Picture Login

Table of Contents

Picture Login provides a much nicer login message by displaying a picture of the player's head inside of chat. By default it retrieves player avatars from Crafatar (or another service that you can change inside of the config!). It is very customizable; you can edit anything from the source of the avatar to the message beside it.

Here is a picture of what the default settings look like:

As you can see, you can use color and formatting codes, and even variables! The message is also easy to customize.

Features

These are just a few of the features of Picture Login:

Ability to use color/formatting codes.
Ability to set a custom avatar url.
Ability to use variables.
Ability to center text.
And much more to be implemented!

TESTING SERVER: Coming soon...

/pictureloginDisplays plugin information.
/picturelogin reload Reloads the configuration

picturelogin.main /picturelogin reload
picturelogin.show If the player doesn't have this then the message will not be shown for/to them.

The configuration file is well commented, please refer to it for help! (Click to see default file)

Thanks to bobacadodl for his Image Message Library!
Thanks to Crafatar for their avatar service!

Metrics

This plugin uses the bStats metrics system.

By default, bStats sends the following data:

Your server's randomly generated UUID
The amount of players on your server
The online mode of your server
The bukkit version of your server
The java version of your system (e.g. Java 8)
The name of your OS (e.g. Windows)
The version of your OS
The architecture of your OS (e.g. amd64)
The system cores of your OS (e.g. 8)
bStats-supported plugins
Plugin version of bStats-supported plugins

To disable metrics, simply set enabled to false in the config.yml file located in the bStats plugin folder.

More information available here.

In reply to CloudeLecaw:

Hiya! This happens due to your server not being able to pull the avatar from Crafatar (or whatever avatar service you're using).

I'll be uploading a build later today that includes better error handling in case this happens.

EDIT: Just uploaded v1.2.1 which should fix this issue!

Positives:

For the most part this plugin works. Easy to set up and does what it says it can do.

Negatives:

Centering text feature in the config does not actually center your text. If you have a lot to write in your MOTD, then I advise setting "centered" to false.
Setting the "Disable Default Join Message" via the config to false does nothing and the join message still shows.
No variable to show players ranks. Ex: [Owner] Ren has joined the game, will now be Ren has joined the game.
MOST IMPORTANT: It seems to be that the avatars only go off of Minecraft colors.. thus meaning almost every avatar comes out grey/black. (In my opinion making this plugin useless and very ugly -Sorry Nathan).

@galaipa

This is probably happening when colors can't be found closest to your skin color, and the closest one found is gray/black. Not much I can do about this really.

@MoejoeAw44

Yes, change this to true in the config:

############# # Show to player only ######## # Set to true to only send # the login message to # the player that joins. player-only: false

Is there a way to make it so the message only appears to the "Login-er", meaning only the person logging in can see the message, kind of like the Essentials MOTD.

I want this because I want to have this MOTD type thing, with their face, only showing to them when they log in.

Wait i rethought that, a permission that would allow people on there first login to have that message displayed regardless if they had picturelogin.show.

Yes, the leave event is fixed. I tested on 1.7.9, but it should be compatible in 1.7.2. If, not, please let me know and I'll fix whatever's wrong ASAP.
