And so the xkcd.com bot for the LMAO pics thread was born.
It took me less than an hour from the idea to the finished bot [editline]18th April 2012[/editline] [b]Never[/b] [img]http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/never.png[/img] [i]I'll never forget you--at least, the parts of you that were important red flags.[/i] [editline]18th April 2012[/editline] [b]Never[/b] [img]http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/never.png[/img] [i]I'll never forget you--at least, the parts of you that were important red flags.[/i]
Make the title or the image link to the original. [editline]18th April 2012[/editline] Actually, sometimes the image links to a high-resolution image, so you should detect that.
Yep, you're right [editline]18th April 2012[/editline] [b][url=http://xkcd.com/1042/]Never[/url][/b] [img]http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/never.png[/img] [i]I'll never forget you--at least, the parts of you that were important red flags.[/i] [editline]18th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Deco Da Man;35619303]Actually, sometimes the image links to a high-resolution image, so you should detect that.[/QUOTE] Could you please link me to an example that does that?

have you looked at what happens with xkcd 1037? its a script that loads a different comic for different user-agents and geo-ips. there probably won't be anything like it in future comics though...
Well, it will probably pull the german version then
Why don't you just make the images that have a bigger version available clickable? Then it's more intuitive since it works just like thumbnail.s

Wouldn't it make more sense to just have a Comics Bot that posts everything rather than separate accounts? That way you could just supply it with an extra RSS feed when you want to add a new comic.

[QUOTE=Deco Da Man;35673503]Wait - what's with this extra image? Has every SMBC comic had a hidden quip that I've missed?[/QUOTE] It shows up if you hover your cursor over the big red dot under the comic.
[QUOTE=Lexic;35673124]Wouldn't it make more sense to just have a Comics Bot that posts everything rather than separate accounts? That way you could just supply it with an extra RSS feed when you want to add a new comic.[/QUOTE] That's a very good idea, and will simplify things. By the way, I've also ordered a VPS to run the bot on!
