Counters, Counters Everywhere!

I started looking around various websites for a simple counter to place on my blog, however all I came across was colorful, fancy "digit" looking counters, I didn't want to signup to anyting, passing yet more spam lists my email...blah blah...so, I made my own.

For those of you out there reading this (all 1 of you lol) if you want a simple counter, like mine (to the right) you can do 1 of 2 things.

1. Here's the code, upload/install onto your website and link as instructed, below.
(Your website must support PHP 4 or greater and have the GD libraries enabled, Any questions, leave a comment pls)

2. Drop me a line and I'll set you up on my webspace and you can just link to that.
(Don't worry it will only count your hits not combine yours and mine hehe)



Install Instructions!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upload the 2 files, if you have a chmod option on your ftp client ensure count.txt has been "chmod 770", basically means the system and you can read/write/open, everyone else get a "Access Denied" message. Then just link to the img.php as an image, Easy!
<img src="http://www.yourwebsite.com/img.php?Message=hits since 2005" title="My Counter" />

Stay Safe Folks,

STAR WARS: REVELATIONS


STAR WARS: REVELATIONS (Mirror)
(The makers website is clearly being hounded by the Star Wars fans world wide as it wasn't responding when I posted this, but do take a look: http://panicstruckpro.com/revelations)

An excellent FanFilm! - Well worth a look if you can.

It amazes me how these people make these films with no real budget, no promise of "making millions" (or indeed hundreds/thousands), but still they do (and do a great job!) True Fans!. /salute.

Revelations is very good, good special effects, cool story, A* work.

Other Excellent FanFilms also at www.theforce.net, along with a lot more cool stuff about Star Wars!

Enjoy
