Dynamic Image Loading SLOW

[h3r0]

Hello,

I am creating dynamic images for stats for a video game. But they are taking a while to load. So I figured I'd cache them and have a cron job run every half hour or so and update the actual images. But I can't export the image (right now its being created using

header('Content-type: image/png');

Do I have to remove that for them to save correctly? I get this error when trying to save using imagepng:

The image “[url]http://****.com//****.png”[/url] cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Or is there a faster way to cache the images?

I'm new to creating Dynamic images, so anything should help 😉

How are you "caching" your images in the first place?

Well that's what I'm trying to do. I can't get the image to save itself without getting an error. Sorry if it was a little bit unclear.

So ... how are you trying to "cache" your images in the first place?

I guess I'm asking whats the best way to cache them. When it loads dynamically every time, it takes about 3-5 seconds to load. I was thinking of saving the images to decrease load time, but is there a better way?
