Is there any way to have the profiler make up a small .gif or .jpg file with your level/experience (as a % bar total of 'complete'), a mini picture, class, guild and so on?

They exist for most FPS games, and I've seen them around for WoW I think. The idea is you use them as an image in your sig on forums.

Lots of people have multiple characters - it'd be great if you could incorporate that, but I don't see how you'd know which character belonged to whom, however it'd be great for an animated gif to flip or fade between characters that you've elected to show.

Even if the profiler takes what it can, and you fill in the rest via a webform - I dunno. Would also advertise the site really well, too.

Cheers

We have plans to add auto-generated forum signatures which will give you similar functionality. Is that what you're thinking?

Yes - similar to this BF2 one (http://bf2sig.l0ser.net/).

Although the difficulty is spanning multiple characters in the one sig, and selectable stats to be displayed (and the ability to retrieve different stats from the public side of the character)

It'd be nice if all your characters were listed on one side, and different stats 'scroll' through after their names. Or something. I have a load of ideas but I'll hold off until you get something working :D

I'm pleased, and happily waiting to change my ugly simple text one on our guild forums and so on...

Cheers

Might consider adding a profiler to the gate of Kheshatta on the PvE servers, as that certainly is the "business end" of the game? Anyone who is anyone has to go there after 70, and it's a great place to pick up raid gear, and no matter how you arrive you always end up there.

Alternatively, near the Aquilonian boatman or the Stygian boatman in Khemi would be good - as it stands, the majority of folks who get picked up are under 20 in Tortage, and I've swung by on my 80 to see if it picked me up, and it mustn't have been running.

Hey, we have put some characters in Kheshatta on a couple of servers.
