The footer in question: [ ] (2nd pic)
anyways: I have started this topic rather to get a contest - of sorts - started on how such footer might look like. just so you know: i'm not really into "banner-ing"; but this would be a great way for me to repay my gratitude to FRF for hosting my tables here... for free no less
![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
things to consider:
- size: limit both in image_size as in 'fysical' size ( I'm planning to bring that back to half its height in due course)
- color-ing: to get me going, I just did a copy/paste/photoshop-ing of FRF's website header;
- in case of a "proprietary" banner - which will probably apply to most authors - should one also need to add some reference to FRF. (in this regard, ignore what I've said above btw)
- clickable or not: not a great fan of this. I would rather go for a "context popup", which would then allow you to link directly to (example given) your post here @FRF (for reasons of 'how to use'; where is that àçé"!' password?; andwhatnot...)
- other...
ps: my initial plan was NOT to get such a footer, but adding a bckgrnd image to the addresslist (see CEF topic). feel free to join there.
ps2: the code currently takes the image from the table itself (which makes it an easy way to distribute). however: one can also use the 'LoadFromFile' method, to get it from disk (which might be more preferable for addresslist images; which I expect to be (far) more sizeable). In that case, one only uploads the image once, while posting updated CE tables in due time...
ps3: as most of you know, our tables are also offered on other websites. and not all will either refer to the original author, or to FRF (if at all). this feature will definitely "tell" gamers about its origin...
