I definitely like having the name being white instead of the asterisk. This is such a great feature, someone please immortalize this in the wiki.

Requesting my displayname gets hacked to http://spcows.ae2t.net/emot10bux.gif.

It's only fitting.

http://spcows.ae2t.net/emot10bux.gif to mods EVERYWHERE

Did you change it back to asterisks or have you just not edited the display options into the Lite Set?

Also, while we got a thread where shit is happening, can you make it so clicking the avatar links to the user's profile? I always liked that feature...

I've moved the display options into your option settings instead of profile settings.

I'll get to work on the avatar link.

FatsDomino Jul 8, 2006 11:13 AM

Awesome! The avatar link works now. =)

Gonna have to think of something cool for an image. Awesome job, blah!

Solis Jul 8, 2006 11:33 AM

Looks like it's working pretty well. I prefer differently colored usernames instead of an asterix (white wasn't bad, maybe a slight tint of another color), but so far I like it. Good job person that came up with the idea and person that implimented it into the site (yeah, you have names, but you know who you are).

One advantage to displaying custom names in a differerent color would that it would allow one extra character for the name. The asterisk is occupying a space as it stands.

FatsDomino Jul 8, 2006 11:37 AM

Yeah, that would be nice to have the extra space back. It would be nice if you could put in your own custom color that you'd like it to display in.

Freelance Jul 8, 2006 11:58 AM

I have no desire to change my username except for theme weeks, but cool idea nonetheless.

....Oh, I forgot I -am- participating in a theme week! Okay, now to try out this feature.

Update: I don't see my name changed...

Another update: Oh...I figured it out...

Ahahahahahaha. BEST GIF NAME EVER. Holy crap, that's awesome.

FatsDomino Jul 8, 2006 01:02 PM

I've figure'd out that 19 pixels high is the limit for not breaking height.

Now to figure out width. =)

Yeah.. anything except the standard color would allow people to know you had a custom name. I think it would be a good idea if users were somehow prevented from using the color for standard usernames.

FatsDomino Jul 8, 2006 01:05 PM

Hey, it's their choice. If I want all custom names to be magenta then they'll be magenta. If you want it the background color than hey that's your choice. If you complain it sucks than you just pick another color. Not a big deal. *shrug*

Double Post:
Okay I've figured out the dimension limit. 131x19

I will hopefully be able to pull some fun stuff in that amount of space. =)

Solis Jul 8, 2006 02:21 PM

So you'd be able to put images into your custom title as well? Sounds cool...so...I could for example use this for the theme week? :)

Or is this going to stay a staff-only feature?

Rydia Jul 8, 2006 02:47 PM

I stretched the tables with one image I tried to use. I think I'll stick with this custom image for now.

Good to know the size limit though.

Summonmaster Jul 8, 2006 02:59 PM

Well done! Lucky mods with their cute images :S
Now I can parade around as ValkyrieProfile and only the laziest that can't bother to click will complain >=)

Putting pictures in your name is staff only, yeah.

Wow, I thought having names displayed in marquee would be cool, but after only 5 minutes it's starting to get annoying.

ramoth Jul 8, 2006 05:08 PM

I wish the color wasn't white, it's hard to differentiate it from blue sometimes.

Other than that, *thumbs up*.

wvlfpvp Jul 8, 2006 05:35 PM

I like how mo0 is the vonage lady, but he still has the angel from America's Got Talent.

Also. Acer rules.

Soluzar Jul 8, 2006 05:59 PM

Are the gonks planning to leave their "real" username as _____GONK indefinitely now we have this feature? I'm still confused as to who some people are...

FatsDomino Jul 8, 2006 06:06 PM

I imagine they'll ask the admins to change their official names back eventually.

I hope so. On a separate, but related note, your new username image is confusing at first, and then increasingly awesome. For a second, I thought maybe I needed sleep badly. Hey, it changed again. Now you're just fucking with us right? :D

No, seriously, how did you do that? It keeps changing everytime I refresh.

value tart Jul 8, 2006 06:26 PM

IT IS A MYSTERY OF MAGIC AND AWESOME.

Soluzar Jul 8, 2006 06:31 PM

Now I've had a chance to think, it's not too much of a mystery... the magic and awesome are still there in spades, though.
