DOA Status Bar
Hey Groveer, welcome to the wiki. I have seen that you have uploaded the DOA status bar GIF for your character. Unfortunately, it won't work on the wiki. TheYeas checks periodically the external UD profile data base and then displays the appropriate GIF to show that the character was at that time alive/dead/zombiefied. The wiki doesn't check for external cues and treats your life bar as a static GIF file, with the status it displayed at the time of its upload. tl;dr: Images on the wiki can't display your current DOA status, and there is also no workaround to make it possible. -- Spiderzed█ 13:40, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
- Theoretically, you could program and periodically run a bot to upload the current DOA bar for you. That would be taking a sledgehammer to crack a nut, though. - If you want to work with multiple images, keep in mind that unused images are automatically deleted when they are older than 2 weeks. In that case, you are advised to arch the images, like I did in my userspace arch for templates and images I want to preserve. -- Spiderzed█ 18:38, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
