i have a problem if i want it auto updata every 15 mins

how should i creat the cron job?

Or...

0,15,30,45 * * * * wget http://www.yoursite.com/forums/signature.php

i type this

0,15,30,45 http://www.site.com/forum/signature.php

but it show up cant find page??

where do i doing wrong? :alien:

That wasn't a URL, that was a line for the cron job. If you have cpanel, you can create it there...

sorry..not know much about english and still dont know how to do?

where to creat?creat a txt file name cron or....

thankz again........

How to change the text's charset?
thanks.

Is there anyway this can be in another format other than .jpg? JPG's quality is absolutely horrible.

In the signature.php file, find...

$img = imagecreate($width,$height);

...and change to...

$img = imagecreatetruecolor($width,$height);

...if you have not done so. This improved mine. By default it is set to zero compression with the line...

$komprimierung = 100;

created with "imagecreatetruecolor" and 80 as compression (and only 25kb)

I've suspended many signatures because of users not reading the forum rules here regarding signature dimensions. Please read my big notice in the first post of this thread before using this mod for your signature here.

Damnit, 60 pixels too big... oh well, I will drop it to 300 then...

Done, happy? :)

I managed to make the file run with a .png, however this function, imagecreatetruecolor, does not run with my current version of PHP. I'll be upgrading soon.

I think for PNG's you can just use imagecreate()

Eh...imagecreatefrompng() is best for creating an image from a PNG...

However the GD library in 4.3.0 should use true color stuff instead of the normal functions because...long story, forgot the details, short story is the outputted image's color pallete looks horrible if you don't.

]everyone interested why should visit www.php.net and search for those functions :) there's a lot of usefull stuff to read ;) be a man and make yourself a gift instead of asking someone (/me looks @ dictator *gg* :D)

I'm sorry, if you have GD2 with an earlier version of php will this work? Our isp had set the cronjob, confirmed that GD2 was installed and the whole output of signature.php is a bunch of errors, as written a couple of postings above. :(

Try taking "forum/" out of the config variables.

In other words:
And take the forum/ out in all the other variables. Upload it and see if it works.

Very nice, I use this image in several places now :)

No matter what image I try to use for my sig, it keeps showing up as just an all-white box with the stats over it. Am I doing something wrong, or...?

for running a php-file with cron, just try this command:

wget -q http://www.yourdomain.tld/signature.php >/dev/null

It works fine 4 me. ;)

this is cool, i do like the idea, pity it would make my current sig a violations :cry:

No one knows why this is happening? :(

Here's the image example if you need to know what I mean...

http://www.expectedmiracles.com/foru...r/signatur.jpg

working fine here, thanks tina :laugh:

I suspended your signature; read the [high]BIG HIGHLIGHTED TEXT[/high] in the first post.

nice - intersting!

Anyone want to try and help me out here? I'd really appreciate it.

what do u need help with?

My problem is that the signature image just shows up all white with the stats in it, no matter what I use for the sig.jpg starting image. I have no idea why, my host has the latest GD 2.0 with jpeg support enabled, and the configuration seems pretty straightfoward. Am I missing something stupid?

Great hack :banana:

Install clicked !!

Cheers

@Crazy Pete, are you using all the defaults? or what have you changed?

I am. The only thing I changed was the filename from signature.php to sigimage.php, because I also installed hellsatan's signature image 3.0 hack which uses the same filename.

As for the defaults, I left them as-is. I guess I'll try redownloading it and trying it again.

Nope, that didn't work either. Now it's not even creating the image at all. :(

is ur folder chmodded to 700/777? and is your folder called signatur?

Yep, it is.

and your calling your image like this?

images/signatur/signatur.jpg

Yup, but like I said now it won't even create the signatur.jpg image at all. Before it would, but it was just the white box with the stats over it. Now that I reuploaded the file, it doesn't even create the image. Hrm...

well, without actually seeing it i couldn't tell ya whats wrong then, it works fine for me though

i uploaded the sig.php to my forums folder and then my root folder because it didnt work.
my problem is that when i run the .com/forums/signature.php i get a page not found, and when i run .com/signature.php i get a blank page.

bump

when you first run the page, it will display the basic image with your forum stats on it, upload it to your forum directory and make sure your images/signatur/ folder is chmodded to 700/777 then put the default image in the signatur folder, also make sure signature is spelled the same thorought, in the file it doesn't have the ending 'e'
