Written a small program that reads your Server Count and Uploads a file containing
"ServerName - Players : Qty"
in a Text file to an FTP of your Choice..
This can then by grabbed by a PHP script to embed in an image.

To Use >
Edit the UserCount.ini file with your details
Run UserCount from your start menu
Click "Connect" to see your user count
Click "Send Data to FTP" to upload the file you just created
Click "Run Every 15 Minutes" to repeatedly send your UserCount file to your FTP

Dynamic Heading Generator
By Stewart Rosenberger
http://www.stewartspeak.com/headings/
This script generates PNG images of text, written in
the font/size that you specify. These PNG images are passed
back to the browser. Optionally, they can be cached for later use.
If a cached image is found, a new image will not be generated,
and the existing copy will be sent to the browser.
Additional documentation on PHP's image handling capabilities can
be found at http://www.php.net/image/
