naming scheme. They are Achievement_ _ .png. For instance, Social Beast is named Achievement_VisitNeighbours_SocialBeast.png.

I appreciate if you want to tackle this issue, there are currently 443 achievements, so that's a lot of work. I'll see if I can't upload some images to make it easier on you.
