the php code. It does make the img but doesn't write the number. It did work previously on other server.

<?php

$imageURL = $_GET['imageURL'];

if($imageURL == "money"){
	$im = imagecreatefrompng("images/gp.png");
}else {
	$imageURL = str_replace(" ", "%20", $imageURL);
	$ch = curl_init();
	$timeout = 5;
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $imageURL);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
	$data = curl_exec($ch);
	curl_close($ch);
	$im = imagecreatefromstring($data);
}

$quantity = $_GET['quantity'];
if($quantity > 1 OR isset($_GET['displayNum'])){
    
    //Fixed the amount display, was a bug I found if the quantity was 10m+
    if($quantity < 100000){
		$color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 0);
		$suffix = '';
    }else if($quantity < 10000000){
		$color = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
		$quantity = floor($quantity / 1000);
		$suffix = 'K';
    }else {
		$color = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 255, 0);
		$quantity = floor($quantity / 1000000);
		$suffix = 'M';
    }

    imagettftext($im, 8, 0, 8, 13, $color, 'arial.ttf', number_format($quantity) . $suffix);
}

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

imagepng($im);

imagedestroy($im);

?>

Having spent years trying to get others to understand that very idea, I've found a fairly simple way of convincing people to post solutions: what you do is
