New TEAM graphics

Gizmo · #1 (**permalink**) 16th March, 2006, 01:14 AM

The graphics team has been hard at work creating new Team badges that fit in more with our layout. In addition, they are matched to the forum styles so that we can do some neat effects with them.

To enable this new functionality, I have modified and updated the TEAM tag that has been around for a while, but was rarely used.

For WCG or F@H, you would do the following:

PHP Code:

  [team=fah]ChrisRichards[/team]

[team=wcg]ChrisRichards[/team]

These will give you the badges for either the folding team or the WCG team. In addition, the folding badge will also show your current total points. When the WCG group gives us a way to calculate points for WCG, that badge will also have your score on it.

Note that the old way of doing the folding badge, like this:

PHP Code:

  [f@h]ChrisRichards[/f@h]

Will still work, and I have updated it to use the new tag also, but at some point in the future it is going to go away, and everything will be done using the TEAM tag.

The sharp eyed will notice that there's 3 sets of sigs, one for each forum skin. Gizmo has written some code which ensures the right graphic is shown automatically for each theme.

Now that's clever stuff, well done Gizmo

There were a few users who, for various reasons, were directly linking to the F@H badge instead of using the f@h tag. I have taken the liberty of modifying your signatures to work the new way, using the team tag.

Gizmo · #13 (**permalink**) 16th March, 2006, 03:18 PM

Hey Gizmo,

Mine is not clickable anymore....Did I do something wrong?

captaincurran · #15 (**permalink**) 16th March, 2006, 05:24 PM

okay, i was able to see them before, but not now

Then you have somehow got the system thinking that you are not viewing the Neutral Style.

Go into your user prefs, pick one of the styles, save it, and then set it back to default and see if that solves your problem.
