Sig Rotater?

What is a sig rotater? How can I get one?

 

A sig rotator makes your sigs rotated Everytime you refresha a page you see another sig (Look at mine)

What to you need for this?

1. A host for your sigs.
2. Host must work with php

How to set it up?

1. Upload all the files in a folder on you host.

2. Copy the next code in a notepad file and save it as: index.php

Code:

<?php

if ($dir = opendir("."))
{
$list = buildimagearray($dir);
displayrandomimage($list);
}

// This function reads all the files in the current directory and adds all image files to the array $list[]
function buildimagearray($dir)
{
while (false !== ($file = readdir($dir)))
{
if (!is_dir($file) && getimagesize($file))
{
$list[] = $file;
}
}
return $list;
}

// This function selects a random image, determines the mime type, opens the file for reading,
// and then outputs the image
function displayrandomimage($list)
{
srand ((double) microtime() * 10000000);
$sig = array_rand ($list);

$size = getimagesize ($list[$sig]);
$fp = fopen($list[$sig], "rb");

if ($size && $fp)
{
header("Content-type: {$size['mime']}");
fpassthru($fp);
exit;
}
}
?>

3. Now use this in you sig space: [ img]http://www.yoururl.com/***/index.php[ /img]

Hope this clears it up

Thanks. Thats kinda confusing but ill get it. Can you post some links to image hosters? Or is it just stuff like Imageshack?

 

Is there any free hosts that can let you use php ? If there is post the link please.

 

ive looked everywhere before and i nvr found a free host that works with php

 

there's also a simple javascript that will do:

Code:

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
var how_many_ads = 2;
var now = new Date()
var sec = now.getSeconds()
var ad = sec % how_many_ads;
ad +=1;
if (ad==1) {
banner="http://www.geocities.com/sirkeith2003/fantasyfinished1.jpg";
width="500";
height="90";
}
if (ad==2) {
banner="http://www.geocities.com/sirkeith2003/fp.gif";
width="500";
height="90";
}
document.write('<center>');
document.write('<img src=\"' + banner + '\" width=')
document.write(width + ' height=' + height + ' ');
document.write('</center>');
// End -->
</script>

 

try free webhosts
i am sure you will find somthing there
if you dont try google

 

I want to use this method on other forums. Though I don't think that the other forums allow the ".php" at the end. Any way to change this to a image exetension AND keep the script?

ZERO.

I am a noob when it comes to coding.

 

Hmm are these allowed on gr?

 

I don't know, but probably. It wouldn't take up alot of space in a topic, and it is going to probably be externally hosted.

 

php sig rotators are allowed on GR

 

Nice bump, ludjer...

 

What you do is

make a folder called rot.jpg, then place your index.php and your sigs in
then when u want to put it on some forums just put

Code:

[img]http://yourhost.com/rot.jpg[/img]

 

sig rotators are kinda nifty sumtimes

 

This topic is nearly a year old, closed. This bump was not needed.
