Textad about Hacker's Diet Graph?

July 9, 2006 11:27 AM

A long while ago, when there were Textads that people could purchase down the right hand side of the front page, somebody here had taken out an ad and had a wonderful site which would generate a picture of a graph based on the information available in The Hacker's Diet. The website is long gone now but I wonder if I could either get the code for the site or if somebody could direct me to something to generate a picture dynamically to put on my blog? The site in question was www.weighttrends.com or maybe just one "t" www.weightrends.com .

Hopefully Metafilter related enough because of the textad. It's where I found the site and the person that made the site was a member here. Otherwise, I can make it an AskMe question.

It was weightrends (one t). You can still see the main page at the Wayback Machine, but not the graphs or the About page.

That was made by our own oraknabo, was it not? Maybe you could reach him via the site in his profile, see if he still has the code.

I don't know what the graph was, but there's an excel spreadsheet, called weight-tracker, on this site which provides a floating average of your weight and also provides a graph.
