Character profile

Are you working on something that we can download to use on our websites with the characer profiles on here? Sorry if that question didnt make sense but I am tired and about ready to hit the sack.

What kind of feature(s) would you like to see?

Maybe a copy and paste CSS file to include the character profile. Just a thought

Of course it would be just a snapshot and would not update... hm...

I think it would be pretty easy to do something dynamic. Basically a script that pulled the information from the database just like the character profiles on the site do. However, it's an additional strain on the servers, I'd think. Maybe not.

Since the servers are just now more reliable and can process updates every 4 hours, I'd hate to see something to kill them. I think it's an awesome idea, but with the ability to customize our profiles coming soon, it's not as big of a concern for me. I do wish that I could have the profile without all the ads though. Eh, gotta pay for all this somehow.

I'm going to be redoing my web pages soon (I lost them in a custody battle with the ex-fiance... long story), and I'd like to be able to include my WoW information on my personal site. For now, I'll just use a link to my profile on the site.

I am thinking about having the option of having a 'raw' display on character profiles that will only show your profile and nothing else (ie, no ads, no other WR links, etc, just your profile)

That question did come out wrong lol. After some sleep what I meant to say is I am looking for something simular to the guild profiles, but for characters showing their equipment and such.

Maybe there can be an option where you submit a screenshot of what your character looks like? Make size parameters on it, and of course it would have to be manually edited down to size and uploaded, but it would make things spiffy for sure. Just set it up so the picture is uploaded inside the "box" of your equip, just like the character panel in the game itself.

Just a thought. =)

Yikes, that's a lot of work each time you change an item.

Would be spiffy though, but I know I don't want to take a screenshot every time I get a new item.

Meh, I'm not too concerned about it.. Only takes about a minute of your time. Plus, it'd be optional =]

But yeah, 'tis just a suggestion.

I don't mind ads but I do, however, mind the pop ups (mostly at work

) You do what you gotta do. I also do occasionally click on a couple to help the website out because I know that having 2 dedicated servers to provide the data for no cost does cost you money

You should at a maximum see 2 pops per day. I am very close to being able to turn these off however.
