   Because aesthetics are important i would like to know how i go about adding those nice little mini headers to my README.md that tell the user in one quick view which programming language i am using, what sort of release it is and at which version my program is and stuff like that. You know, the little colored buttons.

   Depends what you want them to do. They're all just images. The ones that change dynamically, take the build status one on ISS for example, are also images and a third party service swaps out what is served at that url based on the last automated build attempt (if the build fails it will serve the "failing" image, and vice versa). If you just want the aesthetics though you can make your own badge and embed it in your readme (see GHF markdown docs for the syntax).

   Yeah, as long as they're not displaying anything dynamically.
