Hi, Stormy and I were talking in IRC in #marketing a few weeks ago,
and I suggested we might want to make the badges available on the
thank you page similar to how the EFF does it with the code for the
user to copy / and paste (http://www.eff.org/badges).

I wasn't sure how to create a patch, but I did update the HTML to make
it look similar to the EFF page above by adding a textarea with the
code for the user.  File is attached.

If there is interest in changing the page, please review to make sure
my HTML is correct (worked locally for me) and someone with gnome-web
access could commit.

I also fixed a typo, as the page currently reads:

Add one of those banners to your website:

I changed it too:

Add one of these banners to your website:

Let me know if any changes need to be made.

Thanks.
