[X] My Assistant

In case you need a timer for your auction, giveaway, etc., here is a new option: [pure-svg-countdown.skk.moe] https://pure-svg-countdown.skk.moe/

The timer is currently powering countdown for Grandmaster's "Xuan's Auction".

How to use

1. Go to the website (link above)
2. Fill in the needed fields. All fields are optional EXCEPT "Date & Time".
3. Click "Create link". It will generate a preview and create a link like this:

CODE

https://pure-svg-countdown.skk.moe/timer?title=Look%20Mum%2C%20it%20is%20dynamic!&finish=32-bit%202038%20Year%20Problem!&time=2038-01-19T03%3A14%3A00.000Z#.png

4. If it works as intended, you can copy/paste the link in your thread, and wrap the link with bbcode img syntax:

CODE

[img]https://pure-svg-countdown.skk.moe/timer?title=Look%20Mum%2C%20it%20is%20dynamic!&finish=32-bit%202038%20Year%20Problem!&time=2038-01-19T03%3A14%3A00.000Z#.png[/img]

Example

The example code above will present a timer like this:

It is Open-Sourced!

The project is open-sourced under MIT License and is deployed on the Vercel Serverless platform. If you want to contribute or deploy your own instance of the timer, please check [github.com] the repository at GitHub.

Reserved (1 floor should be enough I guess).

This tool is great, thanks for sharing

I am having a little trouble with it

I generated a file with a red background and green border to match the season a bit, generating it on the skk.moe site works, but embedding on e-h makes it appear grey with black borders.

Generated code:

CODE

I also have an issue where on firefox, it displays like this:



And On edge, it displays like this:



It seems to work fine after opening the image in a new tab and completing a captcha though, maybe just doesn't like my vpn

As an image with same surrounding bbocode if it helps troubleshoot:

Edit: It's now needing me to open it up in chrome to complete the captcha here as well with the same dead image icon as edge

Edit:2 as an aside, if you don't mind feature requests, it'd be great if we could change font colour too

Edt 3: The dead image icon comes back after a short time and requires clearing the captcha again

The generated URL includes [en.wikipedia.org] web colors in the #rrggbb format, with the first two #s [en.wikipedia.org] percent-encoded to %23. However, the BBCode processing resolves percent-encoded characters back to what they were to begin with, even through multiple layers of percent-encoding, and that breaks the functionality. As a workaround, I tried using the text names of standard web colors, and that works, including the extended color names.

+1 on the text color option. Otherwise dark background colors aren't usable.

I just modify my WAF rules and it should be working now.
