A sig that changes depending on whether you're on the fora or not!

Hi everyone, I've just finished a little API which lets you choose any two images online and then displays one or the other depending on whether you are online or not! This could let users create a signature that changes depending on whether or not they're on!

For example, two ordinary images:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22935223/exampleOnline.BMP
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22935223/exampleOffline.BMP

Now I use my API like so:

http://blocks.scratchr.org/libstatus.php?user=sparks&online=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22935223/exampleOnline.BMP&offline=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22935223/exampleOffline.BMP
^This image will change depending on whether I am online or not!

replace the word 'user' with your user name, the word 'onlineImage' with your first image link and the word 'offlineImage' with your second image link in the code below to do this yourself!

Code:

[img]http://blocks.scratchr.org/libstatus.php?user=sparks&online=onlineImage&offline=offlineImage[/img]

For full documentation on what else this API can do, look here

I'm always on the forums, but not the fora.

What about this one:
http://scratch.mit.edu/redirect/url?link=http://blocks.scratchr.org/libstatus.php?user=sparks&online=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22935223/sig.png&offline=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22935223/sig1.png

EDIT: oh, I was hoping that the Scratch redirect added to the beginning would let you see it but it seems to stop the sig working...

Hmmm.... maybe your computer is blocking dropbox images then. That's a first for me, nothing usually blocks them  tongue  Thanks for letting me know, I might use weebly!

Read this page and the comments: http://painintheenglish.com/case/627. Fora and forums are both correct. I used to say forums until bharvey, a teacher at Berkeley chastised me!

Isn't this sort of nit-picking rather than being on-topic?

Re: A sig that changes depending on whether you're on the fora or not!

I'm working on an addon which will hopefully be available soon that lets your sig show your newest projects. Please +1 if you think it's worth me adding that.

Fora is forums in proper English.

Sparks, you should change what it says "change "user" to your user name" to "change "sparks" to your username"  tongue

I'm using it!  big_smile

And yeah, you know I think you should add the projects thing.  big_smile

I have something similar in the sig.

Retired from Scratch, but just the language itself. Not the forums.
