I figured out how to change the colors. I wasnt quite sure what the actual Surmunity colors were so I just approximated.

The blue looks nicer.

Just a thought:
If a server is going slow, and all the people riot on the server in the same topic, and someone goes to read the topic, won't the load increase since there are so many php generated images being used... I don't know how much load/CPU a php generated image takes, but yeah... Mabey they surpass should have one central load image per server that way the image only gets queried once per view if the people on the same server have the same image in their sig. Because if you took everyone on PassWhatever and had all of them post on the same topic with different images, won't the load gradually as you scroll down and read the rest of the message?

The load generated from the same image source would the same as if everyone had their own, wouldn't it? It's either being called on 7 times from one place, or 7 times from different places. ?

The flaw with the script is that it doesn't cache... I know the purpose is to have "live" stats, but it's still likely being fetched and generated on every pageload. The overhead is likely minimal, but each request adds up. If you're concerned about that, setup a cron that writes a GIF every 5-10 minutes.

This only works on my dedicated server if it is in the server's htdocs folder and run from there. If it is in one of the accounts on the dedicated machine, it doesn't work.
