Write one. It'd be only about ten lines long. Maybe fifteen if you want

I havent looked at the above but assume its a text hit counter .

But to produce a graphic file hit counter then all you really need is 10
gif or jpg images that are numbered 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 .

- grab the text count
- create a background image (or load a image you done earlier)
- paste each 0-9 image onto the background image

You will then have a graphic file hit counter image that you can display
instead of a plain text counter .

Roughly speaking , The same php/gd skills used to create a image code
are used to create a hit counter graphic file .

Excuse the silly question .....

But if your opinions are so important and stuff - then why dont other
people quote them on usenet .

Isnt it true that you yourself only post to usenet in a amateur capacity
in order to boost and pump up your own ego ? .

Hit counters are _never_ professional. They are of no interest for the
users (use rand() if you want to show an impressive number to them) and
the real informations are available in the server's logfile.

People do have page-view (counter) information on websites and it helps
the viewer in understanding popularity of that particular page.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=mOeuar5LmtU

For example this has been viewd 280,XXX times, voted 510 times, and has
a 4-* rating. All these are "counters" of different kind and provide a
lot of information related to this particular video.

Perhaps you mean that stuff like sitemeter is boring, but it isn't
completely useless or unprofessional.

It's fine for those who need their egos stroked. But it's not professional.

What influence would have the popularity of a page on my search behavior?
I mostly seek pages that aren't that popular.
Just like entering a super market and knowing what product is bought most.
Not relevant whatsoever.
