Did you download it in full? Also you probably need WinRar to unzip it, just google it cuz its free and fast.

Lirina said:


I'm sorry the unziping probably wasn't the problem as I thought first since I have the files, but I can't open any of them.

Hahaido said:
Now troubles are solved! Download and enjoy! But remember if your progress is freezes while you extracting CSS it means that your anime/manga titles doesn't present in the database and downloaded from the Internet that may take some time

Is the AnimeBase.dat not updated?

Sudenri said:
With reload, do you mean: Just turn it on again? Becaus I did, and some covers still won't show.
I even tried redownloading.

Sudenri said:
Yeah, Tried redownloading, didnt work.

Can anyone explain me how the "Update CSS" exactly work? Because I used this function to update my CSS. But wouldn't I need to re-upload the .css file to dropbox, which gets a new link. And which I still have to re-update my List Style?

Youjinbou said:


I never used "Update CSS", but I dont think you need to re-update your list style. When i made a change on my list and re-uploaded the .css to dropbox, it had the same link.

Shishio-kun said:
Is there a way to use this to generate the top 5000 titles on this or something similar, or to generate the entire database?

Hahaido said:

When you're using "Update CSS" function the generated CSS code is adding at the bottom of your CSS designs code on MAL server and you can see it at the Advanced Style CSS Editor. You don't need to update .css file on Dropbox or else. You don't need a separate .css file at all.

I see. So only clicking the Update CSS is enough (+ password etc)

Sudenri said:
Question: Is the Database not up to date? Because the generator doesn't show a cover for "Accel World EX".

Hahaido said:

Perhaps. Because new titles comes every day and database updating takes a lot of time. I'll update it soon!

dperolio said:
This doesn't work for me. :(

Shishio-kun said:


Maybe cuz your list is set to private. Undo that and try again.

dperolio said:


Hey, I'm not that stupid. D:

I set my list to public and it ran okay. But when it finished, I couldn't see any CSS or export anything.

@import url(http://dl.dropbox.com/u/78192465/MyAnimeList/CSS/AnimeBase_more.css);

generate codes for :before and :after CSS
generate CSS for titles that doesn't counted in stats

#list_surround table:nth-of-type(n+4) tbody:hover .animetitle{
display: block;
position: fixed;
left: 0px;
top: 10px;
width: 200px;
height: 300px;
}

Hahaido said:
I fixed the app. But if you will use it many times at once I can't guarantee that it will work

Hahaido said:
Yes, I updated the link. Strange, the app worked but not at the moment. I'll check it again

Is it safe?? I tried downloading Hahaido's covers generator but my avast antivirus keeps blocking the download, saying that a suspicious item has been detected. :(

Hahaido said:
100% worked!

Shishio-kun said:
Yeah its safe. I use Avast too and scanned the folder myself to show its safe, pic here:

Its coming up suspicious because its a "false positive", files that are self-extracting (or something like that) tend to get these warnings. I sent Avast a report that this particular file was mistaken as unsafe since they give u that option.

To download and use this file you may need to disable the Avast add-on and Shield Control for 10 minutes. For the shield controls, just right click the icon on your toolbar.
