    • digg0t, on 10/12/2007, -7/+4Is this some nigerian scam?
  • k4st, on 10/12/2007, -3/+18Nice use of the Digg XMLRPC API.
  • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -8/+8If you use WordPress, and would like to show your Digg profile on your blog, using HTML, you can use this plugin -> http://www.headzoo.com/diggbadge
    • Voldemint, on 10/12/2007, -10/+2Cool I'll check that out headzoo, cheers. EDIT- Damn, it's only for Wordpress.org right? Not Wordpress.com. Shame :(

      Also, the Digg Sig generator is awesome.
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Sorry, it's only for your own hosted copy of WP.. i.e. where you have control over which plugins are installed.
  • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+28We did not use the XMLRPC API.... the XMLRPC API uses my API =p
    • dnthomps, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10This is a great build. Thank you very much. How are you going to afford to keep it up though? No ads. No linkback, other than a img based, grayscale url in the GIF. Put up a Donate link. I along with others who 'truely' appreciate this will contribute.

      Thank you again.

      P.S. Let me know if you need some webspace. We may be able to work something out where we can use some of my space... maybe host the images on another(multiple) site if needed. Just a thought.
  • RatTrap, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2Nice i like.
  • xlRainlx, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1cool.
  • anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13What's the number of diggs for in the signature? Am I missing something? How do I digg a profile?
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10i don't know if I'm going to make that an actual feature, right now its just a random number.
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3-weird digg like submitted my comment but it didn't show up-

      edit: well nnvm -_-

      I dint know if i will actually include that feature just yet.... maybe in the future "if" the site moves along well.
    • scoot87, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14Koncept, you should make it like a number of Diggs for the user's comments if thats even possible. Just an idea.
    • JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4you should make it either the total number of dugg stories or the number of submitted stories that made it to the homepage (user's choice).

      another stat i'd like to see is a friend count.


      also.. i'm pretty sure the header bar font is not the real digg font. (maybe should be FFF Forward)
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6FFF Forward was tried. That font only looks good when the only letters you're using are D I and G. Full words didn't look that great.
    • seanthebond, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8@JamesWilson

      It would be a REALLY bad idea putting a friends count on there. Because then people would just go around adding a crap load of people like they do now. You would just be spammed by friends invites.
    • pollardito, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2number of dugg stories is just as bad for the same reason
    • UNL1M1T3D, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I really like the idea of using dugg comments, but not sure if that is possible.
    • JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2"It would be a REALLY bad idea putting a friends count on there. Because then people would just go around adding a crap load of people like they do now."

      So..what would be the difference?

      "You would just be spammed by friends invites."

      Digg doesn't send friend invites.
  • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10If anyone wants to use the diggsig XML-RPC API for your own projects, you can find out about it here -> http://www.480x.com/2006/08/21/digg-user-profile-xml-rpc-api/
  • titlesaysitall, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5It says i've only Dugg 2 stories. -_-
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1That is a bug we are trying to fix asap....but atm we don't see any reason for it to be breaking like that.... gives a day or so to work out all the kinks.
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4should work now... stupid me >_
    • MikeJo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It works great for me. Awesome job ^^
  • coldshuts, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Great job, it's very user-friendly, I buy it!
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1then the quality the quality of the avatar drops....
  • JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4picture is cut off.
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8by 10px only.... i couldnt find anywhere else to put it -_-
    • JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6make the header bar larger or let the pic overflow out of the box.
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2trust me it looks very wierd....
    • PathDaemon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Or shrink the picture slightly...
    • BuddhaChu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Agreed...use ImageMagick or GD to resize the profile photo to be the same size as the header bar.
  • DarthPilatus, on 10/12/2007, -16/+2*****
  • JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -7/+5information is cached after first generation.

    after viewing my profile on diggsig i changed my city, refreshed my diggsig (regenerated it) and it did not change.

    I understand why this is done, but when (if ever) is the information re-retrieved?
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14Every 10 minutes.
    • JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -13/+2fast reply. thanks. everyone may bury my post now.
  • mr_cheese28, on 11/12/2007, -3/+8this worked great for Myspace.
    • Ollin, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8and a great way to spread the news of Digg through myspace too because most people will be like.....? *click* :P
    • robertgoodwin, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Added to my MySpace site, too. Very nice.
    • aoe2bug, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5@Ollin
      God i hope not...
  • ExitiumEx, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1neat
  • Celeron, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4the digg me part needs to be removed.
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1what should it say? "digg it"?
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11We'll have different templates you can choose from in a couple days. You can select a template without the digg me part.
  • biff198, on 10/12/2007, -21/+1Awesome. Digg has been coming up with some good stuff lately.
  • aidanr, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1very cool, i think you should drop the "digg me" bit one the left and pull the text over to the left, or even just swap the position of the digg me but and the main text to make it look more uniform, also fixing the picture would be nice
  • ohgr, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3Finally I can put my diggs on Myspace.
  • hmemcpy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Hey! The sig looks great! :) Thanks.

    Small request though: could you perhaps output the signature as png?
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11we had that at first but the png file size will hurt our servers -_-
    • hmemcpy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Bah, must reply to myself :)

      But I was under the impression that png provides 10-25 percent better compression than gif... Perhaps I'm mistaking...
  • samec, on 10/12/2007, -17/+0http://www.aroup.com/en/?p=56
  • hmemcpy, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Cool :)
    Digg Signature Creator for my personal internet!
  • smnash, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0Yes. Looks great indeed. Now where can I put it?
  • aractor, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2That is really awesome, I can think of all sorts of places to use that.

