Hi, I was wondering if you folks could help me. I am a long-time
player of an adoptables game called Dragon Cave. In this game, you
catch dragon eggs and raise them. Some eggs are rarer than others, so
for most players, the goal is to catch the rare eggs.

Around Christmastime, the rarest dragon egg of all is available, the
Holly egg. But hundreds of people are competing for those eggs, and
with my internet connection and ancient computer, I am at a
disadvantage, and I haven't had any luck catching them in previous
years. This is the page where we will be catching those eggs:
http://dragcave.net/abandoned

Unfortunately, the desired egg could show up anywhere on that page,
and by the time you move your mouse over to it to click it, someone
else usually has already caught it. Most of the eggs are 26 x 28
pixels, but the Holly egg is 32 x 34 pixels, and as far as I know, it
is the only egg that size. It occurred to me to wonder if maybe there
was a way to script this page so that all images which are 32 x 34
pixels will automatically appear in the top left corner of the page,
or in some other specific spot? If I can make it so these eggs will
always appear in the same spot, then I can actually have a fighting
chance of catching one.

Can anyone give me some advice on how to start making a script like
this, or point me to a place where people write scripts for others for
free? I don't know anything about scripting.

Thanks!

Robert

Thank you for sharing those with me (they may indeed come in handy),
but I'm still hoping someone can help me with the script I'm looking
for.

Hi Rebel,

I'm quite new to writing greasemonkey/user scripts so I'm still in the
learning stage. But this seems like an interesting idea. I will try to
look into this. Will contact you if I need more info.

Cheers!
