random avatar

[feest]

hi i've made a script that randomly pics a image and creates it in the document

<?
$random=mt_rand(1,10);
$im = imagecreatefrompng("img$random.PNG");
imagepng($im);
?>

but when i try to use this in my avatar(on an other forum)i need to have the link towards a php file (and that does'nt work) sombody else on that forum had it working so i was wondering if this was possible and what i'm doing wrong?

What do you mean that it "doesn't work" ? The forum's software doesn't allow you to link to a .php file extension? Or, it does link fine, and you simply see a red X?

If the former is the case, you might be able to "cheat" the software by changing the file extension to .png and set PHP to parse .PNG file extensions in a certain directory. I believe I've seen this done before, anyway.

If the latter of the two is the case, can you post us a link to this image script?
