A list of ready to use banners

[dustdfg]

Hello

I know about https://github.com/keepandroidopen/FreeDroidWarn but it is in app banner. While spreading the word means that you use all the ways. Like banner on fdroid website. So I propose add a list of banners templates for sites, for README files in repos (and in profile descriptions) so people who would like to share it would be able to do it more easily

For example like this one I added to my profile README https://github.com/dustdfg/dustdfg/blob/6a7cfc89401aaa3a012bfd11a67136a0a5af0ecd/README.md

I've added (in #113) the ability to add the countdown banner. See https://keepandroidopen.org/banner/ for instructions.

Unfortunately GitHub profile readmes (probably repo readmes as well) do not support <script> tags, so that https://keepandroidopen.org/banner/ won't work there. Will there be other formats available for such an usage?

Good point. Maybe we should also have a static image that can be included in these cases.

Obviously we can't have the dynamic countdown in a static image, but maybe we could re-generate a new one every day and have it read like "ANDROID WILL BECOME A LOCKED-DOWN PLATFORM IN XYZ DAYS". One possible issue with this approach is that GitHub image references cache their contents, and I'm not sure if this cache is every refreshed…

What is the problem with a more long banners which actually include part of info from site like https://github.com/dustdfg/dustdfg/blob/6a7cfc89401aaa3a012bfd11a67136a0a5af0ecd/README.md it is fully MD based? I mean why timer is so necessary in every piece...

You mean as an image banner?
