Weird, I could have sworn your preferred avatar was showing up just a few days ago. Should be all fixed up.

Ooo! That reminds me. Skycust has been borked for me for quite a while.
No custom avatars. No floaty phil/Chesterfield Taft head to set options. No shirt. No shoes. No service.

I just got it working again, but just in case anyone else runs into problems, here's what I did to get it going.

In Firefox 3.6.3 with Greasemonkey 0.8.20100408.6, I uninstalled Skycust and reinstalled it using the second link in the first post of this thread: "Greasemonkey script (userscripts)".

On that page, find the green "Install" button near the upper right-hand corner (ignore the tempting "Remotely hosted version" and "Script homepage" links - the Workarounds listed there didn't work for me).

There is one remaining bit of wonkyness: after scanning through a few threads, it appears that Kitteh, Kyra and Lord Gilbert are missing avatars. There may be more; those are just the ones I've noticed so far. Any ideas?

A few of the avatars are broken links because their hosting went down. ('S what I get for graduating.) We have an archive of them and expect to be able to put them back up.

I claim I've reuploaded all the avatars Skycust was missing on my account. If you notice any more anomalies, please let me know.

I am back. And I bring gifts!

Skycust had a few bugs:

1) 404s were not being dealt with by being ignored and people were seeing a lack of an avatar for people, which is not fun. That was a stupid mistake, and should be fixed.
2) The memoization wrapper was completely borked, and thus so was the simple server type. No one has apparently noticed because no one apparently cared about simple servers. The wrapper has been removed, and the simple server has been fixed.
3) The Chrome extension wasn't displaying nice names for simple servers, because I am stupid. Fixed.

And as an added incentive to update, a beta feature! Blacklists are currently in shouldbeworking: the logic is that overriding a user means that you will always want to see a certain image for a certain user, regardless of however the servers change, and blacklisting an image means you never want to see that image, whoever it's for, but would want to see any other avatars for that user recommended by other servers. So, if a user had two avatars recommended by different servers, and you happened to dislike the first one, then there was no way to say "I don't like that image, but keep going through the server list to get to the second one." There is now :D

(I guess the initial post's example of overriding Sluor's horrible image would be better served by blacklisting that image instead of overriding Sluor to original.)

Update from the usual links, or just twiddle your thumbs for chrome users :grin:

Update once more with feeling. I seem to keep finding old bugs in Skycust today - this one has to do with the behaviour of the server editor when nothing's selected.

Lord Gilbert's avatar isn't loading for me - using the default config.
