English reader? Stay tuned, just a short german intro.. the rest of this posting is written in english (more or less.. ;-) ).
So, ich mach hier kurz mal eine deutsche Einleitung, der Rest des Postings wird in Englisch gehalten sein, weil vielleicht ein paar Leute vorbei schauen werden die kein Deutsch können. ;-)
Mad Kristensens wrote a nice blog entry about cool projects that don't exist, and one of those projects is an ASP.net HttpHandler implementation of MonsterID. (look here, and here)
So I tried it, and voila here it is. =)
Just copy MonsterID.cs into your App_Code folder, the MonsterID folder into App_Data, register the HttpHandler in your web.config (or just use the MonsterID.ashx file provided) and use it like that:
<img src="MonsterID.ashx?seed=[whatyoulike]&size=[size]" />
Me:
Download MonsterID ASP.net HttpHandler
He said it should be Open Source. So let it be. ;-) Mads distributes his blog engine under the Ms-PL, so I thought I will use this license too..
Comments on implementation etc are welcome.. :-)
I hope it's good enough and free of errors,..
Foor a quick look at your monster I will provide a demo page soon..
Edit
Demo page online.. :-)
