SVG is great! We’ve just added a small, but very neat feature that allows you customizing badge text.

This looks really great for batch-specific status badges put in one line (these are statuses for Grunt.js project):

master branch badge osx-travis branch badge legacy-log branch badge

To customize SVG badge titles for pending, failing and passing states add pendingText, failingText and passingText query parameters respectively.

For example:

https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/32r7s2skrgm9ubva?svg=true&passingText=master%20-%20OK&failingText=master%20-%20Fails

Read more about status badges in AppVeyor documentation.

Enjoy!