    Also, instead the "digg me" thing that doesn't really do anything. Perhaps that could be used to display number of submitted stories that made the front page?
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4In a couple days we'll release different templates that you can choose from. Digg signatures of different sizes, different looks, etc.
    • aractor, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Awesome, I look forward to it
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I like that idea. It would have to wait about a day, I'm redoing the API tomorrow to support more features. You guys wait and see, if the server holds up, and we get a nice fan base, we will provide you guys with tons more unique features. This is just merely a test.
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2We tried to put up 1 google ad but it wont kick in..... may put a donate button up soon...
  • Vandelay797, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14And it shall be called diggnature
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2i like it ^_^
    • drspin, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5How about Sigg? Siggnature?
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2i thought of that to but I'm dead broke and can barely afford the server, yet another domain -_-.
    • loureiro97, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2you have no need to be broke now. Just put up some ads and donate buttons (these only to support the site).
      I'm sure that being on the frontpage will get you tons of hits. And if kevin and alex mention this on diggnation you'll get even more.
  • FetalSage, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11Looks good and all, but 1: Don't like the cut-off avatar, and 2: Use PNG, looks way better than GIF and has a good enough compression.

    I did a quick layout:

    http://07designs.com/images/diggsig.jpg
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Looks good man. Stay tuned for your choice of templates.
    • FetalSage, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3Thank you. If you need more designs, contact me and I'll see what I can do.
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5You can drop me a line using my site's contact form -> http://www.headzoo.com/contact Then I'll have your email address.
    • Koncept, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Hmm if I'm not mistaken the png version was ~15kb and the gif is ~1200bytes

      I like your design idea. We will have a way for users to submit designs, soon.
    • FetalSage, on 10/12/2007, -6/+3Hehe, got bored:

      http://07designs.com/images/diggsig2.jpg

      Just protecting the goods (watermark) ;)
    • imdeanlabouty, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Instead of making the avatar hang off, why not replace the digg counter on the left with the avatar and username? It's just a random number anyway, right?
  • spadin, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Already added the image to my myspace. (gasp!)

    You guys have done some great work. If you had a wishlist, mine would be that you would add a 'last commented on' section. I actually comment way more than I digg. I've been on digg for 1.5 years and have only dugg 106 stories, including yours.
  • yiping, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1this is very cool!
  • fatsobob, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12A Diggnature.
    See what I did there?
  • adminmatt, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1i don't know if this is going to be in your guy's templates, but it would be great for a vertically stacked graphic that you can put in a sidebar.


    wicked awesome job
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Yeah, we're looking to do various dimensions, layouts, and styles. Stay tuned!
  • artsky, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1very nice!
  • leedsrobbie, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0nice
  • edmarriner, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1great, been waiting for somthing like this
  • tizz66, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Ah brilliant, I was looking for something similar to this the other day. The only problem is it is bigger than many forums allow for a signature, would it be possible to have a 'mini' version that's about half the size?

    Great stuff!
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Yeah, we'll be letting people choose from a range of templates. Some of them will be smaller.
  • SamiJam, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1Pretty much the same as DiggCard.
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Except Digg Card is HTML inside an iframe that can't be used on a lot of sites, and this is an image that can be used on any site. So really, it's nothing like Digg Card.
  • GTPBearSuit, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1If the "Digg Me" thing is useless, and the image gets cut off, couldn't you just move the image where the "digg me" thing is?
  • JamesSilvester, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Cool tool.
  • stephen445, on 10/12/2007, -7/+0Nice use of CSS, I have been waiting for something like this. :)
  • Slungsolow, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3It's cool, but the useless "digg me" and the half image make me say it needs at least another version. Dugg with some reservations.
  • rand21althor, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2Cool find!
  • estacado, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5Currently there are 3 similar sites:
    http://diggsig.com/
    http://diggcard.com/
    http://www.headzoo.com/diggbadge
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Each one does something a little different which makes each useful.

      Diggsig - Gives your Digg profile as a GIF image that can be used on any site.
      Digg Card - Gives your Digg profile using HTML (although it uses an iframe).
      Digg Badge - A WordPress plugin that generates the profile as HTML on your blog. You have full control over layout and editing the CSS.
  • nizhongmin, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Great site.
  • Phocion55, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Slick! I dunno if this is a bug, but the Digg Me to the left has been fluxuating back and forth from 926 to 263 randomly throughout the morning. Anyone else experience this?
    • headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5The number is randomly generated, and is really just there for looks.
    • Phocion55, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2You could prolly cut that out and save some width if it's just a random number and holds no meaning.
  • totoholic, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I like it. Very cool!
  • xorian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Already using it on some forums! Nice website.
  • samec, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0http://www.aroup.com/en/?p=56
  • DanAtkinson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I wish there was an 'exume' feature for Digg where I can digg pages that I accidentally buried.

    I buried this one by accident, and now I can't digg it.

    Excellent stuff!
  • ToRoE, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Excellent, this is exactly what Digg Card should have been. Thanks!

    Two comments:
    1. can you capture user name capitalization? (ie. 'ToRoE', instead of the current 'toroe'.)

    2. and this has nothing to do with you, but what is the Digg rank. I could not find an explanation of what it is, or how it is earned? anyone? I dont't have one... :^(


  • Eccohawk, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1..........................
  • Ninjamonk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2cool work guys, I will drop the image version of diggcard as you have done such a fine job.

    version 2 of diggcard will be here at the weekend and will have no iframe for you :p
