Don't see anything.
Firefox with NoScript might be blocking it for me though.
*shrug*

The ping probably takes too long and the image load just times out. Ping each time an image load is probably a bad idea. :p

the ping causes the image to view then refresh once the page actually loads. Its kinda nifty. Im curious what why it doesnt show up for bubbles tho.

**edit
hmm, i went to check my domain and I get this.
[an error occurred while processing this directive]

lol, now the question is, did I cause that or did something else do it? I should have this fixed fairly soon.

It was definitely NoScript for Firefox blocking it.
When I allowed temporary permissions in NoScript it showed up.

If I try to open it directly I get:

The image “http://www.onykage.com/forumsig/forumsig.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Did you set a htaccess to force .jpg to run as php?

Here's a problem with it:

Warning: shell_exec() [function.shell-exec]: Unable to execute 'ping -c 2 <Your IP>;wait' in *censored* on line 229

**edit by Onykage

well, i gotta mess with it, they did an update yesterday, and php 5 was crashing. so, i still gotta mess with it, and its been a late start today.

WOW..

hehe, I had a process overload. Its kinda buggy but its working now atleast. If it kills my server processes again, i'll just remove this ping and try to do it another way besides using shellcmd().

It appears to be working now.

red you know me better then that

You should look at the script, it auto checks and repairs the .htaccess if its not set correctly.
