Get your dynamic zOMGBadges signature now!
What it does now:
Takes your Gaia UserID and Fetches your current avatar, current badges (which are saved to a database for some features to come), and spits out some BBCode or HTML to use to display your dynamic signature image with a link to allow people to view what badges you have.
Here is a working model: (Note, you might have to display blocked images if you are set to only see whitelisted images)
*Update* Points system is in full swig. All badges have been assigned a point value. Obviously, harder badges to obtain are worth more points, and those that are easy, less points. This point ranking system will allow for ranking to take place as imagined. The amount of points you have as a fraction of the total will also determine the "rank" pip that you will see, accompanied by the text for the rank. Those ranks will be based off of the US army ranks and will add another layered image to the whole.
*Update* The homepage now displays a link to show the top 50 badge collectors. You can click the following link to view them: Top 50
*Update* Now when you click your own (or anyone's signature link) you will be able to see all the badges they have, if you click view total progress, you will be able to see all the badges they have and all the badges they don't have by location. This will be handy to track your own progress!
What it is going to do:
The last thing I'd like to do is make a few different backgrounds to choose from for the image, as well as allow custom background images and colors.
How you can help
if you have any ideas or suggestions, please spit 'em out!
You can also "sport" the image in your sig/profile while its still in beta! In other words, try it and report bugs/errors to me.
How to use it
You can view the FAQ in our guild forums here. If you have a question please feel free to ask there!~
In order for my application to know what badges you have you must be using the new profile system and have the badges showing there. Once you have them showing on your profile, all you need is your Gaia userID (which you can get by clicking on your avatar in any forum you have posted in, it will be the numbers at the end of the URL of your profile page).
Once you have
a) badges showing on your "current" profile (classic will not work)
b) your gaia UserID handy
head on over to this URL: http://zomgbadges.co.cc/ and type it in the little box and click gimme! You will then see your custom siggy image, BBCode and HTML code and all the badges you have received.
How do I find my Gaia UserID?
There are several ways to go about doing this. You can hover your mouse over "My Gaia" and click profile like so:
Alternatively you can click your avatar in any thread you have posted in to view your profile URL with the userID in it.
And once you have clicked to view your profile by either method, you will be able to see your userID in the URL, like so:
