Posted By: Slopey
Subject: Dyamic AH Banners!
Date Posted: 02 Sep 2009 at 12:07am
Hi All,

You can now have a dynamic banner for AirHauler which shows your company stats. For now, it only shows the first company you've uploaded on the stats site, but I'll be modifying that shortly so you can specify which one.

There'll be more designs shortly (if you fancy making one, please do!), but for now it looks like this:



To use it, use this link as the path to the image, and replace <handle> with the Handle you've used on the AH stats pages, for example: (for forums, you need to enclose it in IMG tags)

http://www.airhauler.net/banner/banner.png-<handle>


By default, this shows the first company you registered, to select different companies under that handle, add &c=<number> where the number chooses the next company - it's zero based (so the 1st is 0, 2nd is 1 etc etc). i.e:

http://www.airhauler.net/banner/banner.png-<handle>&c=1


example: http://www.airhauler.net/banner/banner.png-Slopey&c=1


You can also choose which banner to use by adding &b=<number> to the link.

So for example (skipping the first part of the link)

banner.png-Slopey&b=1 looks like:



and banner.png-Slopey&b=2 looks like:



And if you want networth rather than pilots flying, you can use b=3 or b=4 to produce these:




More info/details/designs etc coming soon - feel free to comment on what you'd like to see on there...

Cheers,
S.

Very cool!!!!
 
I had to look at the help file and add the IMG /IMG tags to the beginning and end to make preview work...
 
I assume there is still work to do on the pilots currently flying bit...
 
Great feature!!!!

I had to look at the help file - you need to add the tags for IMG - if I give the excat example here - it will just show the image...
 
umm.. replicate this - but leave out ALL of the periods (...) and replace with your handle - drop that into the signature box on your profile in the profile mgt tab

Arrow is obsolete.
 
But I think you were looking into having more then 2 compagnies...
...or maybe I should read upon on how to remove Arrow...

Ok - to specify the company use &c=<number> on the link. The companies are zero indexed - i.e. the first one is 0, the second is 1, the third is 2.

So for example:

banner.png-Slopey&c=0   gives



banner.png=Slopey&c=1   gives



You might have to play around with the numbers till you get the company you want.

euh Slopey,
 
My banner says I have 17 pilots currently flying...
but my employee records only shows 5 pilots on Arrow Int'l...
hmm... it seems all banners say the same 17 pilots currently flying, most ever 57 on same date...

Read up - that's AH Radar pilots - not how many you are currently flying. AH doesn't know that as the processing is done on your machine.

Not really, I'll need to set it up - it's not something you could specify yourself dynamically.

However, if you have an idea of which data you'd like displayed, I'm all ears.

Hey Slopester,

I'd like to have:

Rep:
Bases:
Fleet:
Pilots:
Mode: Career

I don't want the total amount of pilots flying, that stops my banner being so personal, if you know what i mean...

Thanks,

I've added Networth, and Jobs done self/AI. Use b=3 or b=4 on the end. 3 gives you the default banner, 4 gives you the same as b=2 but with the networth. See the first post in the topic for details.

Read Slopey's first post. It will not autoupdate.

For your first company use this template: http://www.airhauler.net/banner/banner.png-<handle>&c=0

For your second company use this template: http://www.airhauler.net/banner/banner.png-<handle>&c=1

ect ect...
