It would appear that my name ("Anton Geraschenko♦♦" on my site) is too long for flair. On SO, my flair looks like this:
flair fail
But on my site, and if I make my name longer on SO, the flair fails:
flair fail flair fail 2

Any ideas for hacks to get my flair to look right? Of course, I could remove my site logo, but I'd rather figure out some way to change the width of the flair box.

I think your only option is to use the JS or JSON version and display the content in your own format (as image or HTML). JSON is more work, but most flexible. JS is a bit hacky since you'd be overwriting the existing styles from flair-[theme].StackOverflow.css and limited to the layout of elements it adds to the DOM.

Here are a couple PHP scripts that generate an image from the JSON feed:

Now that's simple!

Just remove your admin privileges.

It might also fit if you make yourself a moderator.

:D

Later edit
Just look how nice it looks without admin privileges:
alt text

Or just as a moderator (it should look the same with a "♦" where that "d" is):
alt text

(yes, my friends sometimes tell me that I make too elaborate jokes)

Can't you modify the CSS so that the wrapping is set to "overflow", so it doesn't jump out of the box?

I'm not on my main computer with Firebug so I can't be sure about this answer.
