syntax

(Custom parameters are marked red, fixed code appears blue).

Construct an URL like :

http://moons.users.mcs2.netarray.com/phase/moon

Append desired moon-size (pixel) with '?':

? d=100

Append with '&' your geographic position* (width N/S, length E/W) in degrees,
like (example: Berlin = 52.51° North, 13.41° East) :

& p=52.51N,13.41E

Finally append desired moon-colors (background_dark_light)
in hexadecimal form #RRGGBB(TT), with TT=00 for transparency* :

& c=00000000_0000AA_FF00FF

The whole link will then look like this :

http://moons.users.mcs2.netarray.com/phase/moon ?d=100&p=52.51N,13.41E&c=000000_0000AA_FF00FF
