@ShadowWizard Honest opinion: do you think that having a set of hats available all year long, already unlocked, just for decoration... would be worth?

@Derpy you mean something like this?

Q: Wardrobe for hats?

I just wonder if there is some kind of wardrobe I could store my hats? I know that when winter ends I will not be able to wear them, too hot and all that, but I'd love to keep them and be able to look at them once in a while, and sometimes show them to my friends.

Something nice to have, but I don't think enough people will support it for having the team spend time on it.

@ShadowWizard nope, read the tavern. I was wondering if implementing an user script to add wearable hats is worth the effort.

@Derpy the Tavern is 80% Smoke Detector reports and the replies to them, very hard to see anything else. Any chance for a link or explain what you mean?

New mad idea. We could build a client side hat user script to add custom hats support all year long. Probably the only problem is that all the hats would be available from the start - it would be just for decoration purpose...

Basically, I was exploring the idea of building a client side hat selector, that would allow you to display an hat on your avatar.

To add support for displaying other users avatar, we would either need a server storage somewhere... or reuse one of the user profile info.

I though of hiding some metadata as exif info in the user avatar, and have a grease monkey powered ui manage the avatar switch based on the user selected hat.

@Derpy so how is it different from the question I linked to? Still not sure I get it...

Derpy

@ShadowWizard the question as far as I am interpreting it is asking for a gallery of the hat pictures - I know that when winter ends I will not be able to wear them

I was thinking of some custom "app" that added actually wearable hats.

Well, sounds like tons of work for little gain @Derpy - unless you already know of many people that will use it?

Derpy

@ShadowWizard what gain? the only hope for "gain" would be a meta question and getting rep that way.

but it could be a fine exercise to do.

Shadow Wizard

@Derpy in that case, go ahead! :)
