KickIt For CommunityServer 2007

You may have noticed that every post here on Devlicio.us and CodeBetter.Com have a little KickIt control at the end.  This is generated by a CommunityServer Module which automatically creates this control using DotNetKicks.com's (which is an awesome site BTW) image services, and allows posts to be "Kicked (a good thing)" ...

 More interesting to you if  you use Community Server is to do this on your own blog, so I'm releasing this and source in the CodeBetter.CommunityServerExtensions package over on CodeBetter.

Your instructions state that I just need to drop the dll in the bin directory and add the following line of code to the config file:

<add name="KickIt"

type ="CodeBetter.CommunityServerExtensions.Modules.KickItModule, CodeBetter.CommunityServerExtensions" />

Where in the config?  under the extensionModules section?

Thanks.

Jason,

This goes in the <csModules> section.  Sorry about that!

Good idea Brendan. Lately a new feature for customizing the apprearance of the Kick It image has been introduced, you may consider adding that feature to your module as well.

You can see it in action when you submit a story, a widget lets you choose the colors of the image, which in turn are passed via querystring to the image generation handler.
