Pasties

Journal Entry: Fri May 7, 2010, 6:46 AM


LOL I know what you are all thinking by that title, but I am not talking about the strategically placed stickers women wear when they want to wear nothing, but also show nothing... XD

I am talking about the DA pasties, the little code that DA provided so that we could post thumbnails of like our recent favourites, or submissions.


I wish to know, since I would greatly like to update my page some more, and have a feed for my favourites. But I can't unless I can figure this out due to the fact that when you add a BG onto a widget, it covers what was on it before.
Thus is why I have been fighting with the featured deviation window as well T_T

Thanks in Advanced! :heart:

I'm not able to actually use or test widgets or pasties on my account. But from what I gather you need the ability to use <script> tags (since it's JavaScript), and your own personal key which the now-missing pastie generator used to give you. In other words, it was likely meant for integration into other websites and they've replaced or removed it since. I'm not sure what they want you to use now, but they left the backend working, so if you had your key you could still use pasties if you know how the backend URL works.

At this point they are probably useless to you, but I figured out a little bit about the URL anyway for reference. As an example from one of those tutorials:

[link]

iam=yourdAusername
key=yourkey

filter = da (deviations from all of dA)
  stream = recent (recently submitted)
  stream = popular (daily top favourites)
filter = mine (deviations from your account)
  stream = feature (featured)
  stream = recent (recently submitted)
  stream = popular (most popular)
  stream = faves (recent favourites)
  stream = ? (recent wishlist additions)
filter = ? (your prints)

limit = 3 (max number to display)

ori = h (display horizontally)
ori = v (display vertically)

size = small (only option I think)


Right. Well that's that. :p

Without a way to retrieve your key, it's pretty much useless, unfortunately.

I always thought pasties where the things I ate for lunch, pastry wrapped around a filling then baked...
I think thats about as helpful as I can be.

The sad thing is, I'd only be able to help you after my two year Game Development Technician course is over. Best of luck with it though.
