Xfire...

Post by Adreniline »

I know you have the "email" and "Messenger" buttons that allow people to have their contact info integrated into their profile, but I was wondering, would it be possible to add an Xfire contact button?

It would be easier than trying to dig around for people's Xfires.

If you can't make it in addition to the others, could you replace the ICQ contact info and buttons with Xfire ones? I could make the button if you need me to...

Just a thought....

Hey that's a good idea Adreniline! And have the button link directly to their Xfire profile?

I think it's a good idea.

But I think Adreniline's right. You should replace the Image button because more people use the Image button.

I use www! www is good, I've gotten a few hundred visitors from it.

ICQ/or AIM are quite useless.

and for the Xfire button if you add one I wonder if the xfire commands will work for it?

That's a great idea! :P Too bad I don't have Xfire though :roll: I think we should get rid of ICQ but not AIM, more people use AIM but not ICQ :?

I have ICQ, but I can never remember my dang Id number, so it is a hassle. I do use AIM, but I prefer MSN and XFire. I'm inclined to agree ICQ should go bye-bye.

you prefer Xfire and MSN? -_-'

if you then actually WERE ON it would help... :roll:

Can't you just add another? I remember this has been discussed a few times over the past 2 years, but I'd wonder if we'll actually GET a Xfire button now? :wink:

No, its for the replacement.

Guru still needs a code to get the xfire button to work.

PS:
Image
or
Image


EDIT:

heres a code for it, it needs to be a link to work.

Code: Select all

xfire:add_friend?user=<xfire username>
example, just copy and paste it into your address bar and it will send an inventation to me.

xfire:add_friend?user=femalepenguin

All guru needs to do is somehow get that code to replace the icq code xD[/b]

I made one too. Personally, I don't think it's as good as Penguin's, but...
And, yes, I know the white is still there, but my Corel PhotoPaint is broken right now, and so I had to use Paint. No transparency :?
