Re: text&image

Hi, Sounds to me like you could be killing your server with so many images being dynamically generated. How about keeping a set of pre generated images and use your php script to embed them into html (depending on whether the server is up or down). You can for example create a large image in any graphic editing software (i use the GIMP) and cut it up into pieces and your php script and decide which server where shoudl have the active image and which server should have the dead images. hope this doesn't sound too confusing best regards raditha Maciek Hofstede wrote:
