Image Randomizer

Everyone gets to make one.

Example

Ok, it is powered by PHP and OOP.

It can look through directories recursively and normally, weight images and directories so certain ones come up more often, and resize by a maximum size.

My old avatar was powered by a crap one I made so I decided I'd make this, also under partial request by Igi.

I tried it and all that happen is a bunch of gray boxes appeared in the size of the avatars. :-\ I have no idea how to fix it either.

abloggedlife.info/av/avatar.php

The image shows up as the favicon in Fx, but doesn't show up for real in the browser.

Seems that your old one works better than the new.

[acoolie530]

Sorry about that. I only tested it with png's larger than 100 x 100. I also fixed a few other bugs.

Also, on the weights, it is a 1-10 rating, 10 being the most often and 1 being the least often.

[Josh]

Thanks for fixing it ACoolie. Now, one final question and I'm done bugging you, how do you place it into your avatar spot? I'm a n00b, I know. lol

[Eric]

Just plugin the URL to the page in the avatar URL

Good job ACoolie

[acoolie530]

Nah, that doesn't work. You have to use mod_rewrite. I posted some code over at PBS, I'll go get it.

For signatures, just add ?.gif to the end of the url. For avatars, set this up in your .htaccess
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^tux\.[A-z]+$ tux.php [NC,L]

So they disabled that.

Yes.. in your avatar, it has to be .jpg, .jpeg, .png, or .gif (I might have missed one)

In your signature, it can be anything.

Oh well, at least there are tons of avoidance methods .

Okay, I'm a n00b at coding, where do you place it.

I'm gussing signature.

-hides-

[acoolie530]

No, make a file named image.php and place that code in there. Add all the image directories at the bottom, then link to the image in your sig.

When you say "That code" you mean in your avatar?

[acoolie530]

Take the code from acoolie.mfhosting.com/tux.phps and place it in a file named "image.php"

Place all of the images you want in a directory named "images"

I am guessing that you do not want all of the signatures resized, so replace the line var $resize = true; with var $resize = false;

Now, at the bottom, replace the following lines
$Random -> add('images/Dir/', 3);
$Random -> add('images/OtherDir/', 5);
$Random -> add('images/avatar.gif', 1);
$Random -> add('images/avatar.png', 2);

with

$Random -> add('images/', 10);

Now, add this code into your signature and replace the url with the url to image.php

[img src="http://example.com/path/to/you/image.php"]

Okay, I gotcha. Thanks.

Hmm, http://yoursite.com/image.jpg/index.php then use [img src="http://yoursite.com/image.jpg"] no?

[acoolie530]

I think just putting it in a .php file and calling it like this would work:
[size=1][img src="http://example.com/path/to/you/image.php/image.jpg"][/size]
