The comments plugin has a new feature that allows you to access the “stream” of comments as they are submitted to your comments box. So now you can “do stuff” on your page in response to comments that people make.

Title is (mostly) a joke, but it wouldn’t be toooo hard to create simple multiplayer games like chess or little point-and-click worlds that people can play on your page via the comments (just need to ignore invalid user moves/inputs based on the rules of the game you’re making).

I expect a few perchance devs to play around with some “mad science” along those lines, but for most people, probably the most useful thing here is that it allows you to completely customize the way comments are displayed. Including e.g. adding avatar pics to comments, changing the background image of every comment based on the keywords in it, making confetti fly across the page (for everyone) when someone says a secret/“easter egg” keyword, and so on.

    Such a chat-feature would be really useful to me!

    I just added a feature where users can save the generator prompt settings as a json file: https://perchance.org/fusion-ai-image-generator

    So maybe copy-pasting the .json file could create a compact link or something.

    Then another user clicks the link and it will load into the generator. IDK

    Haven’t added this new chat format yet. Open to ideas.

      IIUC, the upload plugin is perfect for what you want to achieve here: https://perchance.org/upload-plugin

      It’s used to create settings/character/etc. share links for e.g.

        Thanks! Yeah , this is great !

        I’m thinking of creating some sort of space where people can share their generator settings with each other.

        So for example , if Bob has configured the fusion generator to generate " frogs on a beach" or something , he can save the settings he used and upload them to a shared directory

        Then Alice can download that savefile , load it into the generator and generate “frogs on a beach” on her device.

        It would be nice to have an Image URL to go with every .json file , but I don’t think I can do that since there is no way for me to moderate that properly.

        //----//

        Sidenote:

        Been on a hiatus from the AI chat , but I’m thinking a similiar feature could be even more useful there.

        E.g Instead of inventing a scenario , or inventing a character to chat with , I pick a json file from a public directory with a scenario and/or character and load it into the AI chat generator

        Again; this would also be a good feature to use with an URL image.

        So you browse a gallery , click an image of “a frog on a beach” with lots of upvotes , and the .json file is loaded into the AI chat and you can have a conversation with “a frog on a beach”

        //-----//

        Extra sidenote :

        A “global” image gallery could be pretty cool.

        So all perchance AI generators that upload to the folder “global” will all upload to to the same folder.

        And if you click the image you get a link to the generator it was uploaded from.

        Can be a cool discovery tool for users , and a way to encourage competition between generator creators.
