The hotlinked error images are now mathemagically coloured with random, complimenting or high contrasting tints.

I was busy geeking around with the graphics processing powers of PHP...when I became suddenly inspired and discovered a solution to a very difficult colour processing problem I had been having!

One of the new features I've been working on for FAP² is the ability to search by colour. Currently, artists can tag colours themselves, but I would like to automate it so that the server calculates the colours upon upload and adds the correct tags for you.

Writing a program that evaluates colours quickly has been...difficult. But! I think I discovered a faster method tonight:


So, like, it creates a list of the 9 most frequently occurring colours, then compares to a limited list of colour tags (eg, black, white, orange, red, pink, purple, blue, etc...). Awesome.

I need to release the new fap, like, now. So I can play with these features on a larger base of art...grumble...

Recently, a lot of FAP's bandwidth has been going towards hotlinked images. This isn't very cool. But, instead of slapping down an ugly 403-image...like...

...FAP sends a polite, eloquent, beautiful little message to the person trying to take our bandwidth.
