A feature to allow users to refresh the cache for just their flair. This is slightly more do-able
That would be quite useful, especially for the newly-initiated who move through the levels faster than established monks. Something like http://www.perlmonksflair.com/<username>.jpg?purge to force an update, perhaps?
You may want to keep an eye on how much that's used so that people don't put too much load on the server by constantly purging their badge, of course. Alternatively, you could do some sort of rate limiting for purging as well -- say, once per day, or (if you want to allow a little more flexibility) three times per day and seven times per week.
Thanks to both you and your friend for creating this, BTW!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
