Title: Is there a replacement for the dynamic value image?
Post by: SgtSpike on March 04, 2014, 10:58:47 PM
I've used this on my Minecraft website, but it's no longer relevant because it still looks up MtGox prices.  Is there an equivalent for this that pulls data from Bitstamp instead?

Thanks.  I'm looking specifically for something that will generate an image though, as I need to include it in BBCode scripting.

Most web-programming languages have a function that can generate an image or a captcha or something from a string of text.... not so sure about BBCode.

If you own any other websites, it might be a good idea to generate/host the image there and just embed it on your Minecraft Forum.  :P Thinking... thinking...


.... if you could pick out what you want specifically from an exchange's API info, you could have it submitted to a graphical service, or some such text-to-image generator for free:

And have it converted to price.jpg or something. How you would go about making that automatic is beyond me though. There could be a service out there like that. Probably not though.

Good luck botting!

There are some free web image (http://www.rasteredge.com/how-to/asp-net-imaging/imaging-processing/) programming controls and you can use them to create different image formats (such as Bitmap (http://www.rasteredge.com/formats/bitmap/), Png, Tiff, etc).

I realize this, I was just hoping for something that already existed and wouldn't require programming on my part.
