    Just an idea here ruggie , don't feel pressured to take it (if I had my way you'd keep your current one:p ) and as ever its open to any modifications...

    {give it a mo , imageshack is slow}
    {btw ... In doing that I realised something , photoshop is an incredibly stupid program}

    Hey tba , I noticed you have some sort of script running that returns a different image in your sig every time the page loads. How did you do this , I have been looking for something like that for ages? (or have you just been randomly changing your sig the last few minutes? :) )


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,111 ✭✭✭tba


    Yep Its a script, you need a web host that supports hotlinking and PHP. I have my own websapce

    Create a folder that you put all your images into, then make a file called "index.php" with this code
    <?php
    /*
        By Matt Mullenweg > http://photomatt.net
        Inspired by Dan Benjamin > http://hiveware.com/imagerotator.php
        Latest version always at:
        http://photomatt.net/scripts/randomimage
    */
    
    // Make this the relative path to the images, like "../img" or "random/images/".
    // If the images are in the same directory, leave it blank.
    $folder = '';
    
    // Space seperated list of extensions, you probably won't have to change this.
    $exts = 'jpg jpeg png gif';
    
    $files = array(); $i = -1; // Initialize some variables
    if ('' == $folder) $folder = './';
    
    $handle = opendir($folder);
    $exts = explode(' ', $exts);
    while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) {
        foreach($exts as $ext) { // for each extension check the extension
            if (preg_match('/\.'.$ext.'$/i', $file, $test)) { // faster than ereg, case insensitive
                $files[] = $file; // it's good
                ++$i;
                }
            }
        }
    closedir($handle); // We're not using it anymore
    mt_srand((double)microtime()*1000000); // seed for PHP < 4.2
    $rand = mt_rand(0, $i); // $i was incremented as we went along
    
    header('Location: '.$folder.$files[$rand]); // Voila!
    ?>
    

    Then link to index.php as your sig and it will be random every time.

    Cheers man thats awesome , if only rep ++.

    I hadn't much ideas, this one is a bit weird. Don't know if you'll like it anyway, see below.

    paconnors1tc4.jpg

    just started participating in the photoshop threads the other day, came up with these while i was messing around last night
    There a bit basic:o but they could be worked on


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,958 ✭✭✭✭RuggieBear


    Awesome guys. thanks.

    now to try and do that tba thingie!:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,111 ✭✭✭tba


    If you can get a webhost that allows hotlinking and allows you to put all your images into a single place ie boards members space style then you should be able to host the php file in a different location.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,254 ✭✭✭Citizen_Erased


    Could you get a modified one that pointed to urls rather than files? I don't know jack about this sorta thing tbh but surely its possible.

    Btw boards members space has been down for a while , unless yous subscribers still have it.

    //edit Armchairninja , the sigs look real stylish but the challenge with sig making on boards is the sig rules . It has to be within a max size of 300 pixels wide and 125 pixels tall. Usually though a simple bit of croping solves this

    C_E cheers for that, i thought that there might have been some sort of limit on it, il redo them later then to that size

    Ruggie

    If you want a tba style shuffler just post this into your sig without the two *

    [*IMG]http://www.uzzisoft.com/randomsigscript/ruggie.jpeg[*/IMG]

    Refresh it a few times...
    ruggie.jpeg

    Done care of www.uzzisoft.com , they will make a shuffler like that for free for you but the images you upload have to be less than 32kb (not a problem if you are loyal to the boards sig rules ;) )

    Ps Ruggie I can PM you the login details for that one if you want to add images to it yourself later on


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,641 ✭✭✭paconnors


    thanks ruu

    Hiya lads...

    Any chance of someone knocking up a couple of sig pics for the new Wexford Forum?

    I'd do it myself buy my editing abilities don't extend beyond MS Paint!

    Cheers,

    Iain

    You're welcome. Good luck with the forum.:)

    I'm back to pester you again, good people...

    We now have a new Hobby Radio Forum, (feel free to drop by), and require some snazzy self promoting sig image to get the numbers up.

    Any contributions, as always, very gratefully received, along a Radio Amateur/CB scanner type theme, with the usual text addition, and maybe a Boardsie logo, (not asking for much I know:D)

    Googling transceivers throws up a host of images, something like the one detailed in the link maybe?

    http://images.tentec.com/radio/products/516/516front.jpg

    Thanks in advance,

    Roundy.
