I propose a new microformat that credits the designer of a web page.  If the client doesn't want it visible, you can use visibility:hidden in the stylesheet. But should be always in the HTML of the page.
==Problem==
Many web designers, like me, create numerous web sites for clients. Normally we leave some kind of signature link at the bottom of the page, if the client permits.


<div class="designby">
It might be helpful to establish a standardized markup for this.
<a rel="design_shop" href="http://authorswebsite.com">Website Design</a> by <span rel="designer">Joe Webdesigner</span>.
</div>


I'm sure you Microformat pros can improve on this.  Please do.

Taking Brian's suggestion, we could add a class to hCard.  I'll put up an example soon.
