would it be the Adverts by any chance?


Webbo, I noticed on our profile page there is a text field for our last.fm username with the label "If you have a last.fm user name enter it here to enable automatic display of your recently played songs"

When & where will these be displayed?

My original intention was to extract the last played song info and add it as part of the sig every time someone makes a post.
The problem with that is that the last.fm site is frequently down/slow, so this would have an effect on the performance of the forum and may stop posts from being added.

So what I plan to do instead, when I have time, is add a link to someone's profile (or maybe below their avatar), which will go to a page of info about what that person has been listening to. Needs a bit of programming though and I've not found the time to do it yet, so I don't want to promise a timescale.

is it possible for the forum to automaticly put things in people's signatures? some how use the usernames in people's profiles to create an image link. you can set it so it only displays one song, no massive images that way.

the urls are the same for everyone except for the username

The point of putting it in the sig would be to indicate what someone was listening to at the time they were posting.
The images update automatically, so they show what people were listening to at the time you look at the image (or shortly before), not at the time the post was made.

unless you cached the image & linked it to that post, but seems like a lot of effort, & bandwidth, for very little gain

My last FM seems to have stopped working.
It hasn't updated since the week ending 24th September even though I have listened to quite a bit of music on my computer.
Anyone have a clue why?
