RFC: Public Service Offering -- xivsigs

[Archpoet]

This is great, I was looking for a new one to use. My only problem is that I had looked at it a few days ago and it brought up a headshot I didn't like so i was waiting for it to reset. It hasn't done that yet...Any help?

Ah, good eye.
I thought the lodestone used avatars in a generic way, and it turns out that is not the case.
In order to generate the sigs we have to cache all the images used locally so as to not taint the canvas.
So my mis-assumption about avatars is what caused the inifini-cache to happen there, (what you described.)

I have purged it, and so you should be good to regen it with your latest loodestone avatar.
I'll look at purging those at whatever frequency they update on the lodestone side.
*goes and googles it*

Thanks a lot for noticing this! <3

Nice work.

Thanks look cool. Although any chance that in the future we could get the fonts in black esp for the class/job parts?

I used to use the other signature generator, I liked it very much, and I paid to keep it updated, then the website disappeared. So that left me with no signature, and I ended up making my own. I agree with one of the previous posters, to put jobs instead of classes, and to be able to select which jobs we play, to show which jobs we're playing in the signature, instead of just showing every classes. It could leave some space for other things. Your signatures look nice so far and look better than the other signature generators I've seen.

Whoa!

Are you sure you want to go there?

https://xivsigs.net/ may be risky to visit.

 

Why are you seeing this?

When we visited this site, we found it exhibited one or more risky behaviors.

This is what I got when I tried to visit your site :/

Yes, definitely.

Many thanks for the feedback on this. <3

Yikes. That's scary looking.
So, google doesn't really explain it very well-- but i found some wonky-ish info here: http://www.simplemachines.org/commun...topic=515898.0
Doesn't help terribly much. Sorry about that.

From a development standpoint, the only risky-ish behavior is that we pull HTTP images down locally and load them into HTTPS (which did nick the HTTPS a couple of times there, during testing.) I could see AV software complaining about it.

If I turned off HTTPS you might not get that warning, but i'd prefer to leave it on (as a generalization.)
I guess my best atm is let's wait for the SiteAdvisor gods to rescan it haha.

Thanks for letting me know about this! <3

As long as there isn't anything sensitive, I think the ssl can be left out, it also helps proxies and caches, as long as ssl content cannot be proxied/cached unless on some particular configuration made to peek in your ssl stuff.
