Banners wiki page

Description

This page will be used to have all WZ banners on one place. They can be used for signatures, for printing on materials, or for advertising. You may also edit them using provided source files, to make them more suitable for your's intended use.

Requirements

There are no special requirements about design or any other ascpect of banners. However, try to keep the size reasonable. Recommended is 468x60 pixels. People may use them on places that have specific size limits, but it is also good to provide hi-res images in case someone needs them. It is also nice if you provide source file(PSD) so others can modify your banner to suite their needs.

You can license your banners as you wish. CC 0 license is prefered as it doesn't restrict users in any way.

WZ Images/Materials for banners

Lots of official WZ graphics can be found here: http://developer.wz2100.net/browser/trunk/icons/

Random banner script

Random banner script is a image PHP script which imitates a random banner image, resulting in a diffrent image loaded each time the script is called.

It is made and matinained by KukY.

This is the current source of the script(Commented):

<?php
/*
Random banner script
by KukY from http://wz2100.net/
Distributed under CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 license.
Contact the author: tonykukas@gmail.com, http://kuky.99k.org/
*/
//Define the .php file as a image.
header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
//Add image URLs to array. Each goes in a separate line
$images[1]='Image URL 1';
$images[2]='Image URL 2';
$images[3]='Image URL 3';
//Done placing images.
//Randomize which image will we display. Value is random between 1 and nuber of strings in the array.
$displayed=rand(1,count($images,0));
//Finaly, place the image using an URL from the array.
include($images[$displayed]); 
?>

Currently, the script can't be found online, ready to be used.

Usage: Link to the script as it was a regular image. Examples:

<img src="random.php" alt="WZ2100 Banner: http://wz2100.net/" />
[img]random.php[/img]
