dathumbs still alive
Aug 06 2008Sorry for my and Google’s English :)
I wrote the program daThumbs. The program adds previews to elements in RSS feeds from DeviantART. Standard in the feed from deviantArt is only the work name and a link to a page. With the help daThumbs previews appear in the feed and a link to download.
For those who like to see interesting work with this great resource it will be very useful thing, because the site is rather “heavy”. So far, this running on the home machine, but you can try to get rss feed from there. By link simply enter the address of the feed, which receive at DeviantArt, and subscribe to link received.
Understanding the code own programm, what whas untouching very long time, it was fun. I was not leaving comments. Benefit, mostly cosmetic changes touched upon changes in the deviantArt
Especially in perl I liked constructions like that:
foreach (@time) {
if ($_[0]->$_ < 10) {
${$_} = '0'.$_[0]->$_;
} else {
${$_} = $_[0]->$_;
}
}
The program is distributed freely under the GPLv2 license or higher. Any suggestions and comments are welcome. PR especially (think some your friends will be interested to know) :)
