I'm writing in this thread because I'm guessing VB's box is full.VB, is it difficult to make the auto update scoreboard seen in some of the sigs? I wanted to do it with a google doc I have.

Not full! But since you asked here now everyone is probably itching to know. The image-creation script is written in php. The trick was that FCP does not allow linking to dynamic images (images that are generated on load) so I had to come up with another way for the image to update itself. I did this by including the image-generation script in the leaderboard page on the website so that every time someone loaded the leaderboard, the .png image would be updated for people's sigs. The code starts with a premade picture that I did in photoshop, then just prints the text on to it as needed:

//make png for signatures$im = imagecreatefrompng("images/lbtemplate.png");//define colors$white = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF); $gray = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0x33, 0x33, 0x33); $black = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00); $yellow = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0xAA, 0xAA, 0x00); $green = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0x00, 0xBB, 0x00);$blue = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0x00, 0x00, 0xBB);$ltblue = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0x66, 0x66, 0xFF);$red = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0xBB, 0x00, 0x00); $orange = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0xBB, 0x44, 0x22); $gray = imageColorAllocate ($im, 0x88, 0x88, 0x88);	$teamcolor = $green;$scorecolor = $green;	$row1x = 195;$score1x = 410;$row2x=455;$score2x = 670;$top = 17;$vertspace = 12;$fontpath = "/images/Bitsumishi.ttf";	//draw text for pre-tourney period//imagettftext($im, 24, 0, 300, 45, $gray, "/images/Bitsumishi.ttf", "NOW REGISTERING");	//draw text leaderboardimagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row1x, $top, $white, "/images/Bitsumishi.ttf", "1. $a_teamname[0]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score1x, $top, $white, "/images/Bitsumishi.ttf", "$a_teamscore[0]");	imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row1x, $top+$vertspace, $yellow, $fontpath, "2. $a_teamname[1]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score1x, $top+$vertspace, $yellow, $fontpath, "$a_teamscore[1]");	imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row1x, $top+$vertspace*2, $yellow, $fontpath, "3. $a_teamname[2]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score1x, $top+$vertspace*2, $yellow, $fontpath, "$a_teamscore[2]");	imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row1x, $top+$vertspace*3, $teamcolor, $fontpath, "4. $a_teamname[3]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score1x, $top+$vertspace*3, $teamcolor, $fontpath, "$a_teamscore[3]");	imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row1x, $top+$vertspace*4, $teamcolor, $fontpath, "5. $a_teamname[4]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score1x, $top+$vertspace*4, $scorecolor, $fontpath, "$a_teamscore[4]");	imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row2x, $top, $teamcolor, $fontpath, "6. $a_teamname[5]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score2x, $top, $scorecolor, $fontpath, "$a_teamscore[5]");	imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row2x, $top+$vertspace, $teamcolor, $fontpath, "7. $a_teamname[6]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score2x, $top+$vertspace, $scorecolor, $fontpath, "$a_teamscore[6]");	imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row2x, $top+$vertspace*2, $teamcolor, $fontpath, "8. $a_teamname[7]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score2x, $top+$vertspace*2, $scorecolor, $fontpath, "$a_teamscore[7]");	imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row2x, $top+$vertspace*3, $teamcolor, $fontpath, "9. $a_teamname[8]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score2x, $top+$vertspace*3, $scorecolor, $fontpath, "$a_teamscore[8]");	imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $row2x, $top+$vertspace*4, $teamcolor, $fontpath, "10. $a_teamname[9]");imagettftext($im, 9, 0, $score2x, $top+$vertspace*4, $scorecolor, $fontpath, "$a_teamscore[9]");		//draw text for winners/*imagettftext($im,12,0,380,18,$ltblue,$fontpath, "*** WINNERS ***");	imagettftext($im,9,0,220,31,$white,$fontpath,"1. $a_teamname[0]: $a_player1[0] & $a_player2[0]");imagettftext($im,9,0,620,31,$white,$fontpath,"$a_teamscore[0]");	imagettftext($im,9,0,220,41,$green,$fontpath,"2. $a_teamname[1]");imagettftext($im,9,0,620,41,$green,$fontpath,"$a_teamscore[1]");	imagettftext($im,9,0,220,51,$green,$fontpath,"3. $a_teamname[2]: $a_player1[2] & $a_player2[2]");imagettftext($im,9,0,620,51,$green,$fontpath,"$a_teamscore[2]");	*/		//make the imageimagepng($im,"images/leaderboard.png");imagedestroy($im);
