Is a user's previous gamertile data available anywhere? I'd like to create a tab on 360vui, kind of like a museum, and display every (or as many as possible) gamertile the user had ever had and hopefully display the dates the gamertile was in use. |

This would be a nifty idea. |

I'll take a look and see if there's anything I can do to fix it up. Like Sparky said, ever since NXE and avatars came out, the gamertile code has been a bit wonky (that's a technical term ;)
I'll look and see if it's fixable though... |

That and any cataloging of the gametiles on websites have been turned off as well do to the avatars.

Yeah the gamertile section stopped working once NXE came out last year. I've changed my gamerpic about 10 times since then and it still says I am using my avatar. Maybe Koding will have an idea of how to fix it. |

Thanks for the help guys. I have added a quick and dirty Gamertile Gallery to 360vui. A couple of more questions.
Is there any way to find the very first gamertile someone used. Parsing the blogs only gives me the first one they changed to.
How can I get the info on the gamertile like what group and/or game it came from, how many users have it, etc.? |

Here's what I do in .net... the replace at the end is how I format it to a size that works for me.
Private Function GetGamerPic(ByVal p_blog As String) As String
Dim matchString As String = "<img\b[^>]*>"
Dim regX As New System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex(matchString, RegexOptions.Singleline)
Dim result As String = regX.Match(p_blog).Value()
If result <> "" Then
result = result.Replace("style=""float:left;margin: 5px 8px 0 0;""", "width=""32"" height=""32"" ")
End If
Return result
End Function |

Definitely. Thanks. |

I have a funny feeling this was recently discussed.
The only option I think you have is to handle it yourself and query the gamerpic every day and store in your own db when it changes.
Then again, when someone changes it is mentioned in the blog entry. Maybe you could do something with the blog-entries feed? I have a feeling I looked at this once out of curiousity and remembered it seemed difficult to do it that way (if not impossible)!
EDIT: I had a look and it seems like, if there was a gamertile change, it's the first thing in the entry on the API. If you could parse that, you could get the gamertile info, and use the date to see when it was changed. You'd need to do a BIG import for a new user, but from then on you could have a job to check it daily?
Just a thought...
