Oekakis are really nice community-esque drawing boards. They're also very easy to customize (at least in my opinion). I own one if you wanna check out all the different customizations that are possible. http://oekaki.oevista.org/ Anything is possible if you know how to edit the horribly crappy code that is oekaki poteto. (Though Waccoon did a good job cleaning it up with Wacintaki and Wax Poteto). I think an oekaki here would be a cool idea, but yes, you are right. It's a bitch to integrate into other sites. You pretty much have to install it on its own separate database. From there, you gotta find a way to merge the member table from the oekaki with the member table of Shadowness, so that they're both running on one member database. Then from there, the whole oekaki code needs to be edited so that it recognizes whatever codes you are using on shadowness to identify the members and such. It's really a hassle that's not worth the time or the effort. You'd be better off installing a separate one and having people just re-register.

Ehh, I dunno if I like this program. It runs real slow on my comp, and there is no undo function, let alone a submit function @_@.....

Jul 26th, 2007 Reply7Shadows
never an easy task. i've just spend the last 30 minutes on it. i don't think it's worth it. it's like vbulletin.
