I tried using some icons for each category:



Hmm ... I'm not too sure about them. Reducing the size would also make the icons harder to distinguish ... Someone else could probably do a better job.
If you could make the images darker in the middle i think they are great.

I think 1. Same icon for everyone, hover-text tells the details is the best option.  Having 2011 clearly on the icon is the most important because going forward it allows the icons to be distinguishable from next years icons.

I suggest the gold icon with 2011 across the middle and scaled down to a smaller size, with hover text for the specific award.

I like it with the year, personally. If we want an icon, I like the Star medal.

I think the 1st set is the Best - these awards only come once a year so they should be slightly bigger than the usual awards, and having different icons for each winner is a nice way to distinguish them so people remember what they won.
