Welcome to Favebox, a fun little widget you can put on your deviantART journal that lets people "favourite" or "Vote" on your journals! You can see how popular your journals are!

You simply enter your username and pick a colour, and you get a code to place within your journal (there's even code available for non-subscribers!). When people visit your journal, they will see a box and a button. When they click the button, their "vote" is registered on my website and the box is updated accordingly.

Please note that because of limitations on deviantART's side, no usernames are actually recorded, nor is this journal added to your real favourites. Instead, your vote is recorded anonymously and the number of "faves" is increased by one. Once deviantART provides us with a way to obtain a username, I will update this script and you will be able to see WHO has faved your journals.

You can register as many journals as you want and it's all completely free :)

Have fun with this, and don't forget to leave comments. I'd also appreciate it if you displayed :thumb46767570: on your journal!

An older version of the source code for this is located here. Once I clean up the source for the "new" favebox, I'll release it.

Thanks to `BoffinbraiN for the idea and `dancewiththesky for assistance with the $_SESSION code while I was still a coding newb.

Edit: Thanks for the DD! And thanks to everyone who has registered for a Favebox. YOU are what keeps this project alive!

Update: There is now a text-only version for non-subscribers. Register a favebox and get the code at the bottom of the registration page!

If you want to position your Favebox for maximum exposure (and I recommend it ;)), try this CSS code:

.favebox {

right: 10px;
top: 50px;
position: absolute;

}


And simply add a < div class="favebox"> and a < /div> to the very start and end of your Favebox code!

Since Deviantart now allows you to fav journals, is it possible to make this display the number of favorites on your journal and when you click the heart button it adds to your favorites?
