Custom signature backgrounds

So let's pretend for a second that I'm decently skilled at design/code.

Where do I find the easiest solution for implementing my own custom background to an automatically updating signature with rank information?

Edit: This custom background would be used by more than one person so I need an easy way for multiple people to use it. Thank you!

:confused:

Bump, for science!

There is no way to automatically update a signature by itself. Like you cant really code it out of nowhere...

To say it the most simple way i can think of:

You need a Database which is reading your Characterdata out of Lodestone. After that those Infos will be updated in the Signature by some simple Codes of the Database.. but not of the Signature. So you could make a MySQL Database and "mine" the Infos out of Lodestone and refresh the Infos, depending on the people which would use the Signature, after a Couple Days/Hours/Minutes. As more often you want to update it, as more memory/RAM/performance etc you will need for your Database and obviously the Server/Host you would need to do it.

Thats is most likely the easiest solution. I cant think of any other way, since you need to update your Signature by getting the Info from your Lodestone-Info. I dont think there is any way to avoid that.
