Want to do some scale testing if possible, see what kind of performance hit this may make server side.

This is a Live Signature or Banner PNG, with Player Counts. So far two varieties, see the links below.

If it does make a huge performance drop, I may pull it, but I will do so gracefully, so anyone willing to help and throw it up as part of their signature won't be left in the dust if I do pull it, it will just down grade into a static image giving time for anyone to pull it from their signature settings if they so choose.

I know someone may ask, "Why are they different %", lol, so I will answer before it is asked, it's not an error, it's a difference in cache delay. The B&S Logo is being considered for use on the B&S site, and is setup with a 15 minute delay. The other larger v^3 designed signature is set up for 5 minute cache delay. So in the difference, they can actually pull different numbers at the time of cache.

Looks cool. So it's for anyone's signature? I might use it.

rakiru, I was having some trouble with your data source, it was returning false 0s, which I'm guessing your weeding out from your graphs, but since I had it setup just to pull the most recent it was causing the image to break. I meant no offence by switching it over, pwease don't be mad at me :D

yeah the more that use it, the better idea I will get of how it affects server performance. Going to try and get something setup to benchmark it a bit

Added it and made it link to rakirus playercount graph.

Ok, I am currently using one as my signature so hopefully a lot of people will use it! :D

Heh, no offence taken, I was just curious. Yeah, the 0 happens when there's a problem grabbing the data (it should be -1, but apparently not). I've been meaning to look into that, but it doesn't matter for the graph as it's only a single point.

Here's a cool , B&S Logo Version, with the Logo text being the progress meter, an idea from TB!
