Hi Alberico, Thx for the reply, much appreciated.
lets say zero for experience in programming. I once mucked around with url in university and have a very general idea, but yea. Not a ton. This isn’t something I need to immediately learn, so if it’s even just “Go learn X” that may be an option. Right now I’m trying to suss out exactly how difficult an undertaking this idea might be.
As for your second question. The idea is: a viewer could click on the extension in their browser. There they would see three options they could purchase with bits. They would choose which ever option they liked. Their name would then appear for all to see and the animation would be played for every one who is currently viewing the stream. I, the streamer would not see it. But if there is also a notification in chat, I could thank them. It’s a similar idea to what most streamers use with donations .gif/sound alerts, but using bits and allowing for different animations to be played depending on the amount of bits spent.
