Only improvements for Hinatachan that would be extremely useful is more fonts?

I mean, only so many people want fancy sigs like saka and iri... and both of them seem really happy to help teach others. :) (not to mean that they are the only two who are able to do fancy things with php, just the two I've noticed the most)

edit: oh yeah, I am esswhy back in my old account.

about the hinatachan tag at the bottom.


There are a couple of options for night mal/etc.


You could always have the "sig by hinata.taigaforums.com" appear twice. Once in black (or w/e shade night MAL is) and once in white.

so like:



or this:



(or w/e shade it is, can be fixed for actual official use.. though I accidentally cut off the bottom on this one)

(min length on this one is 270.. if the user wants smaller they can stick with the white strip at the bottom)

And depending on what the user wants they can swap what side the white and black are on.. or turn off the transparent bg and just have the same white strip at the bottom with a black hinata.taigaforums.com.... They could also use a few select fonts (the size would already be picked so that people couldn't make it look bad).

Or you could always offer a few select colours that are visable on night/dark MAL and normal MAL.


There is also the option of users submitting/requesting the placement of the hinatachan link in a more integrated but visible way. I wouldn't mind modding that/approving things.


Though all of this takes coding and such (at least this isn't xinil's project) so it all depends on what you guys want.

it makes much more sense to just use a glow:


with black bg:


...and I don't want to hear that you can't do that in perl, because you should be copying the pre-made image onto it anyway, not rendering the text every time.

as sy suggested, there are ways to watermark it or otherwise put it onto the actual sig in a visible way without intruding on the signature itself. If you put a translucent version of it with a thick bevel (so it has both white and black) then there is no way to hide it, though it might become slightly difficult to read on noisy sigs. I think just extending it as you're doing is probably the best solution.

I thought of glow, but then you need the text even smaller to fit the glow and it does seem a little crowded. Also I think glow is extremely ugly.

But putting it in black and then white isn't perfect either. Maybe you could give people an option. Options are good. Though when I suggested it, I meant leave it at the bottom, not place it somewhere in the sig. :X

as I said, there is always also allowing users to pick certain colours:
ie.
(I just kinda picked a random colour, but there are many options for colours)


screen cap in night mal (it is easier to read when you actually have night MAL turned on):

probably best to keep it simple, though I can understand your reasoning.

a one pixel stroke would work very well too...

a 1px stroke definitely looks the best. i sent that to nathan but he has other things on his mind atm so it should get taken care of at some point. thanks guys!

i decided that leaving it somewhat undesirable (unchangeable font, color, etc) is good since the reason nathan decided to make hinatachan was to advertise taigaforum, and since the tag gets removed if people purchase it...

Okay, that makes sense. I just figured a better font would be more readable (though I need glasses) and would advertise better. But when you say that I definitely thing no colour + whatever poo font is a good idea then. :)

currently updating the tag, so excuse any ugliness.
tag is updated! if it looks goofy to you, refresh a few times and it should fully update.

i also added a donate button to the hinatachan page so that if one donates (a reasonable amount), the tag can be removed.

So I have made my first signature today, I was a little slow with this program.
So I'm quite happy with the way it turned out~

Does the signature not understand that you read manga not watch it?

in the rss feed that mal provides, manga are watched.... so unless there is logic to replace all the statuses, then they will stay that way. I replaced them in my custom scripts.

Don't feel bad, I had that moment when I started working on it too. It is a little bit of a patience activity but it does eventually work out.

It is all about how many pixels long you want it to be.

It is free, although if you pay you do not have to have the tag on that says where it came from. If it does not bother you then yes it is free.
