Statistics Signature

[KermMartian]

From my site:

Code: Select all

A while back I was browsing ti-news.net and I noticed a neat image generator Jake had made to parse ticalc.org stats. Unfortunately, it didn't work in forums, and it didn't display the name of the author. To remedy this, I coded my own parser and generator in php. To implement it in any forum signature:

[url=http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/authors/NN/NNNN.html] [img]http://www.cemetech.net/img/sig/NNNN.png[/img][/url]

Where NNNN is your 4-digit author ID and NN is the first two digits thereof. To implement it in an html page, simply use the tag.

eg
http://www.cemetech.net/img/sig/6077.png



It's actually a php script, http://www.cemetech.net/img/misc/sig.php?yournum , but I had to rewriteengine mask it to make phpbb accept the image.

You had to what?

And doesn't this put too much load on your server and Ticalc.org's?

[KermMartian]

I made an htaccess entry with the RewriteEngine to map the directory.
Nope, it only dls the first 8kb of the file from ticalc.org, regardless of the author, 'cause that's where the text is. And it's a very efficient script on my server, I made it exec in about 0.005 seconds.

[KermMartian]

Same here...it seems like people have to be registered and logged in to view half the stuff on Kerm's site.

Dudes, you have to change yourticalcnum in http://www.cemetech.net/img/sig/yourticalcnum.png to a NUMBER, your ticalc.org id (usually 4 digits) as stated in the first post.

Hahaha I call that a comliment
Criticism encourages people to improve. When I make something myself I always keep listing all the things that I think aren't as good as they could be (or just plain suck), and when that list is limited to the neccessities (due to technical limitations etc) I release it. That's probably why I haven't released much But at least it guarantees that something I DO release should be unique and state of the art

Anyway, for the record: Well done Kerm

Thank you, Timendius! I appreciate that.

That's actually pretty cool. Good job Kerm.

Cool indeed, too bad I'm too ashamed of my worthless published programs (all released within the first 6 months after I got my calc, almost 3 years ago now) to use it.
