Title: Show off your Collection Stats
Post by: TraderJake on March 04, 2007, 09:12:38 PM
Here is something for you all that not even the staff knew about. Want to pimp your collection stats in an easy, banner sized image? Here you go! This image generates in real time your collection stats for the games database. To get your stats up here is the general link:
http://www.rfgeneration.com/PHP/banners.php?banner=collectionstats;user=USER
Your stats will show up when you replace USER with your forum username. It may also be advantageous to save this as a separate image, as the loading speed is at the mercy of the mySQL server.
Enjoy!

I was told i must actually have something in my collection to use this image.
Probably just a login issue.
I'll try again when i get home...

I should mention that if your username is 1 or 2 Characters larger than the string "Rajaat the Warbringer" it probably won't fit on the banner.

Just to let anyone know:
If you want to get that banner to show up on a board other than SMF, say for example DP or boards where that direct link doesn't work, you'll need to save the image to your file and host it elsewhere, for example photobucket.com. It won't be in real time, but it'll do two things:

- You can actually use it on other forums that are not SMF
- It keeps RF Generation's load averages down, and in theory keeps our site from being bogged down.
