PHP Dynamic Signature.

Okay so I'm trying to make a dynamic signature that can read from a table, or webpage.

I've read a few guides on how to make them but I don't understand PHP so it hasn't managed to work for me.

If anyone could give me some help on this I would appreciate it very much!

To make a dynamic anything on the web, you'll need to understand at least one scripting language (PHP or JavaScript are popular, but ASP is also used in some cases). If you want help with a specific problem, you'll have to give us more specifics about what you want to do (such as linking us to a tutorial you looked at, or describing more clearly what you want to accomplish). If you want recommendations for tutorials, I'd personally suggest the W3Schools site, and I'm sure others have their personal preferences as well.

 

It sounds like what you're looking to do is either something like the danasoft "Ip signatures" or something like the various signatures for different games, to show character stats and the like.

The way those are set up is largely through PHP. You'll have to learn at the very least how to write a php script, and a place to host the file on.

The easiest way to do that is through GD in PHP. Here's a quick example which creates a image that shows the output of the date() function:

Code:

<?php
header("Content-type: image/png");
$im = @imagecreate(250, 75)
or die("Cannot Initialize new GD image stream");
$background_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
$text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 233, 14, 91);
$string1 = date();
imagestring($im, 5, 5, 5,  $string1, $text_color);
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
?>
