Birthday Suggestion

Soulja Boy Tell 'Em · 2011-09-30 10:49:29

On a user's birthday, we change the background to a picture of their choosing (if they don't send the admins one, then their avatar will be used). This idea is only semi-stolen from the VIP-only forum.
(Also, this is my 200th post)

Yes, I disagree.

Soulja Boy Tell 'Em · 2011-09-30 13:21:42

Ya--wait, what?

Ignore him. He tries to confuse on purpose.
I like this idea, but-
1. what if the person doesn't have an avatar?
2. what if two people have the same birthday?
3. How will we know when a user's birthday is?
4. What about inactive users?
5. How will we remember to do it? Different can't be on EVERY day.
There are too many problems. For the time being, I deny it.

1. what if the person doesn't have an avatar?

You ask them to PM an admin a picture to use.

2. what if two people have the same birthday?

Splitscreen.

3. How will we know when a user's birthday is?

I seem to remember Muffin making a birthday topic....

4. What about inactive users?

They don't count.

5. How will we remember to do it? Different can't be on EVERY day.

Well, Bobithan can do it too, and we only have 156 users, maybe 15-20 active ones, nowhere NEAR every day.

Coolio · 2011-09-30 17:48:21

And what is that person isn't on that day?
You know, just because you think of something doesn't mean it's possible.
Not everybody is going to post on that topic.
I've see ndays where neither bobithan or different have been on.

If only there was an automatic thing for it

Soulja Boy Tell 'Em · 2011-09-30 18:35:32

...

And what is that person isn't on that day?

Oh well, it gets done anyway. If the picture isn't received by the day before the birthday, then it doesn't happen.

You know, just because you think of something doesn't mean it's possible.

But it is possible, and it's so easy.

Not everybody is going to post on that topic.

No post, no entry.

I've seen days where neither bobithan or different have been on.

This'll motivate them to be more active. Two pigs, one bird--er, two birds, one stone. durn Angry Birds corrupting my mind.

Patchee made the birthday thread, I made the suggestion to do this for Patchee's birthday.

And this is a horrible idea.

And what if their sig is animated?

Soulja Boy Tell 'Em · 2011-10-01 10:15:20

I said avatar, not sig. And if they have an animated avatar, I or anyone else can make it into a still. It's a really simple idea unless you WANT there to be problems.

Okay. please explain how to do a splitscreen on a background. I've never heard of someone being able to do splitscreen.
We'll have n00bs and even active members going, "WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! WHY U DO THEIR BIRTHDAY AND NOT MINE!!!! WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I QUIT!"
Do you think Bobithan and Different aren't trying to be on as much as they can? OF course they can! But it's called school. Not everything gets done immediately.

Soulja Boy Tell 'Em · 2011-10-01 18:23:00

Splitscreen:
1. Make an image (blank) in Paint or PS.
2. Paste image #1 in there.
3. Resize it so it goes from the leftmost side to the center.
4. Paste image #2 in there.
5. Repeat step 3, but replace leftmost with rightmost.
6. Save, and upload on an image sharing site like Tinypic.
7. Set it as the background.

Coolio · 2011-10-01 18:31:48

Ugh. Do you know how disgusting that would look?
Other arguments still standing.
