Usage

Custom images

Supported URLs are:

1. DOMAIN The just the page domain / loads one of the default files

2. DOMAIN?BA5E64== Where BA5E64== is a UTF-8 base64 encoded string of one of the following things:

3. An image URL

   Example: http://i.imgur.com/cz1Jb.jpg

   Use that URL image instead of the default one.

4. A JSON string representing an array of URLs

   Example: ["http://i.imgur.com/cz1Jb.jpg","http://i.imgur.com/Q5IqH.jpg"]

   Pick one of the images at random and use that instead of the default one.

5. A JSON string representing an object with the keys 'images', 'background' and 'hideNote'

   Example: {"background":"#000","images":["http://i.imgur.com/cz1Jb.jpg","http://i.imgur.com/Q5IqH.jpg"]}

   images (required): Pick one of the images at random and use that instead of the default one.

   background (optional): Use the value of background as the page background.

   hideNote (optional): Hide the mention on the bottom.

6. DOMAIN?image_url

Where image URL is an actual image URL this is for backwards compatibility.

Example: http://i.imgur.com/cz1Jb.jpg

This is how putting in a custom image used to work.

4. DOMAIN#a_string

This will redirect to DOMAIN?b64(a_string)

This should be used to construct things as above.

Note: where DOMAIN is usually http://koalastothemax.com
