About

StackImage 2 is the successor to StackImage - but it is anything but an incremental update. StackImage 2 allows you to design your very own unique custom flair from scratch. Just how customizable is StackImage 2? Well, you can...

  • Set the size of the flair (both width and height)
  • Set the background-color and border color as well as the width of the border
  • Add any item from your profile to your flair (except 'about me')
  • Set the font, font style, size, and color of each item
  • Set the size of your Gravatar and the site icon
  • Preview the flair with your own account information

To design your flair, simply use the interactive tool to drag-and-drop the components you want onto your flair. You can then move the items around and resize them.

Once you're done, just click 'save' and decide between pre-generated HTML code and a JPG image that you can embed on forums / etc. Both will stay up to date with your account.

Note: this tool is still under development, so please feel free to post any bugs you find or features you'd like to see. Keep your eyes peeled for new features.

  • @jme: Well... the client side portion of the application is obviously not closed source - you can see how the editor works and the calls to the server that it makes. I am considering releasing the source code for the image-generating portion of the source code.

  • @austinbv: The login / password is required so that StackImage 2 can store the information about the flair you create. Otherwise it would need to be passed as a query string parameter... which is unfeasible.

  • SE sites don't require passwords and allow using other authentication systems. It'd be nice if this service followed suit.

  • @jamesdlin: I am currently in the process of unifying the accounts on all of my web applications, so at least there will only be a single name / password to remember. The reason I need authentication is because the tool needs to store a lot of information for each flair instance - more than I could fit in the query string of a URL. Therefore, to facilitate the storage and to eventually (though not yet implemented) allow for editing instances, authentication is required.

    @GeorgeEdison Sure, but it'd be nice if you didn't require password-based authentication and instead allowed using, say, OpenID or Google.

    @jamesdlin: Ah, I get it. Well, depending on how things go, that may end up being a possibility.
