Special for “Project Elf”
I've developed a tiny and simple extension for google chrome (it's my first experience)
!http://habreffect.ru/files/dd2/ac97464ac/newqtdn.png(QtDNBadge)!

It shows your badge on the site, your points and count of needed points to the next level.
You need to be authorized on site.

QtDN Team published API, Thanks QtDN Team.

And now, Enjoy!

You need input your QtDN id (the last number in the URL of your profile) on the options page and wait ten minutes.

ah thanks, did it just now ... me primarily a FF user :)
how easy is it to extend this to show the number of new posts and on click take me directly to the "new posts" page

For it need adding authentification :) I think about it, may be I'll add it to next version.
Though... May be auth don't needed.

Is it impossible to update info after new id was entered? It will be much more user-friendly I think, but don't know if it is possible in chrome extensions.

Also I'm not sure about new posts counter. Devteam should clarify here will it affect count of new posts or not (just because you have already entered the page to check this counter).

Denis, update after new id was entered - possible, but now I don't know how.

Then maybe refresh button for manual refreshing? As workaround before updating on new id will be done

for anyone aiming for the next level, this extension will be quite useful ... not for the mad scientists though, 0 points to next level :P .... so if you can bring in the new posts counter then it'll be great :)
