Happy new year all :D, some good news
Going to Florence (Italy) for work placement! WOOT!
Phew got that out! Over Christmas I worked solid for 2 weeks on a little obsession I had one weekened. I had originally created my Lodestone API which pulls character data, I then implimented a database record for this then I figured, if I can get the data, store the data, why not track/monitor the data and provide a sort of timeline life for characters? Well I did just that!
I created a website called: FFXIV Lodestone Pads
Source Code is included on webpage for download.
This simple site features:
• My PHP API split by definition, eg: Web/Gear/Character.
• Simple Login system for Gear Management
• Active user online with User -> Character display
• Character List: Displaying all characters with: Server/Event Count/Last Updated
• Character List: Filters for each Server
• Character List: Sort options Asc/Desc for all headers
• Character List: Avatar with full-size hover
• Pad: Information representing information
• Pad: Export for outside parsing/streaming
• Pad: Update display with seconds/minutes/hours and color representation
• Pad: Header including Avatar, Mugshots, Guardian, Add Date, CICUID, City and more
• Pad: An "Overall Progress" displaing how far into all classes one is
• Pad: Physical Level status and attributes display
• Pad: SP Calculations from timeline events with estimated cap calculation
• Pad: Events Timeline displaying what happened between 2 updates
• Pad: Events include high SP Gains, High EXP Gains, Ranks, Levels and Defeated Bosses
• Pad: Detailed class progress bars with Current and To Cap display
• Pad: List of classes levelled from highest to lowest
• Pad: Achivements Table with GuildSkills display, linked to YG
• Pad: Gear displays with individual pages, linked to YG!
Lots of stuff! =D
I will setup a page for this next update.

Last month of the year is coming forth (ans so is my birthday!), one project I have been heavily working on the past month is my FFXIV Lodestone API, if you dont know what this is let me brief it down:
A online multiplayer game I play named Final Fantasy XIV outputs peoples in-game character data onto a website, this data is like Health, Mana, Name, Class, Level and so on, a bunch of data.
So I created a API in PHP to allow people to quickly and easily get access to any character information on it, and then I extended it into a database format so they can store this data if they choose.
The API is so simple that you basically: Upload, Include and you can do $char->player_name, now you have the name, that is it! Or $char->player_profile["Level"] for specific details!. I now have just fully finished the database table and you can view a demo below, I will be working on a sort of "pads display" soon, which you will like!

I did a bunch of community research over the past few weeks to gather some data on the improvements that could be made to Final Fantasy XIV, the list became massive so having it on notepad was not suitable and so I created a small webpage for it.

EDIT: October 29th
More updates! I've done some major significant changes to this:
• New "Thumbs Up" feature that allows people to vote which suggestions they agree with, pushing it to the top!
• Thumbs-Up feature is in realtime, you vote and everyone sees it, it will also add your vote in realtime without reloading the page and putting you to the top
• Other sections: Export List, improved styles on all pages, done a lot of php adjustments, added a progress section.

EDIT: October 17th
I have added a lot more features to the website, including: Timeline, displaying a short line of all the updates equal to their dates (I will probably bunch these up into months rather than individual dates). Bug lists, Sending Suggestion textbox, priority lists, update tracking and the such. Also kept it very clean and tidied it up a lot, making it a little bit more fancier!

You can view all my Final Fantasy XIV Applications to the right, these are mainly aid tools such as a map planner or guildleve manager.
I will be extending and reformatting some of the design of my portfolio pages on the left, putting in some detail of the development progress and such that I went through when creating each project. Hopefully give some better examples!
