Sounds awesome!
If only jagex would just add it to their in game clock as an option
I totally agree, its little things like that, that really make a difference. They could have even made it a reward to unlock from the last Seren quest. Would be something that would get lots of use and not be a game breaker.

I'm just doing my final testing for the VOS Clock right now, need to wait 45 min (for the next hour to tick over) just so I can make sure it's doing what it should.

That'll make it 2:00am, so I'm doubtful I'll push out an update tonight. I've learnt the hard way not to publish updates when I'm tired, it can mean I get no sleep at all :/

Oh that's neat. I see in the description they are hitting the @JagexClock too.

I expect we are doing it in a similar way. I created a widget on twitter to get the data and linkify saves it. That way I read from saved data (without requesting each time) until the hour has changed. It updates without a page refresh too.

The notifications are nice idea. I wont be doing that though because I want to keep my focus on the forums and not stray too far

Edit:

I'm not sure where to put the icons, this where they are in my test version and I haven't been able to find a better place.

They have mouse over text giving the clan name because I always forget what's what

My only thought on the location when you originally mentioned it was something like...

But only for the nice symmetry of it hehe. I like your location choice and how it's neat, not the focus, and effective

^Good to see some different approaches. I didn't try that position because that wont work on the main forum page, search threads pages, profiles, CoC, and specific rules. It's got to work and be the same for all forum pages, so that limits the options somewhat :/

The size has been a hard one to choose. I went with much smaller than I envisioned.

I know what you mean about symmetry and I tried a few things but keeping them together seems to make more sense to me. Considering you can mouse over them for the clan names makes me feel keeping them together is handy.

Keep in mind there is pretty much no symeterty on many of these pages. That's not necessarily a bad thing. If you look at the layout things are aligned left or right (button and such). Posts are not centred so it looks like the page number buttons are off centre when they are in the middle. It's pretty hard to mix symmetry in this layout. It can be done but it really depends on what it is.

I'll push out an update and see it goes, I'm done testing and it's doing what it should

I'm still open to suggestions though

Hehe, I didn't even think of that.. This is why you're the expert designer and I'm just the silly user who pesters you too often about things

Thanks for the cuppa Keighlea ­<3

Update: RS-Linkify Version 3.1.8.58

Voice of Seren is now a thing on forum pages. I'm uncertain how reliable the timing is for the voice updates and I have allowed a little breathing room. I may adjust the timings if needed. For now I need to see how it goes.

Thanks Keighlea for the suggestion and the info you gave me
