$onlineurl = file_get_contents('ONLINE LINK HERE'); // T.EX blablabla.com/online.php? lol$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM server_status");
$online = "Users Online!";

$row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ); 
$image = imagecreatefrompng('images/banner.png'); 
$font_color = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 0, 0); 
imagefttext($image, 20, 0, 417, 30, $font_color, './arial.ttf', $row['users_online']); 
imagefttext($image, 8, 0, 398, 45, $font_color, './arial.ttf', $online); 
imagefttext($image, 20, 0, 394, 77, $font_color, './arial.ttf', $num_rows); 
header('Content-type: image/png'); 
imagepng($image); 
imagedestroy($image);

You should not encourage people to lie about statistics, it is bad for everyone.

header('Content-type: image/png');
$onlineurl = file_get_contents('http://www.blazehotel.info/online.cfm'); // Users online file poop? lol

$font = 'Espar_Arial_Classic.ttf'; //Use your own
$handle = imagecreatefrompng('banner.png'); // Background Image
$bg_color = imagecolorallocate ($handle, 135, 206, 250);
