Description
Updated 4/11/2013: Fixes a timezone issue with conversion.
A simple userscript that shows deviantART standard time in your menubar alongside your local time.
This has a multitude of uses such as when you come across a contest or event and need to check the time posted (normally based on deviantART HQ time) versus your local time. Simply check the difference in the menubar and then work the time for the event out! Or when posting a help desk ticket, you can check the time at deviantART's HQ to include as a reference.
------------------------------------
Install For Firefox here !
Requires Mozilla Firefox and the Greasemonkey extension.
Or Chrome by following instructions below:
1) Go and download the script here to your computer.
2) Open Extensions (wrench/three lines icon -> Tools -> Extensions) in Chrome.
3) Drag and drop the saved file onto this window and click Install.
Not compatible with Tampermonkey at this stage (breaks Message Center for no reason at all), it is being worked upon.
------------------------------------
This script is based off PurpelBlur 's visual suggestion here .
If you find bugs related to the time being incorrect, please note me and I'll fix them as soon as I can
This is an unofficial script and not run, maintained or otherwise by deviantART.

Hey there!
I've been using this for some time (thank you for it!) but recently i had to reinstall Firefox and since then i had problems reinstalling this script. A few weeks ago it gave me an error, like connection timeout (i tried many times that day and the next one), and today it kept loading, and loading, and loading... until finally the page appeared. I managed to install it, but i thought you should know the page takes ages to load sometimes (i checked my connection, it's the usual). : )

Sadly the location of the script and thus it's download speed is out of my hands right now.

Yeah i know, i just told you in case others experience the same problems so you'd know the script itself is ok, but its page takes a lot to load sometimes : )

This is awesome. Did we have in here?

Uh, I have a few ideas to further improve this script and add some functions. Are you ok with me forking the code and keeping you updated about changes, or do you want to collaborate in any other way?

Fork away, that's what it is for.
If you are going to publish and share it just attribute me as the original author.

Uh... this script somehow overwrites dA's own scripts on the site, breaking the comments function (and possibly other things).

It cannot overwrite anything.
Have you checked you your browser and greasemonkey is supported? Tampermonkey is explicitly not supported.

Yeah, just figured that out, as I stated in my second comment. Do you know why it fails on TM?
π: 0 β©: 1
Not sure what problem it causes with TM, never had a chance to look into it.

Nevermind. Just saw the comment about Tampermonkey below.

Very nice script

Not at this moment in time. Maybe in the future.

You can change it yourself if you want.
In the editor of your userscripts addon (Greasemonkey or Scriptish), open the script and go to line 64:var localTimeStr = moment().format("h:mm a");
and change "h:mm a"Β to "HH:mm". Β Do the same for line 67:
var dATimeStr = moment().tz("America/Los_Angeles").format("h:mm a");
The result should look like this:
// grab local time and timezone offset and format to string
var localTimeStr = moment().format("HH:mm");
// format to string
Β var dATimeStr = moment().tz("America/Los_Angeles").format("HH:mm");Now just save the changes and reload dA.

Ahhh thank you very much 8D But is there any way to remove "am" and "pm"? Then it would be perfect
π: 0 β©: 1
If you do everything as mentioned above, the am/pm should be gone aswell.

Ah, right xD I've got it, thanks

So you can confirm it works on Opera? If you can that'd be great.

Right, perfect excuse.
π: 0 β©: 1
Not excuse. Just a logical reason. Why bother reimplementing something when it works of two of the largest browsers that most dA users actually use.
I'm sure there is a Tampermonkey/Greasemonkey equivalent on Opera.

As I said - perfect excuse. Not sure why do I need repeat myself.

You're just being mean. This person here is sharing this for free. And if you can't use it then don't whine over it because it doesn't cost you anything money.Β

What are you trying to prove here?

One does not simply use sarcasm on the internet.

One can try. One can try and practice. One can master with time.

That sounds great, but why not just have it on the event itself?.....of course this might be less of a hassle..... π: 0 β©: 1
It's in case the event has forgotten to put it in or if you are too lazy to check the event again but know the PST/dAST time.

Okays. I didn't think it all out until three minutes after asking π: 0 β©: 1
