[TOOL] ⭐Bitcointalk BRDb score

[*Ace*]

Last night I was able to get back to work on the tool; I’ve made a few improvements to the badge sizes and the display in mobile mode.
I’d be grateful if you could let me know how it looks on your smartphone without selecting the ‘desktop view’ option from the menu.
Please send me a screenshot, privately if you prefer. Thanks in advance.

Hey mate, great update! I’ve just had a look at it! I’d say the badges are much clearer now, but I’ve come across quite a significant issue.
The display varies considerably across different browsers.
For example, on Firefox Nightly, it looks great.



And on Mises, the display looks like this too
But on the Kiwi browser, unfortunately, the display is different and off-centre



The biggest problem will be finding the right balance, but you risk fixing one thing only to break another

Yeah, badges look much better now and they are much more visible than before.
One more thing I would improve are not badges, but it is text showing BRDb, Reputation, and Impact.
Only way to see what is written there is by hovering over each category, and I think this could be improved with larger font size.



This is showing what I was talking about:

Well, how can I run this extension on my mobile in the first place?
I have iOS, and as far as I know, there is no way of having extensions on a mobile browser (Safari or Chrome)

I don’t have any iOS devices myself, so I’m going by what I’ve found online.
Mises is also available on the App Store; on Android it supports extensions, so it’s likely to work on iPhones too, but you’ll need to try it out to be sure.

OK, I’ll make the rank badges bigger as soon as possible to make them easier to read. Thanks for the advice.

Unfortunately, this is quite a problem; the display varies from browser to browser. I’ll see if I can make it look more consistent across all browsers, but it’s difficult

Have you tried this browsers as suggested earlier?

Bit of googling led me to these options, I don't have iOS device to check these meself, but I don't see why they wouldn't work.

Via browser (Userscripts support) | Gear browser (Userscripts and extension support | Edge (Extension support) | Orion (Extension support)

I’ve made a few changes, but I couldn’t enlarge the rank badges because they were placed on the profile card, which has too many elements and they no longer fit once I enlarged them.
I’ve moved them to a separate card so it looks tidier.
Is this better? Or does it look really awful?

I have to be honest and say that I don't see any significant difference since numbers are bigger, but not he text
You don't have to increase those three badges, just increase the size of text font inside them, to make it more visible and readable.
Alternative option is to place the bigger text bellow each respective badge.

OK, I tried a few different things, but unfortunately the text inside the badges still wasn’t very clear, even when I made it bigger. I decided to start from scratch, putting the text on the outside where it’s easy to read, and changed the colours to make it look sharper.
I hope you can see them properly now 

[fillippone]

Well, why don't you use a serious image host service in the first place




Secondly, this looks way better! Definitely an improvement as far as readability is concerned!


EDIT: Image loaded on the second try. Well, I still support talkimg.com!

You’re right, I should use a proper hosting service. But as I have a tool that uploads images directly from the forum text box, it works fine for me as it is.
I’ll have to see if it works the same way with Talkimg.

Anyway, thanks so much for the feedback.
I hope I won’t have to touch them again, as these badges have been quite a hassle.

Now that looks much better now and improvement is clearly visible
I would probably pick slightly different font style for numbers, but I don't want to nitpick again.
Another thing I just noticed is that ratings can be seen also for local boards, and that can be very useful.

Now that it’s clearly improved, I’ll add a few more things to my to-do list as soon as I’ve got a bit of spare time.
I’ll try some other fonts – maybe that’ll improve the readability even further.
I’ll show you the updates as usual.
The leaderboard is also broken down by local board – is that what you’re referring to?

I think it’s time to take off the [Experimental] tag from the title of this thread.
You slowly evolved the project from alpha to beta and, now, to a production-level experience—we expect incremental features, not dramatic improvements.

I also recommend updating the OP to be fully up-to-date again. For example, the website URL is missing there.

Lol! This is the boring part of having a mature product: less fun developing new functions, more crime doing boring stuff, maintaining the operations!

Yes, you're right, I should remove the 'experimental' tag and replace it with 'tool'
I'll do it straight away

At the moment, I don't have any ideas for new features, but if anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to hear them!

This is a sore point; I don’t have much experience managing threads and I keep forgetting to update it, but I’ll do so and include all the new features

[*Ace*]

OK, I’ve updated the thread by adding the latest updates and removing anything from the first post that no longer needed to be there.
I think I’ve included everything you need to know.
I’ve added a link to the tool’s website!
As always, I look forward to your feedback, and many thanks to you all.

I must say this tool is now part of my daily routine.
I am actively using it, and it gives me an idea of the situation of the person I am reading the post of.
Of course, as it is a tool from a very simple formula, it needs some caution, but I would say ballpark indications are well structured.

[DYING_S0UL]

@*Ace*, you have made quite an improvement over so short span of time.

Also, this time, the badges look more neat and clean and elegant, especially now the badges are in a readable format. I noticed you added a custom Bitcointalk community award badge to your profile, which looks great btw. Since you are doing so much, why not add the result link (source) as a reference as well? This should be included in all the other winners too.

A clickable link inside the badge or below it, where discovery is written. It's only a suggestion.

I must say this tool is now part of my daily routine.

I can definitely relate to this.
It never occurred to me that I was using a 3rd party tool.
Just as BPIP has been our daily routine, this too, is following the same path.
