So for the longest time I was bummed (and maybe I am just behind with the times) because we can't use HTML on here. Not a big deal, the functionality of everything was well and good enough, that it was ok! The one thing I really missed though, was my online/offline notification for my webpage. Sometimes people would lurk on my page, (because they were waiting for me to get on, or they'd want a commission and notice I was online) and it actually did me some good to have it up there!

As most people know, furcadia offers this service, (Are you Online?), but it's in HTML.

Now, I am one of those people who knows some basic code, but I thought this might be helpful for those of you who were a little lost with BB code.

Below here, you can see my current online status:


It was a really basic alteration, but one I didn't consider, when I was T.T over this months ago.
If you are interested in using this code, feel free:

Just make sure you put in your username. You can also change the images associated with the code (I made them, and I don't care if you use the ones in there). If you need help with any of this, just feel free to shoot me a message.

I hope you don't mind that I tweeted and facebooked this. I think it will help a whole lot of people!

That is really cool! I don't use furcadia as much as I would like, but this is really cool. I bet you're about to get a lot of love from furcadia users!

So, if I'm understanding this right, I copy-paste the code into my RPR profile and I put in my Furc character username?

Yes, where I wrote YOURUSERNAMEHERE, you attach your own username, no caps required.

Oh wow, no I don't mind at all! I just thought it might be helpful. I am glad if anyone finds enjoyment in using it. Furcadia provides the program, I merely transferred it to BB code

Kim, it might be something worth considering, for putting into the RPR BB code reference page.
I honestly didn't know it was going to work until I tried, but I am glad I did

Since we have sooooo many members that are not here from Furcadia, I probably won't put it in the BBCode article itself. We'd end up with an infinitely long article as people added game-specific bits and bobs.

This is true. Hmn. Good point!

I messed around with this a bit and made a few custom Furcadia character related offline/online images. I just thought I'd show them off a little here. I tried to keep them simple.

What do you all think?

Oh wow, I'm impressed. Nicely done, Contingency.

I still adore this 'online/offline' thing, and Ed, that is great!

thanks ^^

I am so glad this was useful! And very nice Ed! So swank!
