The analysis package?  LOL, I made my own, you dumbfuck.  What do you 
take me for some amateur level cookie cutter artist dipshit like you? 
Mine pretty much looks at...well, everything.  And it has a whole 
variety of tools for analyzing all the collected user data.  It's 
still only in the beta stages so not all the functionality is present 
yet (like the graphing bits) but what's there clearly shows the true 
level of traffic.  You can actually see the break down too based on 
particular stats like their browser, resolution, etc.  Not all of it 
has been completed yet though.  I still need to add in some tools that 
can examine traffic trends based on referring URL, time of day, and 
what particular files are being accessed. 
 
Eventually when it's completed I plan to package the whole system up 
and sell it off as a cookie cutter construct to lessers like yourself. 
 
Here's a screenshot:

The Flash end of things doesn't concern me much, Cuppycake, that's not 
using *MY* resources.  Although the new version is vastly more 
efficient than the current one (which was originally based on someone 
else's model) and goes well beyond any of the failing suggestions I've 
seen around here.  Most of what I've employed in the new version 
(which I'm hoping to release soon) came from a private, e-mailed 
conversation I had with another developer.  He and I basically took a 
lot of the failing ideas and concepts that deficients like yourself 
presented and then came up with ways of actually implementing them in 
a meaningful way. 
 
That's generally the problem though with deficients like 
yourself...you lack experience.  So you make a lot of suggestions 
which, from your limited perspective might actually be relevant, 
however from an experienced mind they fall up short because they 
adversely affect some other aspect of the design or code.  So 
basically he and I took your failings and then found ways of making 
them work (through some fairly unconventional means I might add).

Which is ironic since the original model for the image saving 
capabilities of the sprite generator actually came from what was, at 
the time, considered to be the de-facto standard way of achieving it. 
 
And again, most of the suggestions that were presented either outright 
didn't work at all, adversely affected some other aspect of the thing 
or were based upon deficient ASSumptions as to how it functioned. 
 
....not that any of that was a real surprise since all the retards like 
yourself who were running at the mouth about it hadn't ever even made 
such a form themselves (or if they had it was like the most extremely 
basic of college flunkie level examples). 
 
>finally, i'd sure be interested in this new version...just to see what you

This coming from the college flunkie whose only measure of 
"stream-lined" comes from the outdated shit he slurped up out of his 
college text books (and mostly misinterpreted). 
 
>yours truly...and, you're happily being added back into my kill-file.  
 
Try and keep your blinders on tighter this time, Dumbfuck.  Lest you 
start fagging up my thread offshoots with your banal idiocy again.
