Hey the FreebiereferralsPTC team is looking for a coder to code us a live banner anyone interested?

[Shawn]

I could probably do it, I'm free all next week

But, look for a user named Delusional.  He is fast at making stuff, and it  will be better

[FreebieReferralsPTC]

hmmm how much would you charge?

[Shawn]

Idk, I usually make stuff first, then charge what I think is suitable based on my time+effort

so guys -- i meant coders.. do you use web services for getting live stats? or do you use other techniques/methods

[Delusional]

php and GD image library

[Shawn]

php and GD image library

Yes, that's pretty much what all coders use, unless they are in the dark ages of coding xD

sample

Code:

<?php

header("Content-type: image/png");
$string = $_GET['text'];
$im     = imagecreatefrompng("images/banner.png");
$text = imagecolorallocate($im, 220, 210, 60);
$px     = (imagesx($im) - 7.5 * strlen($string)) / 2;
imagestring($im, 3, $px, 9, $string, $text);
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);

?>
