ehm..
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

Seeing as I can see your HTML then I am pretty sure I could use your certificate.
A room without books is like a body without a soul.
Facts are meaningless. They can be used to prove anything that is even remotely true.
Go then, there are other worlds than these.

It is like that by design. The only way to guarantee that no one could show anyone else's certificate is if you were to explicitely list the URLs of all web pages you want it on.

Also ... I like the way that you can link to other profiles other than your own. You may wish to put on your blog something like, "here are the best three members in the C++ forum" or something like that.

Right now, member badges are as simple as badge1.jpg for member 1 and badge2.jpg for member 2, etc. Even if the filenames were to be encrypted, if someone is using a badge on their site, you can simply view source and copy and paste the html code and use their badge on your own site. Therefore, the only way to truly not let anyone else use your badge is if everyone explicitely provided a list of every single individual webpage that includes the image (domain names wouldn't even work b/c that would be too broad for myspace pages, etc, where one domain has lots of users).

Plus, I kinda like the idea of letting people link to each other's member profiles. There's nothing on the certificates that is private in any way, etc.

One thing I noticed:
If you don't have an avatar you get a standard one in your member-batch. Is this on purpose?
Want better/more replies to your questions? Wrap your code in [code] [/code] tags!
do NOT pm me for help, in the best case, you'll get ignored
