# desc: pngpix was inspired by the venerable pixelgif.com. However, I like pngs
# better . . . Okay, so this works best with some .htaccess voodoo. The
# script needs to see a query-string like colour/transparency. You can do
# URIs as script.php?colour/transparency, or script/colour/transparency.
# You choose. For random colours, provide no arguments. For random colours
# with specified transparency, provide a first argument != six chars, with
# a second argument either hex (2 chars) or dec (3 chars) from 0 to 127
# for alpha channel. Just remember that Internet Exploder doesn't handle
# png alpha channels properly. I guess MS doesn't like anything that's
# free and open . . .
#
# Oh, this also requires that PHP be compiled with the GD library.
#
# todo: height/width alteration and random transparency? Easy, but I'm not sure
# I'd ever use them, and I like to avoid feature creep. If you want to do
# the first one, just be sure you alter the cache name to reflect size!
#
# Also, a cache timeout of sorts would be nice. I'll probably put that in
# v0.2a . . . it'll be necessary if you serve this to the public rather
# than keeping it for personal use.
