MMS parsing script, and dynamic forum signature script

Hi, not sure if this is the right place to be posting this, but I've developed a couple of fairly useful scripts, and I hope that others might find some use for them as well! Just take a look at my source site for the links.

Basically, the scripts are a parser for Multimedia Messages (MMS, or Picture messages) sent from phones on the Orange network in the UK. This should be fairly easily modifyable to suit your network, as long as they allow you to send MMS from your phone to an email inbox. As it stands, all you need to do is send a photo taken from your phone to an email inbox, without any text etc., and the script will then read the email inbox, parse it, and save the file, along with date info. This should be pretty self-explanatory from the source. You'll need your email inbox to be on the same server as the web site is hosted on, and it also has to be UNIX based. Porting to windows shouldn't be hard.

The other sources, for the signature generator, are just some fairly simple, multipurpose image manipulation functions, which are more useful just as a reference for syntax and what have you.

Anyway, do enjoy, and if you have any questions feel free to email me at (php at madaxe dot net).[/url]
