Or maybe Sleazy, depends how you look at it.

I had a small contest and the winner would get my sig space for 2 weeks.

He forgot about it so i made a post that he had to claim my sig soon.

Sleazy picked that up wrong and posted something about being amazed that i sold my sig.
Someone picked that up and thats where the first offers started.

If you look at that sleazydream post you will see thats where the first money publicly was offered. Ofcourse sig selling is as old as the net, but the whole gfy hype started in that thread.

I dont sig whore, but my signature is used worldwide on thousands of messages boards. Just yesterday it did more than 2,250,000 impressions.

In fact, the damn thing has become so popular I've had to curb the "custom" signatures people made on my server (over 33,000 of them)!

SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

I wish I knew how to do that. Is it just a line of code I assume?

It's a PHP script using referrer information. This "trick" is just formatting that text in a nice little graphic and then using an htaccess to rewrite the JPS file to execute the sciript.

I let people create their own custom versions (with their own random quotes); but when i though a few hundred people would do it I ended up with 30,000+ custom signatures in less than a month. The bandwidth for the signature alone is over 12GB a day!

Ya, I could probably figure it out eventually, given time, which I don't have.

I think it's easier to just pay the nineteen bucks.

Are all of the hosted custom options that are available still available with the source code purchase?

Oh .. I don't want it for a sig, I want it for http://adult-site-traffic.com/stats/order actually.

and u are still paying the bandwidth?

how does the text get into a jpg on the fly? and that graphic says it's a jpg but it has 'transparency' - i'm SOOOOOOOOO CONFUSED!

I moved my sites to Vacares Hosting. I've saved money, my hair is thicker, lost some weight too! Thanks Sly!

It's not really hard to understand the concept, it's really a good idea actually, and I bet it sells well for the novelty it is.

Bandwidth, the hosted sig is $16.00 for 6 months. It would be pretty hard to burn that much transfer for each single sig. He's doing OK on the profit margin

Well, you can certainly modify the code to provide all those options. In the custom sig deal I just have alot of flags to determine if it should be included.

I do have to pay for all the bandwidth since its on my servers (which is why its hard to offer it as a "free" service).

I actually wrote it at the beginning of the year just for myself. It was only when I noticed my bandwidth usage going through the roof that I figured out so many peoplew ere using it! lol
