If the icons were SVG or with using some erstwhile Cairo magic, you
could overlay the watermark and fade into them. Maybe like

foreach emblem
        water_down_color (emblem)
        gradient (emblem, down, transparent)
        move (down)
        group (emblems, emblem)

scale (emblems, the_right_size)

Alternatively, just choose the first watermark. :)

Ryan
