The script now also indicates if you are playing a game (picture 1), just online (picture 2), or offline (picture 3).

It will also detect if your profile is private and write a message to indicate that in to the picture.

Oh and caching time has been reduced from 20 minutes to 5 minutes! Script can still be found from http://tomppaduulis.org/imggenerator/test2.php since it’s still in beta.

Oh and one more thing! I am accepting all kinds of backgrounds the script could use, they just need to have the same dimensions as the one currently in use has and the text has to fit to exactly the same spot.

This is the image you can use as reference!<— Click!

Email the completed backgrounds to tomppaduulis@gmail.com, you’ll have your name written to the credits page once I get one made.

That’s my signature. You can make your own by going to

Now that I have made it away from my WoW addiction, I can start focusing on other interesting games. One being the pretty new Bioshock 2. After playing the original Bioshock I was really craving for more Rapture. The underwater city that was impossible to be built anywhere else was so immerse and full of little details that it really got me hooked. The interesting way to tell the story with diaries of Raptures residents and very neat storyline kept the game interesting untill the end.

I had hardly heard anything about Bioshock 2 and didn’t even know that the main character would be a Big Daddy. After couple of minutes of gameplay you receive your first plasmid and instantly notice the fact that you can keep weapon in right hand, AND use plasmid with the left hand! This is such a big improvement from the original Bioshock and this made playing even more enjoyable. The story in this game is very interesting also, setting it’s place in a time after the original Bioshock, where Andrew Ryan is dead and someone named Sofia Lamb is in charge. This Lamb-lady has stolen your little sister so you have to go and kick some ass to get her back.

There are numerous differencies in this game and the first Bioshock. Examples of good ones being the possibility to get special things to weapons after you have upgraded them twice, a little note telling you the code to a code-lock if you have seen or heard the code before and the research camera being replaced with a video camera. One of the annoying differencies is the way collecting adam is handled. You have to find a little sister, kill its Big Daddy and take the sister for a ride. When you find a body filled with adam you lay the sister down and defend her against a endless wave of splicers untill the adam harvesting is complete. This part takes annoyingly long and is just very boring. And you will be doing it a lot. You will be needing the adam in the end when you want to get some of those new upgraded plasmids that cost damn much.

Overally this game is even better than the original Bioshock so I suggest you buy this great game and see the story for yourself. I am not going to spoil any of it!

So what else has happened? I reinstalled my Windows 7 and it feels lot faster. I also switched from Mozilla Firefox to Google Chrome. This is rather nice browser, but it is missing an adblock addon similiar to the one in Firefox.

EDIT:

I was 11th in the semi-finals. Gratz me! :)

On the other news, I am back playing WoW with my warrior I leveled. Healing with my druid become quite boring after a while (year) and I decided to try on tanking. Now I have a very good geared tank warrior to go to Icecrown Citadel with. Been clearing 10man with my guild and 25man with pugs. Here is a pic of my warrior and my custom UI (made by me, idea from tankspot).

My tank warrior and my custom UI

I will try to write more often, maybe something about my projects.

Probably not the kind of player you think I ment, but she is awesome. So young and plays like an expert. Was bored and spent a long time singing by myself listening to her playing (only time I can sing is when I am alone, since my singing voice is so horrible).

Oh and I also am taking part in a competition where I will be competing in my skill of doing websites. We will be given some paper exams with questions like “if you had PHP-code like this, what would the outcome be?” and etc. I am very nervous about it, since I tend to think I suck at making websites.
