Give users a shiny color for EK soccer

Okay, I'll post this as a suggestion, even though I have it al coded up but I don't think I really need to share this code

We offer our users to get a shiny orange username, just a silly option for those who want to lighten up their forumname during the EK soccer 2008.

If anyone else wants this, drop a line.

You mean "football" don't you?

yeah, that one. Isn't that one called soccer in the US?

Whatever, 11 guys on one side, 11 on the other, chasing a ball. Silly, I know

..eh -- you mean to just extend html->user_color to be fully group based and have optional colors for each group?

or to go full out and have a 'group image' option too, so the board does it automagically ?

:shrug:

ehw, no

The click the link, they become orange. Nothing more, nothing less

Code

	$html = new html;

	// Check the referer
	if (!$config['DISABLE_REFERER_CHECK']) {
		$html -> check_refer();
	}

	// --------------------------------------------------
	// Let's make things orange

	$userid = $user['USER_ID'];
	$query = "
		update {$config['TABLE_PREFIX']}USER_PROFILE
		set USER_NAME_COLOR = '#F37924'
		where USER_ID = ?
	";
	$dbh -> do_placeholder_query($query,array($userid),__LINE__,__FILE__);

where's the linky poo™ ? :shrug:

Yeh... more linky poo, less shrug...

No linky pooh yet, like I said, I doubt if anyone is interested

i prefer

set USER_NAME_COLOR = '#'.substr(0,6,md5('Yarp'.rand(0,69)));

i prefer

set USER_NAME_COLOR = $backgroundcolor where yarpie=true

as we are not in it - I will not be adding this to our football forums LOL

What is EK btw?

Euro 2008 ? prolly the dutchies do Euro Kup :hihi: instead of Cup..

just a wild ass guess

EK=Europees Kampioenschap...

European Championship...

Whatever, we got about a 100 orange names now on our forums

Hope you do well in Euro 2008
